Clothing for an outing with the walking group
Short answer: Two hours of walking in changing weather needs layers and good socks. The base layer decides whether the break on the bench turns cold.
Pace changes, temperature changes
Uphill you get warm, on flat ground you cool down. Layers you can open solve it. See bamboo clothing for women.
Socks for two hours
Two hours of walking is enough for blisters to form. Smooth socks without a hard seam prevent them. See bamboo socks for women.
The break on the bench
Ten minutes of rest in the wind cools you quickly. An extra layer in the bag is worth carrying. See bamboo t-shirts for women.
