In reply to Kahti:
I'd like to put in a word for Polartec fabrics. For your application, the Powerstretch Pro one might be a good choice - because it has a pretty good combination of thermal retention and reasonable windproofing (I use it for a balaclava, for example).
Their other fabrics make good soft shell layers. I wear a Montane Sabretooth soft shell made of the Power Shield one, for example. You might find it a bit sweaty for a midlayer though.
