When you live in a cold climate like in Canada, where fall and spring are short bookends for a hot & humid summers and eternal cold winters, the question is moot, unless you're a lawyer or politician.

Most people look like Bigfoot or Chewbacca with unwieldiness boots, heavy coats, and many layers of clothing. The only people, I've seen crazy enough to wear not much are teenagers, who looks like cooked shrimps/lobsters, shivering with their phone glued/frozen to their hands

As for summer, everyone wears the least amount possible. So wearing a jacket is not optional, unless getting married, or going to a wedding....
That leaves a few months, where one can play dandy. And frankly it's not worth a while to lose a Pelikan, unless it's just a faux lid, as an accessory
