Korean men’s summer outfits should be stylish and comfortable as temperatures soar and the sun shines brightly. From breezy linen shorts and shirts to colorful swim trunks, there are endless possibilities for creating the perfect summer look. These Korean men’s fashion-for-summer ideas can help you stay cool and stylish during the hot summer months, whether going to the beach, a backyard party, a hike, a day trip, or whatever fun summer activity you like! Dojeon team member, Lewis, gives you some fashionable tips and tricks to keep you cool while looking to stand out during the summertime!
A summer outfit is all about comfort, style, and versatility, and with these combinations, men can quickly achieve the right look for any casual or formal summer event. Investing in a few key pieces of clothing from quality retailers can help men build a summer wardrobe that will last for years and can be mixed and matched for any occasion.
Ultimately, it’s all about being confident and comfortable while enjoying the summer months in style. Baggy T-shirts and wide-stretched jeans/shorts are a good idea this time of year. Many high street stores such as SPAO, TOP TEN, H&M, and other stores are currently selling a wide variety of trendy outfits.
Lightweight
Korean men’s fashion for summer is all about staying relaxed and comfortable. That’s why lightweight and breathable fabrics like cotton, linen, and any lightweight fabric are highly recommended. These fabrics allow air to circulate freely, which prevents sweating, and boy, is this a good idea. TOP TEN has a good variety of good-priced t-shirts, shirts, and shorts, to help with this, and I can honestly say that they work well.
Oversized
Oversized clothing has been a popular trend in Korean fashion for a while now. This summer, the trend continues with oversized t-shirts, shirts, and shorts. These loose-fitting clothes are perfect for hot and humid weather, allowing air to circulate freely. These are now my go-to clothes during the summer and I have to say I sweat less, they are a lifesaver!!
Summer Shorts
Choose lightweight, breathable shorts to keep you cool and dry on hot days. Comfort is king. You don’t want your legs to look bulky from your shorts. Men’s shorts that are the proper length and fit are also essential for an effortless, pleasing look. Wear sweats and gym shorts if you want a looser fit; make sure they aren’t too long or baggy. A slim or tailored fit in jeans and chino shorts looks stylish for a casual look.
Wide Legged
Not into wearing shorts? Wide-legged pants are also comfortable and stylish, making them perfect for any season. Korean men like to pair them with plain t-shirts or dress them in printed shirts. These pants come in different materials and colors; pick the one that best suits you. There are thick, wide-leg pants made of thin materials that will not make you hot even if you wear them in the summer.
Bucket Hats
Bucket hats are back in style this summer, and Korean men love them! These hats give your clothing a refined touch while offering enough protection from the sun. They come in various colors and prints and can be paired with almost any outfit!
For me, the baggy clothes and the wide breathable shorts are for sure a lifesaver, but I think I will pass on the bucket hats for now.
