Very expensive mistake and awful winter to endure

I was recently assigned to work in Far East Russia that typically have Siberian weather conditions. Since I did not have a lot of time to prep I ordered thermal gear on line from Cape Union Mart. I bought 5 sets of thermal Kway vests and Kway underpants. I also bought what was touted as the best thermal gloves. All turned out *******. The thermal underwear is useless at any temperature. At sub zero it provides no insulation properties and at plus temperatures it turns your body into a sauna. The gloves could not even provide comfort at above zero temperatures. Clearly Cape Union Mart have not done any research in the products they stock
