Hi! What are your comfort clothes? (talking about clothing types)
For some reason I find vests, and specifically down vests very comfortable. I know that some of you have problems with polyester though, so I'd love to hear about your comfy clothes! (I kinda wanna test out some new stuff)

100% cotton in layers.
I like loose clothes - baggy chinos or cargo pants (or shorts made out of old pants that have started ripping out at the knees) and t-shirts, henleys, chamois work shirts, zippered (never pullover) hooded sweatshirts and down vests. I add layers in the fall (I generally max out at six in the dead of winter) and subtract them in the spring.
That's my go-to as well, loose fit and lots of cotton layers. For the colder seasons, if there's at least 2 layers of tshirt and longsleeve I also throw some woolen pieces and a down vest on top, it's surprisingly warm, breathy and comfy to wear even if it's minus degrees out.
I like wool, but I don't currently own any. It's of very limited use, since it itches abominably.
It strikes me though - I should keep my eyes open for a good, heavy wool cardigan. In the winter, I wear some number of t-shirts/henleys plus a chamois shirt and a hooded sweatshirt, then some top layer - either a down vest or coat. A big, heavy wool cardigan would work well for that top layer too.
pure Cashmere or Cashmere-Wool blend is usually not as itchy (I am similarily sensitive) and work great as a in-between layer. No turtlenecks! I own a Cashmere Hoodie for instance, which is great. Unfortunately a bit more pricey but keeps you a long way if you take care of it. I lost the perfect heavy woolen cardigan to a washing accident, so need to find a new one too :/
Do you feel more comfortable with less or more layers? I personally always keep my thinner jacket on me cuz i don't like seeing my hairy arms...
Shaveing them is an option. I (30M) just did for my legs. Fuck societal norms, do what you feel is right for you.
Trust me, I'm on it!
More, definitely.
Even in the summer, as soon as I can get away with it, I go to a second layer. I prefer two light layers over one heavy one.
I don't like exposing my arms/wrists for whatever reason when I'm in public. At home I'm usually okay with it but sometimes prefer to wear another layer just for that reason. That's something I look out for as well, extra long sleeves
