Linen is the ultimate warm-weather fabric. Made from the flax plant, it is lightweight and exceptionally breathable, providing a natural, airy feel. Linen shorts have a distinct, relaxed look that's perfect for a laid-back, yet stylish vibe. They dry very quickly, making them great for humid climates. The main drawback is that linen wrinkles very easily, which is part of its relaxed charm but might require more ironing.
