A New Paradigm for Understanding Garment Warmth

[Richard Nisley]

Johnathan,

This is a thread I started in 2009. I revised this information for 2018 in a new thread enititled  A REVISED PARADIGM FOR ESTIMATING GARMENT COMFORT LIMITS. It covers every garment type, including pants.

I’d like to bump this thread back up as I just re-read it and it’s very insightful into the basics of insulation physics. If uts new to you, its worth a read imo.

In addition to richard’s insight, I also enjoy Stephen seeber’s work on this topic recently.

My takeaway is We’re really spoiled with UL insulation now days. So many more choices compared to just 10 or 20 years ago
