OLD FASHIONED PARKA (BASIC WINTER COAT)

Basic winter coat was changed into Simple Parka, not the Old fashioned one. They even look the same for the most part.

SKI GLOVES

Basic Ski gloves which was the original item for hands in the previous updates was turned into "Drivers gloves", not the Ski gloves. Ski gloves are better - and if you lived through conversion of resolute outfitter with your saved game, you would see all the basic ski gloves turn into driver´s gloves.

WOOL SCARF

Current game has a wool scarf and a long wool scarf. Should probably mention this is the "red one", the short version. Since thats what the basic wool scarf from previous versions was.

Interesting challenge. Should be somewhat challenging, considering that the resolute Outfitter significantly nerfed the protection rates of most clothing, for example wolfskin coat got nerfed almost to half values.

I've started to always play this way. For me, I like having the cold present a challenge. If you can layer clothing, you can get a crazy warmth bonus.

Its a valid strat, cold is not that difficult to manage as long as you have SOME clothing on. And it gives you more space to fill with loot and more ability to sprint, too. As long as you spend some time inside or build fires along the way, you can maintain cold pretty easily.
