Additional question - It seems the best way to keep warm in cold weather is to layer natural layers with treated/waxed nylon or cordura on top. Does anyone have experience with this or know of an accessible guide online? Every post I find is linked to a shop or otherwise trying to sell something.
Also any info on the waxes to use (Parrafin, soy oil, synthetic beeswax, candelilla are all options I have come across) is appreciated!
I use an "oilskin" (actually cotton) as a raincoat and wax it with a mixture of carnauba wax and jojoba oil. Castor would probably also work, you just need to add something to soften it that's heavy enough not to get displaced by water.
