thermal recs

Any recs for thermals? The 3sixteen flannel I got is like too thick to wear something over it but not warm enough for when it's sub 50 degrees F so looking for a good layer to wear under it. I know of 3sixteen and standard issue but they're out of stock.

Also looking for a crewneck, not a henley

this looks good tho i'm not sure if the color is too close to my flannel color

This is the color of the flannel and I'm wearing olive fatigues. What colors should I do for the thermal?

I feel like these vintage ones i found will have a cool texture than heattech tho?

BenjiOP•11/27/23, 11:25 PM

they're cotton-wool

Shaun•11/27/23, 11:29 PM

You're probably right, heattech is nicer hidden away. Texture doesn't vibe with the flannels

I personally wouldn't want to buy thermals/underwear used, though I suppose it isn't that different from a used regular shirt

be aware that bronson ships from china with 15-21 day lead times

BenjiOP•11/28/23, 12:57 AM

I'm still a bit confused on what I should aim for color wise

seems like this j crew one is a move

BenjiOP•11/28/23, 2:41 AM

Now I'm scared it'll clash with my outfit

Isn't your flannel going to be buttoned up so it doesn't matter?

BenjiOP•11/28/23, 4:49 PM

No? doesn't it look better with layering? though if it's too cold, i'd button it up

BenjiOP•11/28/23, 4:54 PM

i mean layering over the flannel would be nice too but i don't have any coats that fit over it and i'm not sure what coat would make sense.

@Benjiara standard issue has some black and vintage black in small right now

thank you! i returned the j crew one, it was sortve meh (feel a lil wasteful tho it was free returns/free ship for some reason). i think I need XS for standard issue because it says to size down

goofus•12/11/23, 1:48 AM
