Absolute Best Clothing Items In Terms of Warmth

[Gary Childress]

What are the warmest clothing items you've found in the game. Generally I have found that even though the animal skin clothing items that you can make at the work bench have great insulation and durability, they're usually heavier than equally warm synthetic material clothing that you can find scattered around different parts of the maps. So far, I would say the best clothing items are:

1. Head: Balaclava/Rabbit Skin Hat
2. Outer Torso: Expedition Parka
3. Inner Torso: Cowichan Sweater
4. Outer Legs: Snow Pants
5. Inner Legs: Wool Long Underwear
6. Hands: Gauntlets/Rabbit Skin Mitts
7. Inner Feet: Climbing Socks
8. Outer Feet: Muclucks

If you can think of better clothing items please list them. These are the best I've found so far, however, there may be clothing items I just haven't encountered yet. If so, I'd love to hear what they are.

Thanks for reading.

Are you asking in terms of straight warmth? or warmth to weight ratio?

My goal gear is always:

Balaclava/wool hat...rabbit hat is OK too, but it is nice to repair with just cloth too

outer coat: Expedition parka inner coat: urban parka

shirts: fisherman's sweaters x2

outer pants: Combat pants inner pants: Snow pants

Wool underwear x2

climbing socks x2

wool mittens

muclucks

ear muffs x2...or perhaps one moose satchel


best warmth to weight ratio gear I've found. Fisherman's sweaters are only .5° less warm than a cowichan, but weighs .5kg less.

combat pants have good warmth and defense for their weight

wool mittens are a full 1° of warmth for .1kg...If I think I might tangle with a wolf I will switch them out for gauntlets.

inner layers only apply warmth bonus...of which there is nothing better than an urban parka as far as coats go.

In terms of pure warmth insulated boots beat out mukluks.

I've got hundreds of hours in and don't think I've ever even seen the Expedition Parka.

Doesn't spawn on interloper...though I pretty much always get one out of the pleasant valley or mystery lake maps on my voyager games.

What are the warmest possible clothes I can find in Interloper only?

I'm thinking:

Wool socks
Normal long underwear (I'm not sure I've seen wool underwear in Interloper)
Rabbit hat
Deer pants
Wolf/Bear coat
Rabbit gloves
Deer boots
Red plaid shirt
Brown or gray sweater
one of the normal medium weight parkas

Most Lopers I know, and myself on the rare occasions I play Loper, jump for joy if they find a Mackinaw jacket...

Really have to figure ratios into the decision and keep in mind that inner layers, including sweaters under jackets/coats, lose their windproof. I'd wear Thin Wools as opposed to any sweater, including Fisherman's, because of their .25kg weight. On Loper 2xThin Wool for the win.

And imminent doom.

A moose satchel is a must to protect your delicate earwraps.

Mukluks, yes. But you could consider crafting deer boots in any mode so that you have repair options.

It has been said that craftable clothes on non-Loper is unnecessary (except lol the bearcoat or wolfcoat for the small scare chance)

BUT

One thing about all these items is their Protection and decay durability. You can go weeks forgetting to look at their condition and it won't matter. After two weeks you'll be turning your sox and thermals into napkins...


Some more Loper notes...once I've settled in to crafted clothes, a ski jacket, etc at some point I ditch all clothing that is .25kg/.5C ratio at 100% condition. Hoodies, wool sox, sweatshirt/plaid shirt all that crap has to go.

Conversely, I usually wear one pair of sports sox, or two, because it's basically like carrying 1 or 2 emergency Cloth around anyway. And I don't mind repairing them because I try to get to L3 Mending sooner rather than later.

I've never died from running out of: matches, arrows, cloth, scrap metal, meds so I don't concern myself with using "non-renewable" resources.

Fixed, but yes, Mackinaws yay...but also imminent doom.
