Heat wave.....protect yourself by wearing Buccino.

During a heat wave, it is crucial to wear clothing that helps you stay cool and comfortable.

Although it may seem contradictory, wearing long-sleeved garments like our BUCCINO jackets is the best idea for dressing during the summer or a heat wave . The extra amount of fabric will provide you with protection from UV rays, which are quite harmful in the quantities we receive during the summer season. Of course, don't forget to complement with a good quality sunscreen to ensure your well-being.

Some tips when dressing;

Light and light-colored clothing :

Wear light-colored clothing (white, beige, pastel) as they reflect sunlight rather than absorb it, helping you stay cooler.
Opt for light clothing that is not heavy or dense.

Breathable fabrics :

Choose natural fabrics such as cotton and linen that allow air to circulate and absorb sweat.

Loose clothing :

Wear loose clothing that does not stick to your body, allowing for better airflow and ventilation.

Suitable accessories :

Wear a wide-brimmed hat to protect yourself from the sun and keep your head cool.
Wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from UV rays.

Appropriate footwear :

Opt for sandals or open shoes that allow your feet to ventilate.
Avoid closed shoes and shoes made of synthetic materials that can increase the sensation of heat and cause excessive sweating.

Clothing that protects the entire body :

Consider wearing long-sleeved clothing if you are going to be exposed to the sun for long periods of time. This clothing protects you from UV rays that are so damaging to your skin.

Lightweight backpacks and bags :

Carry a bottle of water with you to stay hydrated, but avoid carrying heavy backpacks that can increase your feeling of heat.

Wet clothes :

In extreme cases, lightly moisten your clothing with water to take advantage of evaporation and cool down.

By following these recommendations, you can help your body better handle high temperatures and stay more comfortable during a heat wave.
