How to Dress in Layers

#1 – Base Layer

The goal is moisture control and warmth.

#2 – Mid Layer

This layer gives you insulation and protection.

#3 – Outer Layer

To keep yourself protected this is the weather protection layer. Also, don’t forget your hat, gloves, scarf, and even ear muffs if necessary.

Dressing in layers allows you to be prepared for outside temperature and then have the ability to relax as layers come off while indoors.

Be safe in your travels in Indy, pack winter clothes, dress in layers, and of course cheer on the Crimson Tide to a victory.
