Depending on where you live, the weather can feel like anywhere from summer to the midst of winter. And that’s just talking about the Northern Hemisphere. But the fact of the matter is that the Daylight Savings Time switch is just weeks away, and with it the promises of spring. Manufacturers and retailers that are flush with leftover jackets and sweaters from winter are painfully aware of this fact. That makes it a great time to pick up their inevitable spring jacket and sweater deals.
Besides, we all know of the “fake spring” phenomenon — where there are a couple of warm weeks in early March before a final cold period. It’s part of the reason why our male fashion expert, Mark McKee, refers to the spring wardrobe as the “transition wardrobe” that is to be filled with layer after layer for the rapidly changing temperatures of the time. Likewise, sweaters and jackets are important for the spring hiking period. So, grab up these spring jacket and sweater deals while you can — you’re bound to get more value out of them than you expect.
