December Packing List for Fort Worth — What to Wear & Bring

Fort Worth's December low of 37°F, combined with the wind, requires a significant outer layer for comfort.

Natural fibers provide the best warmth-to-weight ratio for the 58°F afternoons and much colder nights.

For extra warmth while watching the cattle drive in the 58°F weather, consider jeans with a flannel or fleece lining.

Protect your legs from the cold December air while exploring the shops in the Stockyards district.

North Texas ice storms arrive suddenly in winter; flat, waterproof footwear beats fashionable heels in December.

Quality leather boots are a must for the unpaved sections of the Stockyards which can be frozen or muddy.

Essential for keeping your feet warm during the 37°F nights and the 7 days of average rainfall.

Retain maximum body heat during the cold 37°F nights by keeping your extremities covered.

A thick scarf is necessary to block the wind that funnels through the streets of Sundance Square.

The cold, dry December air in Fort Worth can be harsh on your skin; pack a travel-sized intensive moisturizer.
