Linen is the fabric of choice of traditional guayaberas. Been a natural fabric from the flax plant and its a millennial fabric, in fact the mummies in Egypt are wrapped in linen.
This fabric has great benefits for hot weather mainly because its fresh light weight and cools easy. Linen is woven together in a way that allows for more air flow than any other fabric. It is moisture absorbency and comfortable.
Linen is less likely to cling to your sky therefore allowing more ventilation and air flow.
Cotton blend guayaberas are very versatile while maintaining the traditional features. This makes the shirts very easy to care for, as they are machine washable and do not wrinkle as the linen.
These cotton blend guayabera shirts are mostly a polyester and cotton blend. Mostly 65% polyester and 35% cotton in a light weight fabric. With these shirts you will find a great variety of colors.
In conclusion if you are looking for a unique color chances are the cotton blend guayabera shirts is were you will find it.
