Hello

We’re taking a winter holiday to Lapland next year to try and see the northern lights

I’m from Australia and winter gear here is hardly suitable for any temperature <0C, and extreme cold weather clothes from specialist store are very expensive.

I am also concerned that claimed warmth of Australian clothes may be overstated as it never gets that cold here.

I’m sure in the colder regions, these are just ‘clothes’

Please recommend any stores or brands for serviceable warm clothing suitable for a bit of time gazing at the sky and making friends with reindeer in the arctic?

Thanks from Oz
