all-season
Good any time
All-season describes something designed to perform adequately across varying weather conditions throughout the year.
Most often applied to tires: all-season tires offer a compromise between summer grip and winter traction, suitable for moderate climates but not extreme snow or ice.
The term extends to clothing, gear, and outdoor equipment meant to handle multiple seasons without swapping out: an all-season jacket, all-season patio furniture.
