Lacing up & Strapping in
Boots have lace holes and hooks. Pull hard on the laces when you lace them through the holes. Before hooking the laces through each set of hooks, tie them (like you tie your sneakers, except stop before you make a bow). After hooking the lace on the top hooks, tie them, then hook them through the bottom-most hooks again, tie them. Then hook them through the top-most hooks again and tie them in a bow.

I opted for the latter: tall ski pants ($29 USD) that looked and felt one size too large and nylon down jacket ($59 USD). I was dry, warm, and happy. Everything that touches snow must be water resistant. The lining and layer underneath don’t matter much as long as they don’t retain sweat.
Juicy Couture Tracksuits COTTON IS BAD. Chenille, fleece, or wool is good. Gore-tex is very good. You really don’t have to spend a fortune, but you must spend enough to be warm, breathable, and water-resistant (read the clothing labels).
Socks – Wear only ONE pair of socks: Ideally, thick long acrylic socks with a very loose weave (turn ‘them inside out to check).
Gloves – Get really warm, waterproof gloves – long ones that extend over the wrists of your jacket. Get gloves you feel comfortable in – not ones that make you feel like you’re wearing the claws of a giant bear suit costume. You want gloves in which you can EASILY
