Men's Cold Weather Problem Solved by Lightweight Clothes
If there has been one cold-weather problem that clothes designers have aimed to conquer in recent years, it's been how to keep men both warm and mobile at the same time.
To realize the extent of the challenge, think back a few decades to what the male spectator wore to a football game on a chilly day. He not only bundled himself up like an overstuffed mattress to combat the weather, but the layers of woolens he had on were so heavy they stooped the straightest shoulders and bent the broadest back.
Modern technical developments in textiles, finishes, processing and construction have now come along to make it possible for men to walk instead of waddle despite the coldest weather.
Practical experiments conducted during the Byrd polar expeditions and by the Army Quartermaster corps during and since World War II uncovered the surprising fact that certain light-weight fabrics keep out the cold better than heavy, bulky clothes. And scientists have also found certain chemical processes which, when applied to the materials, made them even more resistant to wind and cold.
All of men's articles of apparel are following the lighter-weight trend. Winter suits, for example, weigh less than ever, and many are no heavier than the ones once worn in summer. The trend to less bulk is particularly true in formal clothes, which are now sold for winter wear in so-called "tropical" weights. And hats, shirts, socks, and shoes also are much lighter than they used to be.
These developments have added new styling and comfort to winter apparel. Gone forever is the era when the male hibernated from fall to spring in bulky, shapeless clothes. Now he can look as trim, feel as casual and be as comfortable in the winter as during the rest of the year. And, most important, he's just as warm as he would be in long flannel drawers and a stocking cap.
Anne MacLaughlin. business junior, has been initiated into Pi Beta Phi sorority.
Nine men have been initiated into Theta Tau, national professional engineering fraternity. They are: John Wilkening, Charles Crowell, Clarence Walker, Dick Byrnes, and Bob Sutton, all seniors, and Dick Boggs, Dick Backman, Marshall Brown, and Bill Mains, all sophomores.
