I hate fabrics with man-made content like Polyester - crap for the environment (microfibres from this stuff is killing our oceans), burns like a b#st#rd (no naked flames!), it makes you sweat like a fat kid playing rounders, it feels nasty against the skin, it often looks cheap and shiny plus there is a reason why it’s cheap. Aloha or Hawaiian shirts should be cotton with wooden buttons - that’s the spec. Also, there is a reason why they are made of cotton in one of the hottest and humid islands in the middle of the Pacific - they keep you cool!

Leave the nasty-nylon garments to those that play Kev-Ball...

Here are some top tips on how to stay cool from the Aussies (who should know what they are on about): https://www.abc.net.au/everyday/fash...mmers/11739222
