More Information
It's Down to Basics
Casual and semi-casual wear is fine and accepted at most places in San Antonio. It does get humid so fabrics that breathe are highly recommended. If you're going out for the evening, casual attire is usually the accepted garb unless it's a special event like a wedding reception or an upscale restaurant that requires diners to wear more formal attire. Regardless of the season, be sure to invest in a comfortable pair of shoes whether you are a visitor or resident. It's the type of city where you will probably be out-and-about as there is so much to do and see. Be sure to invest in a good pair of sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays and sunscreen if you enjoy outdoor water activities.
Overall, blue jeans coupled with sleeveless or short sleeved casual tops are a big part of the dress style in San Antonio and most of Texas. In fact, many restaurant guests are dressed in casual clothing. You will see everything from individuals dressed in a classy suit to someone else wearing a pair of shorts and sneakers at the same venue. At night people like to go clubbing. And like any other city, people want to show-off their best look. Yet, in San Antonio people prefer to chill-out in casual gear, especially in the summer when high temperatures can linger into the late night hours.
Temperatures are rather pleasant during the winter season. The average is around the mid-to-upper 60s with the lowest around the mid-40s depending on the month. This is the time of year when style can take priority over practicality as the weather is less stressful. Wearing your best outfit and not worrying about sweat stains and body odor is a relief! Still, dressing properly for the weather and comfort should still be a priority. If you have a favorite suit or shawl made of wool, this would be the time of the year to show them off. In fact, synthetic man-made materials are fine this time of year as humidity and heat is not a big issue.
Just Relax and Enjoy!
There's a confident vibe about San Antonio and the people basically wear what they want. As a city flush with entertainment, culture, and history, you can dress how you feel while taking pleasure in everything this vibrant city has to offer. Enjoy!
