Best summer shirts for men: Opt for breathable fabrics and comfortable cuts

Last Published on Apr 04, 2022 21:33 IST

Summary:

Summer shirts for men made from cotton, linen or cotton blended fabrics and cut in comfortable designs can help one deal with summer heat.  


Indian summer is here. The sun is beating down on us with fiery intensity. The only matter being discussed is how to stay cool in these hard times. From what drinks to consume, what clothes to wear to deal with sweat and perspiration to what footwear to choose to ensure our feet don't sweat and smell foul, managing heat is foremost on our minds. One of the most effective ways to stay cool is to dress right. From the choice of fabric to the design and cuts of the garments we wear, everything has a bearing on how our body copes with heat. In fabric, it is always advisable to go for cotton, linen and rayon. Cotton is known for its water-absorbing quality. It is also a breathable fabric, which means it allows air to pass through. Fabrics like linen also have moisture-wicking qualities, which means that they can draw moisture out of skin but unlike cotton, they dry faster. Both the fabrics are cool and light and are hence very comfortable to wear in summer. Though not as good as cotton and linen, but rayon too is a lightweight fabric and can be an option. Some shirts are also available in a blend of cotton with polyester or rayon to give the fabric a bit of firmness.

Speaking of designs and cuts, it is always a good idea to opt for comfortable-fitting garments. Half sleeves and sleeveless options also work rather well. For men, going in for shirts made from the above-mentioned fabric is a great way to deal with oppressive summer heat. We have curated a list which you may find handy.
