How To Dress if You are Visiting Canada in the Winter

Don’t worry! You’ll survive the cold!

If you want to know whether wearing six layers of clothing is good enough to withstand a Canadian winter, it is probably enough to keep you warm. However, it is not practical and comfortable.

If you want to ride the slopes or spend a day in the great outdoors, then you need to dress properly. Let’s get down to this.

To effectively keep yourself toasty warm during the winter season, use layers.

Base Layer

To stay warm, you need to keep dry. A good base layer helps wick away excess moisture and sweat. The last thing you need is a damp shirt sticking to your skin.

Optional Layer

If you withstand the cold pretty well, you can forgo this layer.

I like to wear a sweatshirt or a light sweater over the base layer.

Middle Layer

After your base and optional layers, you’ll need a middle layer.

The middle layer functions to keep you warm and cozy. Fleece is a great option here.

Fleece is my personal choice as well. Bonus points if there are pockets included!

The middle layer helps trap heat between the layers, keeping you warm.

Outer Layer or Shell

The shell is perhaps one of the most crucial layers. It protects you against the elements, like wind, rain and snow.

When choosing your outer layer, make sure it is waterproof. You will probably also see other featured properties like being water repellent and/or wind resistance.

These three or four layers keep your core warm. I love how it is lightweight and effective! I loathe bulky and uncomfortable clothes in the winter.

We also need to make sure our feet, hands and head are warm.

Good quality hats, socks and mittens work great. Make sure they are waterproof too!

And there you have it! Putting together your winter gear can cost a pretty penny.

However, I bought my gear many winters ago and I’m still wearing them now.

It starts as an investment, but over the years, it will prove it’s worth.
