Guayaberas are a popular Men's Shirt in South America, Central America and the Caribbean. The name "Guayabera" some believe it may have originated from a very old legend that speaks of a poor seamstress who would sew large pockets into the front of her husband's shirts to enable him to carry home as many guavas (guayabas) as possible back from the fields. The Guayabera today is a popular fixture at beach weddings!
