Come vestirsi in estate con capi leggeri e sostenibili

How to dress in summer with lightweight, sustainable clothing

Summer is the season of lightness, travel and time spent outdoors. But dressing well when temperatures rise does not simply mean choosing lighter garments: above all, it means selecting natural materials that are breathable and high-quality, able to provide comfort throughout the day.

More and more people are looking for a different way to experience fashion, preferring a wardrobe made up of a few versatile, durable and sustainable garments. This is precisely the philosophy that guides Lanaioli in creating its collections.

Natural yarns make the difference

When choosing a summer garment, the fabric is the first element to consider. Natural fibres allow the skin to breathe, promote moisture dispersion and provide a pleasant feeling of freshness even on the hottest days.

Among the most appreciated materials are extrafine merino wool, cotton, linen and lightweight cashmere—fibres that combine comfort, elegance and long-lasting durability.

For this reason, Lanaioli has chosen to build its identity around natural yarns, developing collections designed to accompany those who wear them throughout the year.

Merino wool: perfect even in summer

Contrary to popular belief, merino wool is not a fibre reserved exclusively for winter.

Thanks to its thermoregulating properties, it can naturally adapt to changes in temperature, keeping the body dry and comfortable. Lanaioli's extrafine merino wool men's polo shirts are designed precisely for this purpose: to offer elegance and lightness during summer evenings, on trips or holidays in the mountains.

A versatile garment that can take you from day to evening without sacrificing comfort or style.

The short supply chain: a choice rooted in the local area

Since 2025, Lanaioli has launched an important short supply chain project for Italian merino wool, working with farmers in Lazio and Abruzzo to showcase a high-quality raw material.

Following the journey of wool from raw fibre to finished garment means ensuring greater transparency, supporting the work of Italian agricultural businesses and reducing the environmental impact associated with transport.

It is a production model that places the local area and its people at the centre, transforming each garment into an authentic expression of Made in Italy.

Regenerated yarns: sustainability focused on the future

Alongside natural fibres, Lanaioli also promotes the use of regenerated yarns, such as regenerated cashmere—a choice that gives high-quality materials a new lease of life while reducing the consumption of new resources.

Regeneration does not mean giving up quality, but enhancing what already exists through innovative and responsible processes. It is one of the fundamental principles of the circular economy applied to fashion.

A summer defined by quality

Dressing well in summer means choosing garments that can adapt to different occasions while offering comfort, lightness and elegance.

Lanaioli interprets this philosophy through sustainable knitwear made with natural yarns, Italian merino wool from a short supply chain and regenerated yarns, demonstrating that quality and sustainability can coexist in the same wardrobe.

Because true lightness does not depend solely on the weight of a fabric, but on the awareness of wearing a garment made with respect for the environment, people and the local area.
