Hey there,
Summer is in full swing, and staying stylish while battling the heat remains a top priority. Here’s my guide to dressing well in hot weather, keeping you polished and comfortable through every cookout, rooftop, or evening soirée.
Essential tips for mastering hot-weather menswear:
- Embrace Unstructured Tailoring: When a jacket is called for, choose an unstructured blazer or sport coat in linen, cotton, or a lightweight blend. Unlined and free of heavy padding, these pieces allow for airflow and movement while still looking smart. Perfect for summer weddings, dinners, or even patriotic festivities.
- Versatility of the Polo Shirt: A well-fitting polo shirt in breathable pique cotton or a modern performance fabric is your summer MVP. Dress it up with tailored trousers or keep it casual with shorts—it’s ideal for everything from office Fridays to 4th of July parties.
- Strategic Footwear & No-Show Socks: Say goodbye to heavy socks and shoes. Opt for no-show socks with loafers, boat shoes, or even dress shoes, and let your feet breathe. Or lean into breathable summer footwear like espadrilles or open-weave sneakers for a laid-back, stylish look.
- Thoughtful Accessories: Keep accessories functional and light; a hat adds sun protection and elegance; lightweight sunglasses are a must; and a breathable NATO or canvas watch strap will keep your wrist cool.
- Grooming for Freshness: Finally, don’t overlook grooming. A neat summer haircut, a refreshing citrus-based fragrance, and proper hydration go a long way toward looking and feeling your best, even on the hottest days.
