Before even trying on, check the thickness of your men’s jacket in less than 10 seconds by touch and sight ! Indeed, when you are hot, the material is decisive. Microfiber must be flexible , soft and light to make your jacket breathable .
So, take an extra 30 seconds to read the label and discover the fiber that made this item of clothing. Reading well means not coming back to it (important you have 3 minutes to spare)! Here are the sweet names to remember:
- Linen: Famous in summer, linen is a hydrophilic material that absorbs water quickly while maintaining a dry effect to the touch. It is one of the lightest fibers to wear.
- Cotton: Cotton has good permeability and therefore lets your skin breathe thanks to its lightness. In addition, this natural material does not make you sweat.
- Cold wool: This extra-fine wool is suitable for summer thanks to its great breathable quality . So don’t run away when you see the word “wool” on the label.
- Denim or tencel: With their blue tint , these materials do not attract heat ! Denim is a thicker fiber that can be worn oversized, while tencel can be worn close to the body in summer.
Tip 3: Choose your men’s jacket in the right color!
Summer often rhymes with colorful looks , so at first glance only be interested in light shades evocative of summer adventures . Indeed, it no longer needs to be proven that dark shades like black or navy blue attract and retain heat!
