Spanish men wear sandals or dress shoes without socks. They wear dress shirts and linen pants with a belt. The older men wear four pocket shirts and pastel colors.

Do not take a lot of clothing with you to Spain. You will feel more comfortable and more properly dressed if you buy some outfits from Spain.
Sizes will be different, so do not be surprised if you go from a medium to an extra large.
