Deciding what to wear for apple picking is fun, too! I’m not going to lie, there are times I just enjoy going for the apple-picking outfits! It’s fun to toss on a flannel shirt and jeans for an afternoon outside. The first thing you need to do is check the weather to see what the day is going to be like. The best day for apple picking is a crisp, sunny afternoon with the weather in the 70s and 80s.

What to Wear to Go, Apple Picking

Here are some top tips for what to wear when apple picking to keep in mind when trying to decide on what to wear. This is a great way to get fashion self ready for a day of fall fun. Hopefully, these fashion tips and advice will help you pick the perfect outfit when you’re wondering about what to wear apple picking.

  • Layer your clothes so that you can take off layers if need be – especially if it’s a chilly day. One of the best kinds of fashion items to layer with is a denim jacket, flannel shirt, waterproof jackets, button-down plaid top, or cardigan sweater. These are simple items that you can toss over tanks and tees. Or simply opt for lighter fabrics rather than something warm such as big bulky sweaters because those will only make getting into the trees more difficult.

Denim Jacket

  • Wear what you’re most comfortable in, but avoid shorts and flip-flops as they may not be the best for a day of walking around. Depending on where you’re apple picking, you might want to opt instead for pants and closed-toe shoes like sneakers or ankle boots. You could choose skinny jeans, pair of leggings, straight jeans, or cropped workout pants. These are all good options when it comes to covering your legs.

Adidas Sneakers for Women

  • It’s a good normally a good idea to avoid flip flops or sandals because you’re doing tons of walking when you’re apple picking and want to make sure your feet are comfortable. Boots are always a good idea! It’s going to be pretty muddy so don’t forget your waterproof boots, duck boots or rain boots (I’m obsessed with Hunter Boots) with you, or any kind of shoes that can get wet. Look for shoes with rubber soles. There’s a method to the fashion madness when deciding on an apple-picking shoe.

  • If the day is a beautiful, bright sunny day, don’t forget to wear a hat when putting together apple orchard outfits. Any type of hat will do whether it’s a baseball hat or a sun hat. It will give you extra sun protection on your face outside while your picking. Make sure to grab that extra pair of sunglasses, too for extra coverage.
