    When it drops to the low 70's, I take my shorts off & put on jeans, with a long sleeve shirt. If it drops to the low
    60's , I don't even bother to go out.

    I just stopped wearing shorts the other day when daytime temps hit 10C/50F.

    One of the great things about down is its breathability. I've never put TWS on clothing so I *honestly* don't know what it would do, but is it still breathable? Does it go all stiff from the TWS?
    My cold/wet, weather jackets are heavy canvas,not typical nylon type down sports jackets,they do get stiff with the TWS.

    When it gets above 40F (4.44C) in the spring, the kids are in T-shirts and shorts.

    For everyday use I'd go with the 'Varsity ' type jacket. I'd just watch what it said you you stay to be seasonly appropriate. You know Baseball in Dec??
    Think these look good...

    Warm autumn day with 42F outside. When the weather gets under -30C/-22F at winter, then it is not so nice anymore.

    And that, my friends, is a proper winter day. You're making me all nostalgic for my hometown of Winnipeg, Sailor!

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

    I've seen the temp drop to -30F(-34.4C). I do wish the Winnepegians would keep that weather out of Minnesota.

    We're such a caring, giving people we just can't help but share.
