What San Antonio's weather means for clothing brands
Summer in San Antonio is long, with about 112 days of 90°F-plus heat a year and August highs averaging 95°F, so a lighter jersey tee under 6 oz/yd² (about 200 GSM) should sit beside the heavyweight boxy staple. With average highs under 65°F only from December to January, fleece heavier than 12 oz/yd² (about 400 GSM) is likely more than local customers need; a midweight hoodie or a French terry crewneck fits the climate better. In heat like this, launch summer pieces in spring, before the hottest weeks, and hold heavier pieces until the first cool nights, so each drop lands when customers want to wear it. Rain peaks at about 4.4 inches in May, so keep a covered or indoor backup for any launch event planned that month.

When should a clothing brand in San Antonio drop fleece?
Fleece weather is short here, so one hoodie drop is enough; have it live by the holidays, which fall just before or during the cool stretch, so it doubles as a gift release.
