For example, we love this Heattech Cashmere Blend T-Shirt which is super soft, extra warm and comes in 6 beautiful colours; perfect for layering on cold days! Designed with ultra-fine fibres to provide lightweight, effective warmth, HEATTECH thermals are a great way to keep the whole family warm.

Here’s what Uniqlo have to say:

Gone are the days of piling on multiple layers to stay warm. HEATTECH represents the pinnacle of Japanese cutting-edge fibre technology. Designed with innovative materials, HEATTECH wicks moisture from the body and converts it into heat, creating warmth with every movement.

Our HEATTECH thermal base layers for children are thoughtfully crafted for comfort and functionality. Featuring cotton for a gentle touch and skin-friendly stitching, these layers are made with stretch fibers to ensure unrestricted movement. The collection offers three levels of thermal insulation: Standard HEATTECH, Ultra Warm, and Extra Warm.

Thanks and good luck with the prize draw!

Festive steam train rides to meet Santa! Will definitely be layering up with the essentials - hats, scarves, gloves. For the kids, vests are always on!

I have an outdoor Carol service this week for Riding For The Disabled and we need to dress up warmly! It’ll be thermal tights and layers plus a big coat, hat and scarf.

I use the Heattech products as pyjama tips for me and for my dad in winter time as they make life so much easier.

We’re off to another city for the Christmas markets. Lots of layers and the mulled wine should keep us warm!

We are going to Winter Wonderland on the 22nd !
Love these https://www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/products/E450623-000/00?colorDisplayCode=09&sizeDisplayCode=003

I only wear base leggings if I know if will be below zero all day, otherwise I get too toasty. Saying that, photographing the early crisp cold mornings does result in base and overlayer everywhere humanly possible

Lots of layers including two pairs of socks and thick jumpers when I need to go out.

Lots of Christmas activities but my favourite is foraging for some winter foliage a lots of winter markets

Lots of layers, vest, long sleeve t-shirts and jumpers. I also wear fleece lined leggings. My daughter isn't a fan of hats but we wear those knitted headbands and they help keep ears warm (I hate cold ears in icy weather).

We enjoy the light trail at our local zoo this time of year! My winter outfit normally includes fluffy fleece lined leggings, thick wool coat and chunky scarf.

Son is off on his first ski trip this winter so have stocked up on Heattech layers. We wear them on the farm Nov - March to keep the cold and wind out.

We're going to a light trail,a Christmas market and tobogganing for our festive outings this year.

We are off to an outdoor carol singing event and light trail so need to wrap up warm. Lots of woolens including hat, scarf and gloves.

Never heard of HEATTECH products before but will definitely check them out.

Head to toe Heatech beneath everything. The extra warm leggings under big skirts. Big fan on neck warmers instead of scarves.

Looking forward to some crisp dog walks with the family, and the outdoor skate rink that's coming next week.

We'll layer up and bring flasks of dairy free hot chocolate.

We are off to York for the weekend for the Christmas markets. When we get back we are off to a Christmas tree farm to select a tree followed by Christmas movies / carols and tree decorating. Then we will have a beach trip with the dog on 23rd / Christmas Eve and a weekend in wales in the new year to look forward too. - with the dog so lots of wet and windy walks.

We'll be using thermals / waterproofs and cashmere to stay warm and dry and cosy.

Long walks and watching football means that thermal tops and leggings are going to be essential, along with cosy hats, scarves and gloves.

Christmas markets and winter walks to keep the energy levels under control - we all get a bit stir crazy being indoors a lot over winter. - Getting wrapped up and coming home with rosy cheeks is just the best.

My daughter and I both have raynauds disease so the cold causes us physical pain. These products look like something we should try on our yearly visit to the Christmas markets and ice skating

Thermal socks to keep my toes warm - if my feet are warm then I can cope 😂
we have a show planned next week and plan to visit the Christmas markets too and have a Yorkshire pudding wrap. Our DC are too old to visit Santa sadly but we take the dogs to Santa paws in their Christmas jumpers.

Outdoor carol singing and winter walks wearing as many layers as possible

Lots of festive visits to meet Santa with our one year old. He is always nice and toasty in the pram with his foot muff, so I think it’s fair I get thermal socks to keep my feet warm! Once your feet are cold it’s game over!

Going to see our local football team's Boxing Day match is an Xmas tradition for us.

It's always freezing so we wear lots of layers, hat, gloves and thermal socks - and we warm up with a hot drink and sweets at half time!

Lots of holiday plans with now adult children, getting together for meals, ice skating, magic show, Christmas markets. I feel the cold so definitely wearing thermals and woolly tights, hat, gloves for outdoor events!

I have a festive wreath making workshop with my cousin, a carol concert with a friend, Christmas shopping, hand delivery of as many Xmas cards as possible for my mum to save her some cash on stamps (I call it my annual Santa run!), festive afternoon tea with family this weekend & visits with elderly relatives to deliver cards & parcels & a bit of Xmas cheer & news from the outside world before the big day! So much to cram in & Lots to look forward to🎄🎁🎅🏻❄️☃️

The kids are learning to snowboard this year as they are getting a little past the Santa stage (aged 8 and 10).
I'm a big fan of lots of layers and base layers.

Our winter activities would be walking the dogs on the woods near us - tidying up the allotment ready for spring planting, and christmas markets
