Get yourself some merino wool. This season was the first I have used it and was very pleased.
I got all my stuff from WoolX. Its super warm and comfortable. WoolX appears to be a little cheaper than other brands, especially if you buy using their frequent 15% or 20% off offers. Im sure other brands of merino wool are great too but I cant speak for them since all I've used is woolx. Actually I have a First Lite Tundra balaclava that is merino wool and is absolutely worth its weight in gold.
Another item I used for the first time this season is a neck gaiter. Seemed to help me stay warm and they're pretty cheap.
I use an old military style duffle bag with backpack straps to transport my zip up merino wool mid layer, headgear and outer jacket to and from the stand so I don't overheat. All I wear in and out is a heavy merino wool base layer.
Good luck.
