FYI guys: the clothing department of National Wholesale Liquidators (Broadway near Houston, big yellow sign) sells 100% silk long underwear for $20 per piece. I get this stuff from a factory store in wisconsin, but these prices are almost as good. It's incredibly useful for winter riding. I have been able to work all day in 20 degree weather with just silk, t-shirt and wool overshirt. Highly recommended.

sorry about that, meatwad. (i mean sirruspackage). i wondered if i was a little unclear. should have specifified that it's $20 per piece, ie top or bottom. in wisconsin, i pay under $10. but that's wisconsin.

If you can wait a few days for shipping you can get some good winter stuff on Sierra Trading Post's site (and scout around for coupon codes, too). I think they had silk underlayers ranging from $11-$15.
