What do you consider cold?
I put on the insulated covies and carry extra gloves when working outside past -25. Past -35 I only leave the house to feed the cows and hope to hell I'm not chopping out a waterbowl because that's hard on the fingers. I've had to deal with that at -43 and a 20 kph wind. I didn't enjoy that.
