The Bundler (Clothes Onion) leaves no patch of skin exposed but turns into a human furnace as soon as they encounter indoor heating.

The Snowman accessorizes with some combination of a heavy coat, hat, gloves and scarf and is prone to cheek and nose reddening.

The Lumberjack relies on a hardy constitution, a warm jacket/flannel, pants, and perhaps covering for the head and hands.



The Minimalist finds a long-sleeve shirt and pants enough.

 

 

 

The Crazy (or Runner) is hopefully exercising vigorously in those shorts and T-shirt.
