Extended shirt cut straight with lightly structured shoulders and piped edges. The longer hem shields hips and upper thigh while vents allow movement. Front placket secures with small buttons to avoid weight. Fabric choices favour light cottons that dry quickly. Works as a single layer in heat or as a top over pyjama trousers. In French Guiana the extra length guarded skin during daily tasks while allowing constant air passage across the body.
Daily activity in rainforest terrain required caution. Snakes could be concealed in leaf litter; large spiders and scorpions were frequent around dwellings. Predators such as jaguars sometimes moved near clearings, and rivers hosted caimans. Longer shirt hems, closed cuffs, and fabrics with airflow offered practical mitigation while remaining compatible with equatorial heat.
