4 Winter Suits that Don’t Feel Heavy

We love a thick tweed, three-piece suit for its handsome looks and dapper nature. What we don’t love is sweating through it within the first five minutes of wearing because it’s so hot. Even in the dead of winter, an ultra heavyweight suit isn’t always ideal, especially if you’re going to be inside where the heat is on full blast. If you own one, you know the pieces are best worn separately so you’re not roasting from head to toe. Because we strive for comfort without sacrificing an ounce of style, we found the best lightweight winter suits that are also seasonally appropriate. Check out our favorites and make the most of freezing temperatures.
