Embroidery through Torrance's year
August, the warmest month, averages a high of 78°F, mild enough for a structured cap or a polo in any month. December averages a high of only 66°F, so a long-sleeve polo carries the left chest logo through the cooler months. Six or more months a year get under half an inch of rain; in that long sun, a garment-dyed cotton cap fades toward a washed look.
