Is this vest good for hot weather?

Yes. Linen and rayon breathe well and the elastane keeps it from feeling stiff. It is partly lined, so it is warmer than an unlined linen vest.

How does it compare with a 100% linen vest?

The blend wrinkles less and has more give, but it drapes softer and looks less crisp. Pure linen reads more structured and vintage.

What sizes does it come in?

It runs from XS through XXXL. Universal Standard sizes differ from many brands, so check the size chart before ordering.

How should I care for it?

Machine wash and line dry. Skip the dryer to protect the linen and keep the cropped length from shrinking.

Can I wear it to work?

Yes, over a tee or blouse with trousers. The welt pockets and partial lining make it look more finished than a plain linen top.
