What type of clothes should we wear in summer and why?

In summer, wear light-coloured, loose-fitting cotton clothes.

• Light colours: Reflect sunlight rather than absorbing it dark colours absorb more heat.
• Cotton: Absorbs and evaporates sweat, cooling the body.
• Loose fit: Allows air circulation and convection cooling.
• Thin fabric: Less insulation, more heat loss to environment.

Synthetic fabrics (nylon, polyester) trap heat and don't absorb sweat well.

Summary: Light-coloured, loose cotton clothes are ideal for summer because they reflect sunlight, absorb sweat, and allow air circulation.
