So, I learned the hard way on Monday in the 5 hours of shoveling in subzero weather that I need some Base Layer or Long Underwear or SOMETHING for if there's a next time. I am pretty sure my thighs are mildly frostbitten.
I have poked around at Smartwool, Lands End, LL Bean and Ice Breakers...but I have no idea what to get. I ruled out Heattech from Uniqlo because I am RIGHT on the XL XXL line there and their lengths on the shirts with my boobs are pretty much useless, they won't tuck in and my entire midsection is uncovered (their sizing is atrocious is what I am saying).
This is what I have looked at as a serious option thus far:

I know Monnie will have some input for me here, but before the next freeze I want to get something like this in my house.
