Seven: Hard Weather

For weather wear, you'll never need more than a light fleece and a dedicated raincoat. I choose both because I like to have a WATERPROOF shell rather than something that is simply water resistant. Also, invest in a good fleece. For the right price, you can find something that will work for a large range of temperatures, rather than just a ten degree range. If you're not so stiff as I am on waterproof things, a good softshell will do the trick. They're usually very good at repelling water and keeping you dry, and they double as a good sweater or fleece.
