@Tago-Mago limited experience of T3s (slubby OD and moleskin - love both) but I wonder if OD is the way forward for you if you want denim and you’re sensitive to length as there’s no risk of shrinkage.

[Tago Mago]

@ARNC that is actually a really good point that I hadn't considered. Plenty of informed opinions here, lots to think about

[ARNC]

@Tago-Mago maybe the answer is just to try everything when you’re in Gosport.

[Tago Mago]

That is definitely the plan. The unknown variable at this point is availability of the individual items. Forget length and cloth, that may end up being the deciding factor. I've already spoken to Adam C and I'll just have to wait and see

@Kasi type 3, no tee, unbuttoned…too hot to handle.

@Heavy_blue I'm with you on the one Jeff, my ideal weather is around 2c (35f) and sunny.

Layers on, sunglasses on, feeling like King of the World

@T4920

Hamburg was to hot for you I guess

[T4920]

@Kasi just a little yeah.. Ideally I'd never wanna be in 30c + heat unless by a pool or on the beach!

I was going to resist the temptation to remark on two degrees being your favourite temp, at risk of being a bore. However, me and @Steve discuss this at length, so I can't let it go, that's lunacy

18 mild British degrees is the sweet spot

Yes, I am taking the piss by referring to them as 'British' degrees

[Tago Mago]

@AdamJ British degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit?

[AdamJ]

@Tago-Mago neither

[ARNC]

@AdamJ it probably depends if you’re in summer mode or winter mode. Fair enough for summer but 18° in an N1 … 🥵

[Kasi]

Can’t handle the heat

So soft

[T4920]

@AdamJ so you're saying that Steve is on my side?

In the daytime, I find 12c to be the upper limit of being able to comfortably wear a heavy denim jacket on a brisk walk.

Below 5c I can comfortably wear a shirt/tee under the jacket without getting clammy, and 2c is the absolute sweet spot imo.

I just hate wearing only a t shirt, heavy clothing makes me feel confident and comfortable, which makes me associate cooler weather with feeling my very best.

[AdamJ]

@T4920 Quite the opposite, legend has it, he's been spotted wearing his N1 mid July

[IrishHeart]

@endo unfortunately in the UK, summer tends only to be the best week of the year!
