Correct.
Correct.
I went in August, and everyone was dressed like they were in Boston.
W leggings
No lies told here.
One neat trick for SF clothing: It will get down to the mid-50s every single night. Windy, kinda chilly. No, it doesn’t matter how nice it was during the day. Every night. All year long. The handful of exceptions are essentially random. The hardest part is emotionally accepting this truth.
If in SF, plan for highs in low 60s. If venturing outside the city & county, highs in mid 70s to low 80s. Been a very temperate summer this year which means Sept-Oct will be scorching.
Winning! You got it!
Yes. I was only slightly less puffy and the Giants game yesterday afternoon
That's very appropriate
You just need a slanket.
Yes, that was my experience.
That’s about it
That's why they sell sweatshirts everywhere. No one is prepared!
You should also check in with Karl for his opinion. :)
Yes, that is correct
Layers. Always layers.
“The coldest winter I ever spent was in San Francisco “ -often mistakenly attributed to Mark Twain.
I always heard it as "The coldest winter I ever spent was summer in San Francisco."
Yes hehe- I forgot that key word-summer.
That is correct.
For San Francisco in July, dress for late October-early November and you'll be fine.
As a former resident of the SF Bay Area, that looks about right!
Light jacked or windbreaker. Double w/a light second layer if needed.
For someone who has lived here since 2013, accurate. Layers. Beanie, light wind breaker coat, decent walking shoes.
Alternatively you can do like many girls did when I was in high school (winter in coastal SoCal#, and wear a tank top and shorts with boots, a scarf, and a knit cap. 🤷
I remember having to buy a winter-wool jacket in August.
Nailed it! Don't forget the sunscreen.
Nailed it!
For sure there's a Fisherman's Wharf t-shirt under there.
Nailed it!
That is the perfect SF outfit.
That’s it exactly.
Layering, not only in SF but everywhere: light jacket with hood, down / fiber jacket with hood for warmth, and waterproof / windproof outer shell. Mix and match as needed.
To break it down a little more: bottom layer of a "softshell," fleece, multi-layer cotton, or lightweight fiber-fill jacket, a mid-layer like 800-power down fill, and a 20k/20k shell for breathable windcutting and true near waterproofness and you're then good for most land envs. above zero degs. F.
*Hood on the shell too, obvs.
yeah, no - that's pretty close. We are talking Bone Chilling out on the water or in certain breezy neighborhoods.
Completely accurate.
The over under on “I ❤️ San Francisco” hoodies you will see on a given day in the touristy areas is 15
Looks about right! A backpack to carry your layers until you suddenly need them helps.
And then carry them again when you suddenly no longer need them.
Exactly
Yeah that's about right, you got it
Correct
100 percent. But if you venture outside the city to Marin or the South Bay or the east bay (anywhere thats not on the bay) definitely bring summer clothes. Micro climates like a mf in the bay.
Oh shit I didn’t see the bottom half of the pic lmaooo, yes that is definitely the wardrobe needed 😂😂😂
The bay area does its seasons by geography instead of the old fashioned time-based system the rest of the world uses.
💯 lmao
That's about right.
Facts, I bought a big fuzzy coat
It’s been a cold summer, so this is about right.
Yes.
If you are coming now and not leaving the City shorts are too optimistic.
It sounds ridiculous until you experience a San Francisco summer.
That looks about right.
No neutrals. Bright colors only. Be bold.
Yup it’s been pretty chilly I just got back last week
💯
You got good advice
🤣
You learned so fast.
Yep. So if you go to the ocean beach you will need a puffer jacket in evening, but if you go south of market the mission it can be quite warm. Many microclimates
