Summer style

Summer brings warm weather and a challenge to stay cool. You want your clothes to be airy and breathable: this is not the time for skin-tight pants. Even if your pants are roomy, the problem can be at the waist – when you tighten a belt around your waist. That’s exactly where braces are perfect for achieving summer coolness – in both meanings of the word! Braces suspend your pants at the waistline, not constrain it. This allows the waistline to be roomier and allow air to flow around your torso. 

While you may want to wear t-shirt and shorts all the time, this may not be suitable for all occasions. Take for example a wedding. It’s generally not appropriate to wear shorts, so a man must wear pants. However, he can be stylish and functional by wearing slightly roomier, high-waisted pants, supported by braces. Braces add a formal touch to your outfit and allow you to express your personality.

Or in a corporate environment. It is generally not appropriate to wear shorts to the office, so pants are necessary for men or women. Here again, you can be stylish and functional by wearing slightly roomier, high-waisted pants, supported by braces. Braces add a sophisticated touch and express your personality. This style looks great on both men and women.

Pants that allow air to flow around the torso will provide more a comfortable and cooler disposition. This can only be achieved if the pants are roomier and that can only be achieved with the help of braces. It’s a win-win, braces complement the outfit and provide air movement - style and function at the same time!

The goal is roominess rather than bagginess. This can be a fine line - be careful not to go overboard. Generally it’s one size up from your normal size.

Are you heading to a wedding or the office this summer? Wear braces for comfort and style. I’d love to hear your experience and what people’s comments were on your style.
