Mens' Guide to Summer Trouser Fabrics (Stay Cool, Feel Comfortable & Look Great!)

Just ordered 3 pair of shorts from Divij and I can't wait to get them! Three shorts, three shirts, one jacket!

I live in Arizona so this is practically year round lol

but the sun burns your skin

Did you have those trousers line ?

I sweat alot. So as much as it looks good...it doesn't work for me sadly

Hi, while i was looking the video i noticed the beautiful brown/black Oxford behind you, ( near to the red ones) can you please tell me what brand are they? I'm really in love with those

While what you wear seems to be timeless, I just can’t get over your shorts. The length just seems so awkward looking.

Odd question but how do you typically style those very red oxfords on the rack next to the black ones? They seem much more red than the average oxblood shoe.

Any chance on suggestions/a video for the 'bigger' kind of guy? I'm not gigantic, but fairly tall and stocky with a bit more in the engine room (gut) and as we get to Australian summer, I heat up like a roast over a fire! My usual work attire are polo shirts that are sweat proof sports material that doesn't show up sweat marks. Would be nice to class up my every day work attire a bit. Thanks and love your videos! Cheers.

I love seersucker during the summer.

As always, very informative and offering great insight to the culture and style of classic menswear.

So no more pants with the polyester blend..?.. I still have a lot to learn now that I bought three pairs of AE's for work.

Onto other clothing; I am reaching out to a local tailer to reduce the arms diameter on my Brooks Brothers dress shirts from DXL since they are baggy.

Thanks for teaching us about class and proper dress Kirby; it makes a big difference in how I view all men's attire.

Still need to know what shoe polish to use on AE carbon strands...Grey Saphir? Now I am thinking dark brown??

Are pleats making a comeback? Some years ago, pleats were considered a no-no and flat front were the rage. I have big quads and while I like the look of flat front, I'm thinking of trying pleats.

Finally, some shorts! Kudos. Great for the summer. Do you have any patterned shorts? What is your take on shirt sleeved, polo-type shirts for the summer and hot climates?

I am trying to find my dads old bally oxblood suit shoes what can i do ?

Watching these vids are a constant increase in menswear education in so many ways, especially with special fabrics. Every single one the fabrics much from Europe mentioned in the first 6 mins the video I’ve never heard of or even knew what they were. It makes such a difference in buying trousers of nice drape being of really nice and lightweight fabrics for the season. Knowledge is so important in making good purchasing choices.

The plural of pair is pairs.

Thank you, clear and informative. Are you aware of trousers that blend cotton and linen? I find this blend very appropriate for polos shirts in summer.

The thumbnail of this video should have said "stay cool while being hot". You won't change my mind

Or you could just use shorts and t-shirt for much cheaper price and more comfortable

Don’t forget bamboo, Kirby. There are some really good cloths now appearing in that fibre.

Are the side tabs just an aesthetic addition with the trousers, given that they are cut for braces?

Kirby I have a question. I can see that you have chosen a different pocket style in the trousers than people would normally wear. What is that style called? Thank you for answering me😊

I have summer linen suits which I've worn every day this summer so far through heat up to 46 degrees Celsius and 96% humidity. You can look good into weather. A suitable hat, footwear and avoiding heavy food will help you stay cool while staying stylish.

Looking sharp as always Kirby!

Allways informative and never Arrogant. Thankyou Kirby

Dear Kirby,
Could you please explain what difference it makes when one goes for forward facing pleats and backward facing pleats?
Greetings from Germany

i thought i was done buying trousers for the forseeable and then you sell me on linen pants with braces

I 100% endorse Kirby's summer suggestions, they are nothing short of 'sharp' ! Well done. I could add that I also enjoy my DB cream dupioni silk suit however it may not be as cool as other weaves but none the less a 'drop dead' stylish option.

Hey Kirby, what Jazz track is that?

What kind of shoes would you wear with these shorts? Limited to only loafers, espadrilles, with no-show socks?

While I love a Kirby video, this seems a bit late considering summer is about to end

Hey Kirby, have you ever considered cargo dress pants?
4 front flap pockets!

Your tie seems a bit long.

Never knew some people wear suits during summer. Unless it's silky!😂

Can you reply to DMS please , great video as always ⚛️

No cotton Seersucker?💙🤍

One thing that really caught my eye in the video was the pair of emerald green suade shoes

Well. I'm first. Nice video man.

This video came right on time. Great. 👍
