When is it okay to start wearing these again? Varies by region? Temperature? Months?

For this exercise, assume it's Dallas and there are navy and tan options available.

TIA

I've always liked the tan coloured ones, but never pulled the trigger....not sure how warm they are, but I'd say spring/summer, but I have no idea, actually

Camel hair jackets are like felt hats. If it's 40 degrees out, either (or both) fit the bill nicely. If it's 95 out, then I'm not wearing either one regardless of what the "rules" say or if it's after labor day, or before easter, or it's hannukah or ramadan or what.

But maybe I'm just practical like that.

Never been a fan of those. I would rather just wear a Harris tweed or a tattersall pattern sport coat.

It's just hard for me to pull it off.

Oh, and I own one camel hair jacket in black and find it extremely comfortable when the temps are below about 55 or so. I'll likely get another in navy at some point.

Jar,

You'd dig a camel hair jacket. Comes in handy when a suit coat isn't heavy enough and a top coat is too much. Kind of like the sweater vest is for casual wear, but for semi-formal.

I've been wanting one for a while, but I don't know when I'd ever wear one down here.

They're OK but a bit dated.

Good with jeans if you must.

I like getting clothes a size or two too big because I'm still hoping to hit a growth spurt

I prefer tweed over camel hair even though it isn't quite as versatile...LOTS of camel hair jackets I have seen appear limp and really sloppy

I think I will hold off wearing one until the high temp of the day is sub 60. I think that's a decent rule.
