i was at a wedding in mexico last spring and boy did i feel out of place without a guayabera. so, i returned home and began an exhaustive internets search for one that would fit me.  couldn't find one for tall people.

i really wanted one of the authentics with the four mango pockets on the front.  elite.

oh well.

nope, were not talking sweetbreads here bro.

but i was in the presence of guayabera elites. one 4 pocket guy and one guy had his hand made in venezuala.  another got his in some small village outside of Tijuana.   anywho.  i'm not abnormally tall.  problem is with fat people, they're too big.

hand made in venezuala? wow. would love to meet up and swap guayabera stories over a couple of dark and stormy's w/ that guy.

i almost bought one in malecon area of pv but had a hard time making up my mind on which one i wanted. kid in a candy store. eventually didn't get any of them. oh well, you know what they say...a bad day of guayabera shopping is better than a good day at the office.  ;)

Hmmmm, how important is it that it be 100% linen?  Is white the elite color in this sort of thing?  Seems like it may be.

my guess is that the most elite is a four pocket, 100% linen,  slightly tan or off white shirt. .







i personally like the whites better and don't mind a two pocket or even no pocket guayabera type shirt.

RD knows his guayabera.
uber elites wear 4 pocket linen, in light blue or white, very important to have the vertical embroidery and front/back tail as well. 

would prefer to have flat bottom and not curved, but that's just an imo.

yeah flat bottom is the elite. lets people know you mean business and are very serious about guayaberas and the wearing of guayaberas.

Flat bottoms are key key key.

light blues are also very elite.

I also have some super secret polyester ones from the 70's.  Very wide lapels.
