Are Cuban collars fashionable?
If you’ve been living under the assumption that Cuban Collared Shirts are only for actual Cubans and 2nd/3rd generation American Italian immigrants who are trying to keep “the family business” alive, you’re wrong. Cuban collars are for you, us, and everyone else, and they’re very fashionable right now, mi capisci?
You’ve got Seersucker, you’ve got Linen, you’ve got Cotton, you’ve got Long Sleeves. They’re all going to go with just about any outfit you might have planned for the summer, and they’re going to keep you fresh, breezy, and offer all the upper body movement you could possibly need. They’re one of those rare items that are equal parts comfortable and smart, whilst also being breathable.
How should a Cuban collar shirt fit?
The best thing about the Cuban Shirt is the fact that you can wear it around the house for catching up on your programmes, you can wear it to a fancy dinner, you can wear it to the pub, you can wear it for walking the dog, and you’re going to look great without looking overdressed or underdressed. The Cuban managed to tap into that style alchemy that so few fully understand (and we’ll never tell).
Pair a Cuban Shirt with Linen Trousers for a chill look, or with a Suit for a smart casual look. A Cuban will also go lovely with a good pair of Jeans, or will transform into an ultra-breezy look when paired with Linen Shorts. You quite genuinely can’t really go wrong with a Cuban Shirt.
