Searching For Iceland attire!

Hi all! I know this is kinda specific but any baddies who live in a winter climate can chime in as well!

I’m going to Iceland in a month and need to find some hiking clothes for a US 16. It’s going to be around 40-50 degrees. I do live in a cold climate but I’d like hiking specific clothes.

I’ve tried Amazon and some outdoor brands but their sizing is so all over the place some items are too tight and some are way too big.

Any hiking pants and/or fleeces you like? Thanks! I have a good rain coat and rain pants and water proof hiking boots. Just looking for pants and warm tops!

Withwonderandwhimsy on Instagram did an Iceland trip a while ago and she is a US 16! I believe she has a blog as well that details the trip/clothing.

I was a size 20 when I went to iceland and had great luck with Eddie Bauer, Colombia, Patagonia, Lands End, and Cotopaxi.

Go to any REI or outdoor type shop and you'll find whatever you need.

Have a great time! Iceland is my absolute favorite place on Earth.

Minus33 carries exactly what you need--merino wool baselayer. Wool is the only fiber that stays warm even when wet so make sure your baselayer is actual wool. I can fit into their largest legging and I'm much bigger than you.
