What Garland's weather means for clothing brands
Customers in Garland see roughly 93 days a year at 90°F or above, peaking in August at an average high of 95°F; a garment-dyed midweight tee wears cooler than a dense heavyweight and keeps the premium feel. January tops out at an average high of 56°F and highs stay below 65°F from December to February, so a heavyweight hoodie and a beanie belong in the winter drop, not only light layers. About 42 inches of rain a year gives a reason to add a nylon coaches jacket or a water-resistant windbreaker to the fall release, a piece that works when it is too warm for fleece. About 35 nights a year reach freezing, so a fall release with a beanie and a crewneck that layers under a jacket covers the cold snaps. October brings the year's heaviest rain, around 5.3 inches, so shoot product for the next drop before it arrives and keep that month's release online.
Garland's weather figures come from the same NOAA stations as Plano's (Richardson), so the month-by-month table is on the Plano page.

When should a clothing brand in Garland drop fleece?
Not too early: average highs only drop under 65°F in December, so have the fleece drop live a few weeks before then rather than at the first hint of fall.
