What Garland's weather means for gyms
Garland averages a high of 95°F in August and reaches 90°F on about 93 days a year, so the shirts members train in are tanks, muscle tees and light performance tees. Fleece gets a proper season from December to February, when average highs sit under 65°F, and a hoodie or crewneck drop timed for its first weeks sells better than one left on the rack all year. Tank season is April to October, the months with average highs of 70°F or more; launch a new tank or challenge shirt near its start so it sells for the whole run. About 35 nights a year drop to freezing or below, which keeps a beanie and a crewneck on the front desk through winter. Rain peaks in October at about 5.3 inches, so schedule outdoor challenges around it and give members an indoor-class tee for the wet weeks.
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.

Ordering from Garland
When should a gym in Garland stock hoodies?
By December. Freezing nights arrive with the months under a 65°F average high, so hoodies, crewnecks and a beanie should be on the rack then, and tanks can take their place again after February.
