The two I have are PolyEster, though I'd prefer the Rayon. picked up a few more shirts this weekend two Cotton and one Rayon. We'll see how they work out!Wildscar wrote: Nope they are 100% Raytheon. I have never heard of the stuff but they breath better than anything I have in my closet right now. They are not the flashy bright color Hawiian shirts like you might then. They have greys and blacks and a couple blues that looks really good as my wife tells me.

I have a big collection of Walmart Chinese Hawaiian shirts. $7.50-$8 each is a dang good price. Plus I like to find the ugliest ones I can.Wildscar wrote:mr.72 wrote:Wildscar wrote:Go invest a few under armor shirts. They have some now that are not skin tight. I picked up a couple and ever since I have heats has been noting.I even used the cheapie ones from Wal-Mart for like 8 bucks a piece.
Of course I don't agree about paying for the Under Armor brand name, it is wildly overpriced.
But the $8 wicking polyester tanks from Wal Mart are great undershirts year round and will keep you cool. If you really want to stay cool then throw away all of your cotton shirts and get technical wicking fabrics instead. They make some that feel like cotton but are way cooler in the summer and work better in the winter too.
however I don't think this will fix the "this gun feels like a brick" problem, which sounds like a weight issue to me ???
And while you at Wal-Mart checking out the Under armor shirts take a look at their Hawaiian Shirts. I picked up a few of those. They are thin enough to breath real good. I will have to look to night to see what they are made out of but that shirt with an under armor shirt I spoke of was like wearing one shirt. I was still able to keep the Beretta covers and not die from heat exhaustion.

Nothing has changed for me other than shorts.
I just tuck the pistol in my belt and drop the shirt over it.
