it the same thickness as a pair of wool slacks so probably not much
insulation.   I have not heard of any insulation material that would work
because of the contour of the inside of the top.  If you find something - post
it to the list as I am sure there are others as interested as I am.

through the material.   Another option would be high-density foam 1/4-1/2"
thick.  That is where the inside contour may be problematic.

that sufficient insulation or is there a better way to insulate underneath to
keep you a little warmer in the winter?
