HATS.
Have I mentioned hats?  

Many people in the United States do not dress for the weather as much as they dress to comfortably travel by car.  So it is not so unusual for it to be 32F and see someone jogging to or from a car with an open jacket, and no scarf, hat or gloves.  Sometimes people do not even wear a coat.  

But here in Malmö, only half the population own a car.  So half the population are walking, or riding a bicycle, bus, and/or train to get where they need to be. When at a bus stop last year, I counted how many people were wearing something on their head.  Two thirds.  




Most men wearing headgear have a baseball style cap (often with a US team represented),
a knit cap, and/or a hood.  Many women also wear knit caps etc..  But some wear a more traditional wool or felt hat.  There is a milliner in town.  I am always surprised when milliners stay in business.  But this one remains, and I see the products of their work around town. Good for them!
