Hello,

I’m contemplating getting a balmacaan or 3/4 SB coat. It would be nice to have something in a patterned tweed. The question is, what weight is suitable? It feels like 700g might be the minimum for autumn and early winter in Stockholm. For reference, I have a 900g Donegal tweed balmacaan which works well in winter but it’s too warm for autumn. What do you think?
