Much to the chagrin of my esposa, who considers this type of raiment suitable only for viejitos like the gentleman pictured below, I see a white, linen guayabera in my future! Love those big pockets (suitable for a Cohiba or two) and the loose fit!
you know, I suspect that in really hot stuff, a shirt like this would work well for the sun.
you do realize however that there is a risk that you will be overcome by the desire to embark into 5, 6, 7 or 8 hour diatribes on a podium, while the minions infront of you dont dare leave or risk being put in jail....oh wait, maybe the shirt wont cause that....but you never know
