Hi Yumeko-san, I will be going to Narita & Tokyo Japan this coming January and stay till early April. Can you please advise me what type of winter wears do I need to get? For example, trenchcoat type? Then do I need to get gloves and knit cap? Thanks for answering the qns and sorry for asking you so many qns – your sincere reader frm Singapore
PS. This is my first time going to Japan and also to a 4 seasons country. =)
Hi Monica
everyone reacts to cold differently so i really cant tell you what you will need
However i can tell you that it will be an average of 3 to 5 degrees [its colder in january than december and February is coldest in japan]
personally i dont think a trenchcoat is enough
its about 7 to 10 degrees here now and i think everyone is already wearing puffy coats or wool coats and wearing scarves, gloves and beanies.
hope this helps!
