While the picturesque landscapes and the possibility of canceled classes allow for some favorable winter-weather associations, frigid temperatures and slippery terrain set the stage for a miserable few months.
The following cold-weather items will afford you warmth and traction on days when temperatures dip below zero and ice is known not as a beverage additive, but rather as what you slipped on earlier this morning. When you feel ridiculous sporting these items, keep in mind that you can actually feel your fingers, while your friends might at this moment be suffering from frostbite/hypothermia. Enjoy!
