Is summer shaping up to be a scorcher? Quite the opposite, it's the perfect opportunity to reveal the unexpected elegance of the shirt. With the right materials and cuts, this essential piece of the men's wardrobe combines lightness, comfort, and style in the sun. At Hast, we know that wearing a shirt in summer is an art form, allowing you to stay cool while remaining impeccable. Here are five of our favorite ways to get through the heat with elegance.
The shirt in linen or light cotton
The secret to a successful summer shirt starts with the fabric. At Hast, we've selected premium cottons and fine linens, perfectly suited to hot weather. These natural, breathable materials wick away moisture and allow air to circulate. A linen or lightweight cotton shirt , in a fitted but not too tight cut, is the first step to wearing a shirt well in summer. Choose light colors that reflect light, such as white or sky blue .
A question of cut
Good fabric isn't enough; the fit of your shirt plays a vital role in your summer comfort. Relaxed- fit or slightly fitted shirts ensure ideal freedom of movement without feeling tight against your skin. At Hast, the precision of the cut is designed to strike the perfect balance between modernity and ease. Wearing a shirt in summer also means choosing a silhouette that breathes and adapts to all your activities, whether professional or casual.
The short-sleeved shirt
The short-sleeved shirt is the perfect way to tackle the hottest days without sacrificing style. At Hast, it's designed with just as much care as our classic styles: lightweight, breathable fabrics like Tencel or chambray , a precise cut, and careful finishing. Paired with double-pleated pants or shorts , the short-sleeved shirt perfectly embodies the balance between comfort and elegance.
The choice of colors
Light colors naturally dominate in summer, not only because they reflect light and limit heat, but also because they fit into a light and bright aesthetic. White, ecru, pale blue, or pastel shades are essential for wearing a shirt in summer with style. At Hast, these shades are enhanced by careful finishing that makes all the difference.
Focus on natural materials
At Hast, we favor natural fibers that promote breathability and lightness. Cotton, linen , and Fresco® wool are all carefully chosen fabrics to accompany men in search of freshness. Wearing a shirt in summer doesn't necessarily mean sacrificing style: quite the contrary, it's about mastering the art of elegant casualness, with materials that allow air to circulate while maintaining an impeccable fit.
The final word
Wearing a shirt in summer ultimately means subtly rethinking your codes. Natural materials, carefully designed cuts, luminous hues... every detail counts to get through the season with precision. At Hast, we believe that elegance and comfort are never incompatible, even under a blazing sun. All that's left is to choose the shirt that will see you through the summer.
