As February nears to an end, we should prepare for summer months. In the norther parts of India, spring will manifest itself in glorious ways while in the rest of India, it may be hotter than this region. From April onwards, the great Indian summer will come charging in. Sweat and heat will be our constant companions. In such a scenario, it would be wise to invest in garments that will make life better.
Breathable fabric is an ideal choice for dealing with summer months. It absorbs sweat fast, dries it faster, is lightweight and hence easy to manage. Among popular fabrics that are known for the above mentioned qualities include cotton and linen. These days, a blend of both these fabrics are also available.
While Indians are obviously aware of cotton, many others may have heard of linen though not fully aware of its characteristics. Like cotton, this too is a natural fibre, extracted from flax plant. It is a very strong absorbent and it dries faster than cotton. So, investing in shirts made from a blend of these two fabrics can go a long way in easing our summer woes.
