I never thought that I would wear a pear of "long underwear". It got to be 40 below here and I needed an extra layer to keep me warm. I started shopping around when I saw the cuddle duds I thought I would give them a try sinxce they did not look like the regular long underwear. The cuddle duds are not scratchy, supper think that make you look heavy, and they are nice and soft. I love them I wear the cuddle duds all the time now even for pjs. They keep me warm even when it is very cold outside. I cant even tell i am wearing them because they are so sleek and very comfortable! I reccomend them...
