Linen Suits

Despite its simple construction, the linen costume has always had its obvious place in each gentleman's wardrobe. People have often seen royalty and famous people take pride in their costumes. For example, Theodor Roosevelt was mentioned during his inspection of the Panama Canal 1910, when he allowed himself to be photographed in his white linen suit and Panama hat or Mark Twain, which after he started using linen costume was rarely seen elsewhere during the summer.
