Definitely happens. Probably the first half of my winter commuting last year, I was always cold with a good few layers on. By the end, I was fine with T-shirt under a C9 fleece jacket from Target, my aforementioned too thin cargos and gloves and wool socks over very breathable hiking shoes. If winter ever comes this year I'll be interested to see how I take it.
