How tight should underwear and socks should be?
I'm testing some new Manmade underwear and Darn Tough socks and I've noticed that initially they do feel slightly tight. I do get used to it very quickly and forget about it soon after but considering I've had underwear and socks that didn't feel like that, I'm wondering if I should size up or not. I've also heard that underwear and socks can shrink after washing which makes me wary of how it will feel in the future.
The socks in particular do give me more resistance width wise than most socks I've worn when putting them on (nothing terrible but there is some resistance) but at the same time the heels of my socks are slightly too long to align perfectly with the heels of my feet. That makes me wary up of sizing up and maybe I should just look for different socks maybe 🤔

How much cold can a barn jacket tolerate?
Looking for fall/winter jackets, I came across the really stylish J Crew's heritage Barn Jacket. While a hoodless jacket was not what I had in mind, it's still very stylish and I'm considering buying it but I'm wondering how much cold it can protect me from? Like is it fine to wear around 0 degree Celsius or even a little below around -10 Celsius or so? And suppose it rains, would if offer a bit of protection for the body at least?
