Lightweight Fabrics and Clothing

The perfect fabrics if you are in the tropical are natural materials made from linen or cotton that are lightweight.

  • You should make sure that the material is lightweight.
  •  If light can pass through the clothing when you pass it through light.
  • Light and natural fabrics dry faster.

Lighter waves of wool are preferred like madras, seersucker or poplin, not twill, which is what materials like jeans are made of.  It is obvious that most jeans materials are heavy and may not allow you to relax comfortable when you are in the sun.

The Clothing Construction

The construction of a clothing is important while picking especially for men. If  clothing cannot exhibit the breathable and lightweight properties, it is best considered useless. Take for instance, a blazer that is lined with satin, silk or polyester, the fabrics are going to heat up the inner layers.

Lighter Colour Materials

It is a general knowledge that dark colours absorb more light compared to light colours.  The dark coloured materials tend to be hotter during the hot season.  Dark shades of green, puple and blue can generate thermal energy when they are exposed to hot weather. Whether you are an office person or not, light coloured materials are preferred during this climatic condition.

Linen Shirts

Bring down your body temperature when you go for linen shirts that are comfortable and lightweight. Though, you need time during ironing to make it straightened.

For cotton materials, you should go for 100% cotton. Oxford cotton, Herringbone and twill should not be your option during the hot season.

Being comfortable during hot weather is a priority. You can achieve this with light coloured breathable and lightweight fabrics that are constructed with the right materials. Style should not be sacrificed when choosing materials for the weather.  You can get a good mix of classic style and comfort for the season. You may have to stay away from black coloured clothing as much as you can especially if you are not using an air conditioned car and office.  Medically, you can avoid rashes and other heat related sicknesses when you dress properly during the hot season.
