Ever wondered why experienced outdoor enthusiasts preach against wearing cotton in winter? This video dives into the critical reasons why this seemingly innocuous fabric can be dangerous, even life-threatening, in cold, wet conditions. Understanding these principles is crucial for anyone venturing into the winter wilderness.

Discover the fundamental flaws of cotton for winter wear:
► Cotton absorbs and retains moisture, whether from sweat or external sources, becoming heavy and cold.
► Unlike synthetic or wool fibers, cotton loses its insulating properties completely when wet, offering no warmth.
► The rapid cooling effect of wet cotton can lead to hypothermia, even in moderately cold temperatures.
► Once wet, cotton takes a very long time to dry, prolonging the risk and discomfort.
► Learn why 'cotton kills' is a vital mantra for winter safety and what alternatives to choose.
