vest vs. jacket

In your set-up you say nothing about wind which could greatly change the answer. Related, there isn’t a windshirt layered over the combination?

With a windshirt I would expect the vest would be warmer. This seems like something that could be experimentally determined with one of the instrumented dummys they use for testing sleeping bags.

Channing,

edit your post and try replacing your “square brackets” with “angle brackets” (as Software people would call them, aka “less than” AND “greater than” signs for you Mathemeticians out there). this replacement will give you the HTML bold effect that i believe you were trying to acheive.

yes, good point, mark. please assume there’s no wind.

i was also wondering if this could be experimentally determined. for example, if the dummy was colder in one part and hotter in another part but average overall, how would that compare with another dummy that is even throughout but slightly below average? with me, when my neck feels cold, i feel cold, even though i might be sweating (gross, i know).
