several layers of clothes plus a coat

You're wearing the wrong clothes.

I walk/hike for hours in -2--20C with 1-2 layers plus a coat. You have your skin layer; some kind of generuc athletic wear to wick away sweat, your insulating layer, a thick sweater, and your coat, but usually I just have the skin layer and unzipped coat.

Same with the legs, long underwear for the skin, sweatpants for insulation, and snowpants, but usually just jeans and underwear.

I know how to dress, dumbass. I don't like the cold, so I wear three layers plus a coat on my upper and two layers on my bottoms along with wool socks and winter boots. ... Several layers. Plus hat, gloves and a face covering if it's also windy.

If you're dressing correctly, IDK how you can be cold. Get a thicker insulating layer?

I don't WANT to put on all the shit to just go outside without being cold. Just like I don't want to shed off so much once I get back inside just to not be hot.

At least you have the option to take it off to no longer be hot, unlike in summer.
