It was looser than I thought it would be, but I love the product so I'll make it work.
I am very pleased, it fits a little snug. I love the color.
When our skin is in contact with colder air, the air very near the skin and the skin itself reach an equilibrium that’s warmer than the air and cooler than the skin.
But our bodies lose heat through evaporation, convection, conduction, and even radiation, so when the wind blows on our skin it pulls with it the warmer air near the skin and even pulls some of the heat out of the skin itself, making us feel colder.
When your warm skin touches a cooler object or garment, heat is transferred from your body.
So it’s important to have materials with low conductivity against the skin, like wool.
Your body loses heat to the air. Air blows away from the skin, new air replaces it, grabs some heat and blows away again.
So it’s important to have materials with low conductivity against the skin, like wool.
Just like heat from a woodstove, warmth radiates from the body. We lose around 65% of body heat through radiation in air temperatures lower than 68°F/20°C.
