I wear linen, hemp, flax, and bamboo. However, I have one shirt that is 85% cotton and 15% linen -- can't get it to wrinkle. As summer takes hold, I will wear more linen guayaberas; they have true tropical character. Sweat seems to set the wrinkles as if they were ironed in.

Have you noticed that even after wearing a bamboo shirt for several weeks, there's no sweat odor? I wish the bamboo folks would make guayaberas.
