Hello everyone,
Today I received my first GORE-TEX Pants, it is the Ridge Reaper Pro Shell. they are very well made but so thin 🤔,
I am wondering about the best way to use them. What is the advised layering underneath it to stay warm and dry in the very cold weather?

Thank you

Where do you plan to use them? For out west any rain pant can be used over your regular pants to block wind, rain and retain some heat. If it’s going to be unsettled to bad weather then I might skip my regular pants and just wear a base layer or a fleece lounge pant underneath. A pair of down filled pants underneath will give you the most warmth.

Thanks for replying,
for now, I am planning on using them in Michigan winter for whitetail,
I am not sure if they are suitable for first or second firearm Elk season in Colorado.
