Put on your coat! : advice that still makes perfect sense

"Put on your hat!", "Zip up your coat!", "Take your mittens!" How many times did we hear these phrases during our childhood? Our parents insisted heavily, and we rolled our eyes with a sigh. Yet, decades later, these same pieces of advice resonate differently. When you live alone and maintain your independence, dressing properly before going out in extreme cold is no longer just an annoying maternal recommendation. It has become a concrete safety strategy that protects us from frostbite, falls on ice, and discomfort caused by intense cold. And today, winter safety can also be elegant and discreet.

The famous "3-layer system": still relevant in 2025?

Last winter, Dorothy had decided to completely redo her winter wardrobe. Gone were the old shapeless coats and outdated hats. She had invested in technical yet elegant pieces: merino wool thermal underwear that wore like a second skin, a fitted cashmere-colored fleece, an anthracite windbreaker with a modern cut. Her son had smiled when he saw her: "Mom, you look chic!"

The three-layer system works just as well as before: the base layer in wool wicks moisture away from the skin, the middle layer traps heat, and the outer layer blocks the freezing wind. Most importantly, no cotton in the first layer: it retains moisture and dangerously cools the body down.

Can these "bulky" accessories really be stylish?

This year, Dorothy never went out without her complete gear anymore, but everything had changed. Her cashmere hat elegantly covered her ears, her black neck warmer matched perfectly, her leather mittens lined with wool kept her hands warm without looking like children's mittens. Her non-slip boots with removable crampons were as chic as they were functional. She even wore two pairs of merino wool socks without her boots feeling too tight.

The extremities of the body lose heat first: hands, feet, ears, nose. Wearing mittens keeps fingers together to conserve warmth. Additionally, non-slip boots with crampons drastically reduce the risk of falling on ice, the main cause of hospitalization for seniors in winter. Following fashion can be done safely.

The final touch to her wardrobe: her SmartSAFE watch

For next year, Dorothy would continue to perfect her winter style. What pleased her most about her new routine was this small device she slipped onto her wrist every morning. Discreet, lightweight, it wore perfectly under all her layers of clothing. The SmartSAFE PLUS™ watch was waterproof, worked even with her thick mittens, and no one noticed it under her sleeve. It had become her essential winter accessory, just like her neck warmer or non-slip boots.

SecurMEDIC™ understands that modern safety must be as discreet as it is effective. The SmartSAFE PLUS™ integrates perfectly into your winter style: compact and lightweight under your sleeves, IPX7 waterproof to face the snow, SOS button accessible even with thick mittens, automatic fall detection on ice, and precise GPS location. Because our parents were right about the three layers and the hat. SecurMEDIC simply adds that invisible touch of protection that perfectly completes your winter wardrobe: peace of mind, with elegance.
