Default Under garment/clothing

What do you wear under? Aside from underwear

I was thinking of getting that Nike FIT or the Under Armour Cold Gear.

How effective are they when you sweat? Does anyone wear it here?

ive tried the underarmor cold gear when snowboarding and didnt like it. it just felt uncomfortable being skin tight.
i usually wear some patagonia long underwear that works great.

I use the Under Armour base layer under my snowboard pants and a UA Cold gear compression shirt. Never been cold yet, including -17 days, with a wind chill of -40.

Under Armour Cold Gear, or some comparable product, can not be beat. It keeps you warm, lets you sweat w/o getting all wet, and ads zero extra bulk. On super cold days, I wear UA Cold Gear, fleece, and outter shell (pants and jacket). As someone else said, I have not been cold once while riding, and that has included windchills well below -20. On not as cold days, I just wear the Cold Gear and outter shells.

Also, if you wear a face mask, the UA Cold Gear hood is really amazing. It's not as bulky as the Serius masks, and is way easier to stuff in your pocket if you want to take it off. But, on super-super cold days it can be a little thin. When i've hit temps like that, I wear a UA hood under a Serius mask, and it feels like I am chillin in Aruba.

ditto. Patagonia's base layers are the best.

just stick with old fashion light wool underwear. think my parents purchase them years ago in preparation to immigration to canada (thought we were going to freeze ourselves to death then with all the snow). keeps me nice and toasty warm and wicks away moisture very very nicely.
