Here’s the SKHOOP

Even if you do not have Sarah Palin‘s wardrobe budget, the SKHOOP is within reach to keep you from cold-butt syndrome, especially if you are taking a peek at Russia from Alaska in the bitter cold.

SKHOOP is an insulated skirt, stuffed with either synthetic fill or down, that zips on and off. It comes in several different sporty-looking styles. The cheapest is about US$100.

Best of all, you won’t have to worry about wardrobe malfunction.
