Coming from a colder climate, it amazes me how much emphasis there is here for 'looking the part' instead of being comfortable.

I think the difference is death. Ok not really. But in anything colder than this you’ve simply gotta treat it more seriously.

Hahaha...yeah exposure is definitely more a thing in Canada. I don't get why someone would choose to be uncomfortable, even for a few minutes. The cap example is hilarious. If you're worried about ruining your hair, you're not going to wear a hat regardless. Throw a beanie on and keep the ears warm dang it!!

one dude had an answer to that: Over ear headphones. Honestly a pretty elegant solution. They were both really strange. one guy had a cool hoodie and a vest and that was it, which didnt seem enough. Another was cap and jumper as if he didnt feel the cold but with a scarf on as well. Its like bro are you cold or not?
