Forget all the "layers" rubbish, that advice was valid in 1921 when people wore loin cloths.

Now there is such a thing as "down parka" and "ski pants". That is all you need down to -30°C.

I recommend Canada Goose down parka.

I laugh when I see people in hundreds of layers taking hours to get ready then they are too hot when they are indoors.looooool.

Eh? the whole point of layering is that you can take layers off if you are too hot.....

Dont do the layers , a weather shield approach works best.
Ive got a minus degree coat and if my t-shirt jumper combo is to thick i become like a furnace.
