Don't worry about referencing name brands here (unless the name of the brand is actually offensive or a profanity!). I actually like it when posters get specific about gear brands because it can really help other people know what kind of jackets, gloves, shoes, etc. work well at DLR. I've learned a lot from other posters' references to name brands which were new to me.
OP: I'm a local, but have lived in other parts of the U.S and abroad where it gets cold in the winter, so I understand that 49*F has various interpretations. Here's what I was wearing in the parks last night: light thermals (top and bottom), turtleneck, fleece, 600 fill down jacket (stored in a locker until evening -- during the day, the fleece was enough), light gloves, wool hat, jeans, wool socks, tennis shoes. It was a little warm for swing dancing (ended up ditching the down jacket, but keeping the fleece), but perfect for rides, fireworks, and everything else in DTD and in the parks. Don't forget to bring sunscreen! Even in cooler weather, it can still be very sunny here -- I got a little sunburned in the afternoon yesterday. Met someone at dinner who mentioned that the same thing happened to her yesterday.
I thought so, but the boards wouldn't let me post if I had the word "UGG" boot in the description. It told me to take the word out.
Edited: Hmm, now it's working! Yeah I clicked on submit and it said something like banned words: ugg boot. I kind of lol'd cause that seemed weird, but maybe it was a fluke. I'll edit my above post.
