Also, I know as a 40ish old man I probably should have a more professional jacket or whatever, but don't care.

With your job, you can easily pull that off.  Don't sweat it at all.

Replace hoodie with a 1/4 zip pullover and I'm on board Daris.  Add a beanie and light pair of gloves when colder.  No need for a big coat unless super cold and outside for quite awhile.

i'll actually include some of these into my repertoire as well and should have included them. just ordered a couple the other day as a matter of fact.

I think it's silly when I see young kids, usually middle school boys, still wearing basketball shorts in the winter.

yeah that's dumb. my nephews do that and I mock them without ceasing at holiday gatherings
One of Fedor Jr.'s friends was leaving his house wearing basketball shorts and his parents said that it was cold outside and he should wear something more appropriate.  He went in his room and came back out wearing basketball shorts again.  His mom asked him why he did not change.  He said "Mom, I did! I put on two pairs of shorts!!"

I think I've decided on pretty much fulltime hoodie and light jackets with t-shirts under them and basically no other types of winter type shirts. the other options are just stupid/make no sense. thoughts?

i get mad at all weather that doesn't demand tshirt and hoodie as the optimal clothing choice.

i can see why people with lots of fragile hair would be against hats.  the freedom to hat up at will is a great advantage of being bald.

True, it is a perk of what I do.

I walk a few blocks to and from my bus stop every and things can get pretty cold.  I wear this coat:


And a hat, scarf, gloves and ll bean boots i got about 6 or 7 years ago (which have held up remarkably well, save for the shoelaces).  I'll throw on another zip up hoodie underneath my coat if i think it's gonna be super cold.  I really hate being cold.  I also hate wearing the hat because it wrecks my pristine head of hair, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

hate the cold but love coats/winter clothing.  guess it just feels great kicking winter's ass no matter the weather
i have a coat for just about every degree of temperature and a plethora of winter caps in varying styles
boots?  several different pair.  actually have the same pair in brown and black.  2-3 scarfs, can't even count them all

of course, my walkability index is off the charts
people who live in barns and farms (is that the same thing?) just drive their 3/4 ton pick up whenever they need to head into the co-op so they don't need cold winter wear

whenever i see someone wearing a hoodie in the wintertime i feel sorry b/c poor

i wear this guy to my car and to work about every day:



light jackets are the best. i can deal with being cold for 30 seconds twice a day. what i cant deal with is a huge jacket and gloves and crap i have to put on and take off in the car cuz im super sweaty.

if i know my environment will be cold enough to handle it, i use a pullover, because of the luxurious full kangaroo pocket.  if i think i may be shuttling between cool and warm environments, i sacrifice on pockets in favor of the adaptability of the zip up.
