Even though I find few opportunities to use a VB due to lack of sufficiently
low temperatures, I would recommend you consider STevensons Fuzzy Stuff
material. It has a nice nap on the side that goes against your skin and is
very comfortable. They make their VB shirts, pants and socks from it. I
believe they will also sell the material.

For those who use VB clothes, what material do you use? What temperature
range do you normally use the clothes. I am looking to extend the range of
my winter hiking by using VB clothes. I was thinking of using uncoated 1.1
oz nylon but thought it might not hold in enough humidity to work well.

Thanks,

Bryan
