Jan and Feb) so I'd only be wearing them for October, November at the most, cause as the previous poster said, in the spring I ditch anything that reads winter! LOL </p> <p>If I was going to wear them I wouldn't spend a lot of money on them, but I'd wear the heck out of them for the two months that I could, and call it good at the end of the year!

Not so much in spring - everybody is so excited about being warm again that they ditch everything that reads "winter" But sure you'd use them in spring too. So, that makes 3 seasons out of 4 - I guess that's a window large enough </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-the-window-of-wearability-for-wool-shorts#post-782167 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 14:22:02 +0000 Raisin 782167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm in Canada too and I would say I can definitely do Sping and Fall....I'm still unsure about Summer though. Maybe some of it, but there's usually a hot streak around July / August. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-the-window-of-wearability-for-wool-shorts#post-782029 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 05:05:47 +0000 Suz 782029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow...I live in Canada, too, and it is WAY too hot for me to wear wool shorts in summer....</p> <p>It just goes to show you that even the great north has a varied climate. </p> <p>And that each of us has different temperature sensitivities! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-the-window-of-wearability-for-wool-shorts#post-782015 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 04:10:45 +0000 tayleigh 782015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't own them but I would probably be able to wear them all round - mind you I live in Canada and the summer rarely gets very warm anyway so ... </p> <p>They would probably work nicely in spring and fall as well though without tights! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-the-window-of-wearability-for-wool-shorts#post-782001 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 03:36:48 +0000 modgrl 782001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sure it's a short lived trend but who cares! I am having a little fun with it this winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-the-window-of-wearability-for-wool-shorts#post-781992 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 03:16:17 +0000 Thistle 781992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I live in Wisconsin, and it is way too hot here to wear wool shorts in the summer. And really cold here to sport them in the winter. They are really a fall/spring item for this climate.</p> <p>But then, I really view dresses as fall/ spring as I have yet to find those elusive fleece lined tights! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-the-window-of-wearability-for-wool-shorts#post-781953 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 02:32:55 +0000 Jyoti 781953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally do, lol. I live in Canada though and its generally fairly cold throughout the year. I think wool shorts can read as 'dressy' rather than 'winter' so it works to wear them in warmer weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-the-window-of-wearability-for-wool-shorts#post-781940 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 02:17:14 +0000 Diana 781940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I don't actually have wool shorts at the moment, although I am looking for some. Personally I wouldn't be able to wear them in the summer because I run hot and it's too humid here, so I would wear them in spring and fall mostly (with warmer tights and tall boots when it's colder and shorter boots/sheerer tights when more temperate.) I do have my slouchy black shorts, which are like a lined poly-blend light trouser material, and I do wear those in fall/spring with tights and boots, as well as in summer with bare legs and sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-the-window-of-wearability-for-wool-shorts#post-781878 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 01:30:02 +0000 Suz 781878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would imagine it would depend on your summer. For me, summer would be too warm for most wools, but I don't have air conditioning. </p> <p>"Spring" and fall would be another matter, though. I can see that, for sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-the-window-of-wearability-for-wool-shorts#post-781875 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 01:28:54 +0000 Raisin 781875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been seeing a lot of ladies rocking the winter wool shorts with tights on here. I have always loved the look but been afraid to try it. I did find a pair of black wool shorts I love, but I'm now wondering, do you guys also wear your wool shorts in the summer? I don't think I'd do the shorts and tights often enough to justify wool shorts if I only wore them in winter. </p>
