The Importance of Layering for Spring Outdoor Adventures

When choosing clothes for spring, you’ll need to master the art of layering. Because let’s be real - no two days in spring look the same. Temperatures often shift throughout the day, and surprise rain showers are a guarantee. 

If you’re heading outdoors, you’ll need to find clothes that are equally functional as they are comfortable. 

To make it easy, we pulled together the ultimate spring outfit layering guides below in our best-selling women and mens styles that are easy to pack and offer key fabric features made for outdoor activities. 

A few features you can spot include durable eco-friendly materials, water-resistance technology, and robust UPF sun protection. Explore below!
