    Carhart overalls (knock off brands might or might not be good). A good sweatshirt. Unzip or remove as needed - different parts of the day and different activities demand different levels of outwear. At the end of the day find all the clothes you shed and pack them back home for the next days.

    For chilly days the cheap “jersey” gloves work great: buy a case. You need a new pair every day, but they are thin enough that they are easy to work in and cheap enough that you don’t care about a new pair daily. For cold days the yellow “chore gloves” work great, keep a dozen around so you can switch when they get wet. Most of the time I just let them air dry in my car.

    Only really cold days have breakfast and start later in the day.

    The only think I can’t help you with is when it is -1C and raining. If at all possible stay home.
