Would you recommend this as a base layer for an autumn/winter trip through Europe? I come from hot weather and I'm not used to low temperatures.

Yes, they fit well under any clothing and will keep you warm. I wear them on my mail route and am in Minnesota. You shouldn't get too warm yet remain comfortable.

Highly recommend. Soft and comfortable. Didn't sweat during 4 to 5 hours of being active outside in 30 degrees Fahrenheit.

Absolutely, these are very light but still keep your legs very warm in cold temperatures...I wore them as a base layer in 20-60 degree weather.

i use them in 30 to 50 degree weather and medium activity and they are the ticket

This sleeping bag is one of the thickness I've ever had for it's weather/temp ratings. Yes, it's much thicker than it looks but I would always suggest a base surface mat or pad to place the sleeping bag on if at all possible. If you're trying to travel light and therefore don't want the extra weight of a mat to carry, then I would recommend a different sleeping bag entirely. However, that type of sleeping bag is in the high-end category and you'd better be ready for the prices you'll be dealing with. ;)

I slept in it in freezing temps in an unexpected early August snow shower during a northern Maine canoe trip - not sure exactly how low it got that night but there was ice and snow all over the ground and in our canoe in the morning. I am a very warm sleeper and made it through all right that night, but it is certainly not built for those conditions. You will survive in it, but you will not be happy in the morning. I would typically opt for a 0 degree down bag if I'm expecting 30 degree temps...gives you a margin of safety and comfort...plus a 700+ fill factor 0 degree down bag weighs about the same as this bag. This bag is well worth the money for a summer bag though.

Mine kept me nice and warm during Michigan's harsh winter. I LOVE how lightweight yet warm it is! I was able to enjoy the parks all winter long without feeling bulky! It's a bit narrow through the hips so keep that in mind when ordering. Enjoy!

This jacket is a light shell and not designed for warmth. Layer if it's cold.

Hi there. Europe sounds like a lot of fun! Here's the deal with this product as I see it. Good space, good comfort. Lots of pockets for your essentials. The problem as I see it is that there is no bottom zipper to get to the goodies you may store there. There is a mid range pocket that I suppose was made to take the place of the bottom entrance, but in my opinion is not as good. Again, good space and weight distribution for 2 week excursions, maybe a little more if clean clothes are not your priority. Hope this helps. Hit me up if you have any other questions.

The jacket is pretty thin so it doesn't provide very much additional warmth. It is water tight and pretty wind resistant so it does cut down a bit on wind chill, but the jacket is no substitute for layering or a heavier coat if you plan on using it in cold temperatures.

Its definitely too warm in my opinion for the summer especially without a/c. Its a very thick material. Every baby is different however. You can always give it a try and if not return. Just know as other reviewers have pointed out it's essentially a snowsuit.

No - it's too light. Especially if your coming to Colorado, it's COLD here and our snow is big. Even with synthetic base and fleece, just not warm or waterproof enough

I use them for pre- and post-season driving in my convertible. I've had no trouble with cold seeping in - including highway speeds in low 40° temps. Unsure if using them in true frigid weather would keep you warm enough - but then again, layering is always best.

I live in Michigan and I dress in layers (flannel shirt over hoodie over sweatshirt over long sleeve t-shirt) when it is cold outside. When the temp is in the 30 degree range it MIGHT be somewhat snug.

I probably wouldn't recommend. I used in the summer and was sweating because it is thick material, but I imagine it wouldn't do well in less than 10 degrees

Large. You need the room for layers, assuming you are located north of Florida and those areas that don't receive colder weather. I'm of slim build and early season it was a little lose, but manageable.

Depends on what you're wearing ;)It would be too warm for summer, but I'd say it's adequate for spring/fall colder nights.

I bought them for hiking and paragliding in summer. Feel a bit light for colder temperatures, but very tough fabric. Maybe with respective long underwear and depending on circumstances (wind chill, still air, humidity etc.) you could use them in freezing conditions. My 2 cents :-)

I live in Fl, so in the dead of summer, it is cooler than anything else I have used. However, anytime you cover bother your nose and mouth, your face is going to be warm. I don't know where you live, but I really can't say too much about the cold weather. If you live up north where it does actually get cold, then my advice would be to get this one for the summer and something a little heavier for the winter. If you live in the south though, this should be fine. It works well for me year round.

At 20F i would wear a underskirt, t-shirt and a thin fleece under the jacket. But then you are well prepared for a longer stay. If its stormy you need a gore-tex jacket over it.
