New York, Oct 22 (IANS) From long underwear to chapstick - men should make sure that they have winter essentials to beat the cold.

Here’s a list of products that will help protect men during chilly days, reports huffingtonpost.com:

- Weatherproof boots: Buy an impermeable pair of shoes that will protect your feet from rainy or snowy days.

- A hat: Pick a fun colour or pattern to look different from others who will mostly wear basic black caps.

- Chapstick: It is required year-round, but don’t skip the lip moisturiser during winter for sure. It’s not a lipstick so, you need not feel self-conscious.

- Long underwear: Men often forget to focus on their undergarments. Long underwear and undershirts, which are non-bulky and have heat-retaining base, are recommended.

- All-purpose ointment: Use it to avoid redness and flaky skin. Be sure to pay attention to chapped skin on your nose, face and fingers.
