> Structured buying guides for cold-weather running apparel. Every product lists its price, specs, temperature range, downsides and cited sources, with Markdown and JSON versions for AI assistants.

Updated 2026-10-26. Specs and list prices come from brand product pages (date checked on each product). Verdicts summarize cited published reviews. Products are not yet tested by AgenticRecs. Every page has a Markdown twin at the same address plus index.md. In products.json, each buying link has an affiliate flag; paid links are also marked (paid link) on pages.
