The Pick: The linen shirt to see you through summer

Inspired by the energy and life emanating from the beaches of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, Frescobol Carioca are a lifestyle brand intent on bringing the country’s specific energy to everyone around the world. Starting with swim shorts and beautiful beach bats designed specifically for playing Frescobol, in more recent years, the brand have expanded its offerings and have become a fully fledged lifestyle and clothing brand. This linen shirt is one such example from their ever expanding range.

Made from only the finest Italian linen and in this summer-ready shade of blue, the shirt is cut with a looser but still tailored fit. It’s nothing if not versatile, light enough to be worn over a pair of tailored swim shorts to the beach during the day, but still smart enough that you could easily swap the swim shorts for a pair of slim fitting chinos in the evening to go out for dinner. If you’re only going to buy one linen shirt this summer, gentlemen, we suggest it is this one.
