There are few red-hot looks that Irish men can claim to absolutely own in the summer months. Of course, we as a nation rock flowery Penney’s shorts better than anyone else, and black socks with GAA shorts will never go out of fashion here. But it’s the farmer’s tan that’s truly on trend for summer ’16. It’s the kind of stylish look that screams “I’ve been outside”. A farmer’s tan also lets everyone know what kind of cutting-edge outfit you had on the previous day. The beauty of the farmer’s tan is that everyone truly believes it will soon turn to a lovely, real tan.

Here's why a farmer's tan is the hottest look this summer
A tan or sunburn that occurs only on the neck and arms of a person, and which results from wearing a T-shirt during prolonged sun exposure, creating a red area clearly demarcated from the pale skin of the chest and upper arms that remained covered. Farmers get this because they do a lot of labour out in the sun whilst wearing a shirt.
