Get your wardrobe in order, guys — summer is here!

With Singapore located around the tropics, that bring about tropical climate, one can expect hot and humid weather all year ‘round. This being said, it’s basically summer every day in Singapore— and on top of that, we’re nearing the warmest time of the year where the heat reaches its peak.

So for all the guys out there, sweat less and prepare yourself for the scorching hot summer with these fresh summer fashion tips!

Summer Shorts

Quite obvious, but essential for your next few summer looks. We recommend chino or athletic shorts for the hot summer. For chino shorts, pastel colors are in, but if you are looking for something that makes less of a statement then sticking to neutrals could be a solid option.

Athletic shorts are good for casual situations, whether mesh or sweat, they can definitely keep you cool while looking cool.

Summer Shirts

With temperatures expected go up as high as 39°C in the upcoming months, you might want to stick to lighter-colored shirts — not unless you’d like to strut visible sweat stains as a unique fashion statement. Choosing the right fabric could make all the difference between you sweating bullets, not perspiring at all, or at the very least sweating less. Summer-friendly fabrics such as cotton and linen are perfect, while it might be best to avoid nylon, polyester, and rayon this season.

Beachwear

There’s no better way to enjoy summer in Singapore than hitting the beach. With beachwear evolving — for the better — over the past decade (please, it’s time to say goodbye to loose and baggy swim shorts) people are opting for more functional and versatile pieces that are made not just for poolside fun, but pieces you can casually wear on the daily, too. Opting for light colors with lightweight and fast-drying linen as your choice of beachwear could mean the perfect balance of style and function.

Summer Loafers & Sandals

Loafers and sandals are classic footwear choices that never fail during summer. Loafers are easily incorporated into a variety of outfits, while sandals are perfect for the beach or even just for casual strolling. Summer fashion doesn’t have to be restricted to formal or casual looks, just be aware of how hot it can get during these months!
