That's alot...I use under armour. What I don't do is try those heating warmer things...when they go out you're twice as cold.

Get you some windproof/waterproof outer shell that is breathable, like gortex. Wind will freeze you.

I plan on trying the hand warmers around the small of my back th is year. Somebody mentioned that earlier and I think it just might work for me! 
Thats what I do. I have a belt that holds two of the large body warmers. I place the belt so that the warmers are around the kidney area.

You should get rid of that cotton and denim. I've added a fleece vest to my layering this year...should help keep the core warm.

Ditch the cotton. Fleece top and bottom with fleece pants and pullover with berber bibs and parka holds me in the coldest of temps.

Try putting hand warmers on your wrists where the blood flows next to the skin, it warms your blood. Learned that trick a few years back and it works good for me.

Like they said - get rid of the cotton. Holds moisture and will actually make you colder...cotton kills. Multiple layers is the best way to go. Get several hand warmers - drop one down each arm/sleeve, stick one in each pocket of your pants. Carry extras in your pack. I buy them by the case at Sam's, that way there are aloways plenty to go around.
