Or just wear your underpants outside for the best feeling. Some say it's super for insulation.
Let yourself be cold for a bit, too. If you immediately try to fight off the cold, you're not letting your body acclimate. There's only so many layers you can throw on, but if you allow your body to adjust, there's less layers required.
I’m fine with my 8 layers during winter, tyvm.

Not all of us can live in the warm weather winter geographies like you do where you only need 8 layers. /s
Only poor and dumb people are cold
What if I'm not wearing pants?
Depending on what you have going on down there, you'll either want to tuck your parts into your socks or your socks into your parts.
Wear a blanket like a robe around the house.
I'm always surprised by how many people would sooner rather run up their heating bill all winter than even contemplate putting on extra layers (or even just thicker/longer clothes).
I had a friend who would wear pyjama shorts the whole winter and always complain about the cold, as though putting on a dressing gown or just normal PJ pants wasn't an option.
Like obviously you should use heating if you need it - don't get risk hypothermia to save a buck - but I've never understood the rational behind people's refusal to actually dress like it's winter.
