How to Choose the Right Outdoor Apparel for Canadian Weather
If you’ve spent any time outdoors in Canada, you know the weather can be wild and unpredictable. The key to staying comfortable? Layering up with the right apparel for any condition.
Did you know?
Canada’s temperature can swing from +40°C in the summer to –40°C in the winter—sometimes in the same province!
1. Start with a Good Base Layer
The base layer is all about keeping sweat off your skin. Avoid cotton and go for synthetic or merino wool. Our Winter New Men’s Ski Thermal Underwear Set is perfect for keeping you dry and comfortable.
2. Add Insulation
A good mid-layer traps heat without making you feel bulky. Fleece, down, or synthetic insulation all work well. For extra cold days, try our Winter Heated Thermal Underwear—it’s like having a personal heater!
3. Top It Off with a Shell
A waterproof, windproof shell is a must for blocking out the elements. Our Outdoor Hunting Camouflage Set is built for all-weather protection, whether you’re hunting or just shoveling the driveway.
4. Don’t Forget Accessories
A warm toque, gloves, and wool socks make a big difference. Even in summer, mornings and evenings can be chilly.
Extra info:
- Quick-dry fabrics are great if you’re active or expect rain.
- In summer, go for light colours and UPF-rated clothing to avoid sunburn.
- Always pack an extra layer—better to have it and not need it!
Fun fact:
Canadian geese survive the cold thanks to their down feathers. For the rest of us, merino wool is a lifesaver!
