On the advice of Doug and Vito, I’ve purchased a set of pogies
that will go on the Moonlander's handlebars. They’ve suggested these should do wonders to keep the digits warm during the colder commuting months. I’m going to give these a go and not purchase the really expensive mittens just yet.
I’ve also ordered a set of Sorrel Intrepid Explorer boots.
The Sorrel website says these are good to minus 100 (-100) degrees. Even if they’re good for half (-50) that, these should go a long way toward keeping the toes warm.
I also have obtained a warmer head covering.
This coupled with a face mask and ski goggles should keep the head / face area warm. I haven’t bought yet, but plan to buy, a different type helmet.
I’ll give all this new crap a go and see if it does what I hope it will. I know we’ll have some really cold weather this winter for a respectable test. I think I’ve got most everything else I need covered. We’ll see. I can always add this and / or that if I need to.
Ride On.

Downhill ski helmets are made to fit goggles perfectly and they (can) have venting so you get a very wide temp range. Highly recommend checking them out.
Those boots have real possibilities.
