They wore more clothing including some type of trousers in their northern provinces. Germania, Gaul, Pannonia, Dacia, Britain, etc...got cold as fuck in the falls and winters.

Why? If you shoot would it not blow out the flame?

It's joking about people putting tacticool shit like scopes and torches on everything.

Either Iranic or Celtic peoples probably caused this, both were noted to be the earliest groups to adopt the usage of trousers. Scythians and their descendants would often run into Greeks nd Romans.
This is the good shit

It wasn't until I think the third or fourth century that pants were commonly worn by the Legions because it was considered unfashionable and barbaric to wear pants. Usually to keep themselves warm they just wore more layers of clothing underneath their armor and not pants.

Braccae were quickly adopted from the Hos/Trous the Germanics and Gauls wore respectively.
They were not idiots. Gaul and Germania get a fuckton colder than Rome.
