What would have Crockett and Tubbs worn in the Winter?

LOL, I can't see that ensemble keeping a person warm in weather below 40F ;)

IMO if Crockett--who had lived all his life in basically a tropical climate--was living or working in NYC during the winter (for example), he would need thermal underwear top and bottom, heated socks (like hunters wear), a warm jacket (at least) or full-length coat, a muffler, and fur-lined leather gloves.  Wool slacks.  Lined boots that cover the ankles to keep the snow out.  He might carry some hand-warmers in his pockets.  A hat or ski cap.  Plus he would complain abut how the cold is making his trick knee act up.

Tubbs would dress for winter but just in a normal way.  Fedora, coat, scarf, gloves, suit, T-shirt under his shirt.  Ankle boots so snow doesn't get in his shoes.

yeah it depends if it's in tropical climate or real cold like NY. if tropical, then just a bit thick rain cloth. if it's NY, Crockett bit thick, sober, modern, and light tones (light grey..), Tubbs thick, classy (alpaca..), dark tones (black, very dark anthracite/charcoal, very dark green..)

Yes I’ve felt cold at times in January and February in South Florida and Miami but nothing like as cold as it gets in California that time of year :hippie:

I lived in Miami from 2001-2003 & never remember it being cold- still have family there & visit often too.

Now what is really alarming is the way Tubbs dressed- he wouldn't have survived 5 minutes even in winter time Miami! He would've died of heat stroke!

Gene Hackman should have wore that in the French Connection:)

The part where he's freezing to death outside whilst waiting for Frog one to come out of the restaurant would've been interesting.

Exactly unless they were fine silk suits which I suspect

That’s a great look from the Summer of 1986, these were promo shots from the beginning of Season 3:hippie:
