What sort of gear do you wear for walking ?

I have decent walking trainers for summer use

But now its autumn and winter coming I guess I should get myself some waterproof trousers ......is there such a thing , some base layers and a jacket .

I am not one for hiking up pen y fan in the pissing wind and rain
I'm not a walking apparel nerd so I'm not the best person to ask. You do need waterproof boots for the wet weather though. Boots not only give your ankle more support than hardy shoes but you are likely to trudge through environments where the water would enter your shoes at ankle level.
