Long john will be extremely uncomfortable. usually i only use long john if temp < 0 degree. If u're only in taipei, winter there is quite ok. If no cold front, i normally survive in long sleeve & jeans only. Coz mostly indoor, so quite ok. if cold front, add additional jacket.

temperature can be from 5 - 20 degree
hm.. is long john very uncomfortable? cos it looks like just a cotton suit tat u wear inside.. does it stick to the skin?

Its suppose to be tight, like leotard.
I prefer to wear more layers that can be taken off cause you may go indoors with heating, than cannot strip..die man..
