Try no baselayer tops at all PM, just regular polyester fleece. My favorites are basic fleece like Polartec's 100, 200 and WindPro of varying weights. I tried this on a whim one cold 20 degree winters day, wearing both a 100 1/4 zip and 200 full zip jacket with a LL Bean supplex nylon 1/2 zip Anorak over them while hiking up and down my local hills. All very loose fitting. The Anorak is a way oversized vintage XXL tall , while I usually wear large in most clothing. It has drawcords around the hood and waist and bottom hem, and it's a good 32 inches long to cover the rear and hips so opening it up for a chimney cooling effect is great. Since there is no base fabric to absorb any perspiration, it evaporates very quickly off the skin. Any moisture that contacts the fleece dries very quickly from body heat and there is no "rebound" effect of a chill as I never get too wet and hot. Staying "just right" feeling is very easy. It's all pretty cool !
