The guayabera shirt is distinguished by
several details: either two or four patch
pockets and two vertical rows of alforzas (fine,
tiny pleats, usually 10, sewn closely together)
running along the front and back of the shirt.
The pockets are separately detailed with
identical, properly aligned alforzas.
•
The top of each pocket is usually adorned
with a matching shirt button, as are the
bottoms of the alforz as pleats.
•
Vertical rows of adjusting buttons are often
seen, one on each side, at the bottom hem.
While most versions of the design have no
placket covering the buttons, a few newer
designs do.
•
The bottom of many shirts has slits on either
side, and these include adjusting buttons. The
bottom has a straight hem, thus it is not
tucked into the trousers.[
