That depends on what you're doing outside and what exactly "extreme weather" is supposed to be. An answer to your question is useless without more information:
The most essential outfit for extreme weather is one that protects you from that extreme weather without hindering your planned activities too much.

You want us to tell you what the best gear for every conceivable situation at the same time is, without spending too much money, while having high quality.
And then you're gonna use it for a casual hike in the woods once a year in winter and otherwise wear it in the city when you go commuting and grocery shopping.

Protip: that doesn't exist and you're not gonna need it.

So really, get:

Or whatever other brands' high end hardshell makes you feel cool.

It isn't simple, because "extreme weather" could mean extremely cold, rainy, windy, hot, etc etc.

It was -45F while I was working in northern AK a week or so ago, with 30 MPH wind. Going out to check gauges is a pretty low pulse activity and I wore merino base layers, down insulation top and bottom, and a windproof hardshell made by North Face.

Fuckin heavy wool socks and Baffin boots. A windproof face mask, a wool skull cap, ear muffs, and wool lined leather mittens.

Shit is cold here.

But if I were working my summer job on a fishing boat and the weather was extreme I'd wear completely different shit because it would be warm and I'd be getting hit with salt water constantly.

Not OP, but what would /out recommend to a nomadic travel in Brazil Northeast with almost no money for 3 months? It will involve hitchhiker in scorching sun, camping but also social activities. The climate is tropical wet in the littoral and semi-arid in the interior. It will be in the beginning of the dry season.

This is my current list.

1 Religious t-shirt (cotton)
1 Dress Shirt Long Sleeved (Tencel)

>Thank you >>938130 your post was helpful and gives me a starting point on what I need to research for a colder climate outfit. Please give me examples of clothing you'd wear for extreme heat and/or rainy weather. I appreciate any helpful advice. Thanks /out/.

> extreme weather
What does that even mean? Extreme hot? Extreme cold? Extreme sun? Extreme rain? Extreme snow?

I meant extreme cold, hot, or rainy desu.

Extreme weather includes unusual, severe or unseasonal weather; weather at the extremes of the historical distribution—the range that has been seen in the past. Often, extreme events are based on a location’s recorded weather history and defined as lying in the most unusual ten percent.

>>938046

Layer 1: Moisture wicking both top and bottom
Layer 2:Cotton long underwear top and bottom
Layer 3: Sweatshirt hooded or not and pants
Layer 4: Another sweatshirt hooded
Layer 5: Possibly a lighter jacket maybe with hood

This is winter based layering from the upper midwest area of US(-10F-90F usually not to those extremes but can get around there).

You can take off layers depending on Spring or Fall

>>938253
Forgot to mention wax Layer 4 on the hood, shoulders, cape area, and upper parts of the arms. Maybe ass and lower back area if you plan on sitting and using it as a pad.

>>938254
A winter hat over a baseball cap, gloves, and a neck gator also add well in "extreme" cold

Then you're right, your question is only ostensibly simple and doesn't have an answer.

If the question of what clothes should be worn in the heat and rain is simple answer it instead of shitposting.

What do you do for work?

>>938360
I'm not the one shitposting. If it's bioth extreme heat and extreme rain, I think no clothes (or the local legal minimum) would probably be best, but that will kill you in most other extreme climates. You have to be specific.

silk>nylon for heat

Ignore memer's, there is no better base layer than silk, if it's hot cover it with cotton if it's cold cover it with wool.
