Bacon Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Very, very, lightly. In fact, I think temps that high might be deadly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris- Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 But in all seriousness, just focus on packing things you can layer; far better to layer for warmth than rely on one jacket/sweater. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost_MH Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Even for temps in the 40s, I'm usually just going with a long sleeve shirt. It was 44 when I sent my 4yo to school this morning and I sent her off in a light hoodie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on where you are, especially in France, I'd be more wary of chilly wind. You can get hit with the same weather we're getting here in Massachusetts. We've been getting days where too much time in the sun will leave you feeling baked, but the air temperature is still down in the 40s and 50s. No wind and and a ton of sun will leave you sweating if you're dressed too heavily while a hoodie would be really nice to protect your face when the wind turns against you.

Brian Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Unless you are going be outside a lot, you don’t need that much warm clothing. Warm hat, gloves and a good jacket is all I would recommend. Europeans keep the indoors fucking toasty. Not sure if the Christmas markets are open yet but if they are, definitely hit them up and drink some mulled wine.

Nokra Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 But in all seriousness, yeah you want one or two layers of heat retention (e.g. hoodies, fleece) and a layer of wind/rain stopper (e.g. rain jacket, hardshell jacket, etc.). Hat/gloves optional, depending on your personal comfort level. It might also be a good opportunity to buy and wear a scarf, if you've never done so before. It's the style there (it's where I picked up the habit too) and it's pretty crazy what a difference it makes if your neck is no longer exposed and cold!

gamer.tv Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 My usual approach: t-shirt, hoody, jeans. If you get chilly, wear a nice bobble hat. Also, pack a decent waterproof coat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodporne Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Yeah man, layering is the way. That way when you inevitably enter a business/cafe/whatever and it's 90 degrees in there because everyone is chain-smoking and the radiators are turned to full heat in typical European fashion, you can cope with it. For me that temp is weather for undershirt, undershirt t-shirt over that, hoodie and light jacket combo. Thick socks and you're good.

Captain Pickle Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Buy a fall jacket. That’s fall weather. Or wear a bunch of hoodies and really look like a tourist. People wear jackets so they can take them off when they go inside. Also, long johns?!?! It ain’t that cold yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
