Here we see an American priest who works in the Vatican, Msgr. Calkins. He's a mariologist and both he and Msgr. Perle, for twenty years now, have been working for the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei.
Most clergy who work in the Vatican today just wear what the Italians call "clergyman" or what others might call "tenue de ville" (the black business suit with clerical vest, etc.). To their credit, these two monsignori, always looking sharp, wear the soutane to and from the office. People notice this and it counts for a lot. Many thanks for this witness.

Hello uncle John I'm at danda.

Aren't they harrased by the other vatican clerics or by their bosses for wearing the cassock? This is a matter of politics.
The panama hat is keeping him cool in every sense!
That looks like a nice summer wool blend or cotton cassock, so I'm sure it's not too bad.
Wear shorts and high socks and its cool in the heat.
The cassock or habit always makes a strong impression on faithful and non-believers alike. Unfortunately, that statement is not necssarily a religious or moral one. Would that the best priests were the ones to wear the cassock.
Psg vestments is a best place to get your Roman cassock. Because they specialise in making it as per your requirements and suggestion with free customization. If you ask them a cassock to wear on summer, they will make it for you with special fabric that suits on summer
