What to wear in 110 degree heat with high humidity?

Mycubanstore.com have Irish linen guayaberas on sale in the long sleeves for weddings. http://www.mycubanstore.com/100-irish-linen-cuban-stlye-elegant-french-cuffs-long-sleeve

I ordered a pair of ivory Irish linen trousers from mycubanstore.com last week. For $48, they wouldn't have been bad except for one problem--the fabric is so thin that you can see far more detail than I wish to divulge in public! They'll be on their way back to Miami as soon as I get to the local UPS store.

A guayabera in that weight fabric, however, would probably be just right. I guess I'll try the linen trousers from Dress Monkey next.

And BTW, Florida has never recorded a temp of 110°. Miami, for instance, has only reached 100° once in its history.


Good point. But come away from the coast. The State all-time record is 109 degrees F. at Monticello, Florida in June, 1931. Ouch !

Light colors, light weight clothing, cotton ! Y mucho agua !

I'm deep in a cool building, and would wear my jacket if I wanted to.

BTW,:eek:fftopic:, but my F-22, F-16, and F-15 pilots take strong exception to your subscript.

:eek:fftopic: Soon we'll only have pilotless drones. Do the math, $1 million for a drone, $300 million for an aircraft, and that's the cheap ones....
