Help Me Choose Between 2 Summer Jackets?

[Eustace Tilley]

Love them both and can't decide. The first one is 8oz., the second is 9oz.

I prefer the second.

I like the colours and tones in the first over the second.

That being said, neither of them strike me as 'summer' colours.

Not even the first? I've always thought of that as a summer staple.

Vox's favorite video (featuring LB) has Lucy wearing a coat in a similar fabric.

I said #1, but Solway has some better choices.

Both are blah. Back to the drawing board

Just a matter of preference, for summer I like the first one as the base color is lighter. Also because the windowpane pattern is one color (rust) only.

Not very "summery" patterns. Of the two, I prefer the second.
But I'd go for something with more texture and a little less
earth toned. Specifically, I'm thinking of a jacket I've had for years
that's silk /wool/linen I think. It's a black/off -white and glen plaid
with slubs and a faint reddish overplaid . It's from Chipp I and
still receives compliments.

Since You are asking about summer jackets, and summer is the time of light wearings and are of light and bright colors.

I would suggest you to have first one because it has lighter shade then the second one. Light colors suits best for summer.

Dark colors are always perfect for winter and Fall .
