Description

Stacked vertical pleats march down the placket of this cotton-blend retro guayabera, framed by clean lines and a relaxed short-sleeve cut. Two flap chest pockets, signature square buttons trimmed in white, and a heritage 2-pocket retro silhouette give this 50/50 cotton and Dacron shirt a tailored island feel. Available in three resort-ready colors.

Why You'll Love It

• Wrinkle-resistant blend — the 50/50 cotton and Dacron weave bounces back from carry-on bags and humid afternoons.
• Retro alforzas pleating stacks narrow vertical pleats along the placket for a vintage guayamisa silhouette.
• Two flap chest pockets with square button closures hold sunglasses, a phone, or a folded receipt.
• Signature square buttons trimmed in white add a tailored finishing touch you'll notice up close.
• Short-sleeve cut with finished cuff edges runs cool through summer weddings, brunch patios, and beach evenings.

Fabric & Construction

Built from a balanced 50% cotton, 50% Dacron polyester blend, this short-sleeve guayabera feels soft against the skin and dries quickly after a humid afternoon. The fabric holds a crisp line through the placket and pleats while resisting wrinkles, so it travels well between flights, hotel closets, and dinner reservations.

Construction follows the classic 2-pocket retro guayamisa template. Narrow vertical alforzas pleats stack tightly along both sides of the front placket and continue across the back yoke for visual symmetry. Two squared chest pockets sit at the chest with single-button flap closures, and the signature square buttons are trimmed in crisp white for contrast. A point collar, full front placket, and finished short-sleeve cuffs complete a shirt designed to dress up or down.

How to Style It

• Pair with white linen pants and brown leather loafers for a beach wedding or rehearsal dinner.
• Style it untucked over dark denim for poolside lunches and rooftop cocktails.
• Tuck into khaki chinos with a woven belt and boat shoes for a polished daytime look.

Fit & Care

Cut to a classic, slightly relaxed guayabera silhouette through the chest and waist with room to move comfortably untucked. Most customers find it true to size; size up if you prefer extra room or plan to layer a tee underneath.

• Machine wash cold with like colors, gentle cycle.
• Tumble dry low or hang dry to preserve the pleats.
• Touch up with a warm iron if needed; the blend releases creases quickly.
