What kind of equipment is suitable for outdoor running in winter?

When the human body is in a static environment, the heat loss is relatively small. If there is wind, the flowing air can continuously dissipate the heat from the body. Now more and more people choose to go out to exercise in winter, but sometimes because the climate is too cold, they dare not go out for activities. So, what are the outdoor running equipment in winter? Let's take a look below.

Methods/Steps

>01

Underwear: The first layer of underwear: Climbers rarely wear cotton underwear because, although cotton underwear is highly breathable and comfortable, it is also highly absorbent and not easy to dry, so cold and damp underwear will rub the skin and cause discomfort.

>02

Thermal clothing: Thermal clothing is generally made of woolen long coats and trousers or fleece coats and trousers. Sweaters and pants with a high wool content can provide good warmth and can still keep you warm even when they get wet. The sweaters used for mountaineering are mainly simple and warm, so round-neck pullovers or high-neck pullovers are generally chosen.

>03

Windproof jackets and pants: The general materials of windproof jackets and pants can be windproof, but those with high waterproofness often have poor breathability. Conversely, those with good breathability have poor waterproofness. The well-known GORE-TEX fabric is not only windproof and waterproof but also breathable. The key to its waterproofness and breathability is that the diameter of each of its micropores is only 0.2 microns. The liquid water gathered on the surface of the material will form molecular clusters, which are about 20,000 times the size of the micropore diameter. Therefore, liquid water cannot pass through the micropores and make GORE-TEX waterproof.

Hat: When climbing and marching, the hat usually has a brim, and is also equipped with a folding hat with ear and neck protection.

Mountaineering clothing must adapt to changes in the environment. There are four environmental factors to consider: altitude, temperature, wind speed and humidity. Outdoor running equipment must be prepared in winter. In particularly cold climates, you must not go to particularly cold places to avoid accidents and unnecessary injuries. The climate in winter is unpredictable, so you must pay attention to your own warming measures.
