I don't know who it was, but at some point, there was a clothing designer tasked with coming up with something dads living in colder climates could regularly wear, say, from October through April.
The result was the quarter-zip fleece, and I am eternally grateful for this person's efforts.
This time of year, I wear one of these garments probably five or six days a week. I own a half dozen of them in various colors that I pair with an undershirt (always white, gray, or black) and jeans, and I'm ready to go.
You cannot claim to be a Dadwear aficionado if you don't have at least a few of these in your closet. For the record, you also need several print polo shirts, a few pairs of khaki shorts, and an array of t-shirts you wear to mow the lawn.
Let it be known that I wish to be buried in a quarter-zip fleece, even if I die in July. If you want, you can put it on me over a shirt and tie. I'm not a total goober.
