Step 1:

Boots

Wear good quality, strong boots to deal with rough terrain. Accompany with good quality woollen socks that do not chafe.

---

Step 2:

Trousers

Trousers should be comfortable, and waterproof if necessary. At the very least they should be quick drying.

---

Step 3:

Jacket

Your jacket should waterproof, and preferably made of natural fabrics. This will be safer around fires

---

Step 4:

Layers

Wear at least a base layer, mid layer, and outer layer. A couple of cotton shirts, and a canvas one on top should be enough.

Step 5:

Other items

Wear a scarf around your neck, and always take a hat, as you lose about 90% of your body heat through the head.
