Striped Linen Summer Shirt

Linen fabrics are incredibly breathable and, like seersucker, typically made to be worn in hot climates. Linen is made from fiber of the flax plant, and can be very labor intensive to produce. Typically linen will be more loosely woven and sheer than most cotton shirts, and has a very unique dry hand to it that is unlike cotton. Linen also tends to wrinkle more easily than cotton and generally feels much more relaxed because of this. While we love the look and feel of linen, some people prefer cotton/linen blended shirts as you can achieve much of the coolness of a linen shirt while reducing the wrinkling.

Linen  is a textile made from the fibers of the flax plant. Linen is laborious to manufacture, but the fiber is very absorbent and shirts made of linen are valued for their exceptional coolness and freshness in hot weather.
