Aye, you make a good point. I have no problem with my legs, as long as I'm moving. It's standing still that will get me! That's when I'd want to be able to insulate the knees a bit.

All my cold weather dressing habits were developed for active pursuits (both south and midwest locales), but things like winter stargazing are a significant challenge for me.
