Buy as many sets of long johns you can find while they are on sale down here. You are going to need them. Like when someone asks why certain laws exist in Virginia and the answer is always explained as it's a Commonwealth. The mantra for New Hampshire to explain it is Live Free or Die. I worked for a company out of Manchester and had to spend a couple of weeks up there training during the pandemic. It was interesting to say the least.

I'm a bit confused by that myself, but NH winter and long underwear do go hand in hand.

I guess I'll just literally freeze my balls off because I'm not a fan of wearing two pairs of pants at a time.

if you get thin underwear by smartwool, or the other technical stuff it's surprisingly ok. Not ideal, I fled New England for a reason, but ok

I got some silk long underwear from LL Bean many years ago. Very lightweight but do an excellent job of keeping you warm.
