Many manufactures claim "cool" fabrics and air vents,etc. to make a shirt seem cooler. What have you found to be the real deal? I have been shooting in 100% cotton and that isn't very cool nor dry.
Looking for a shirt that looks acceptible with the shirttail out and offers a cut that doesn't restrict movement.
The tempts here have been around 100 degrees with 85%+ humidity.
Need suggestions!
Thanks,
Jim

I hear ya.

I always shot in cotton tees but in locations in the country like Nationals, Claythorne Lodge, Minnesota Horse and Hunt Club, etc. they don't work too well. Humidity being the main culprit.

I went to synthetic "wicking" under armour type fabrics. It's about the best you can do.

Drape one of those blue Cool Towels ya wet in an ice chest or water cooler around your neck. They will help.

I have been using the Addias brand of wicking shirt that you can get at Academy in the long and sleeve version. A great bargain at 10 bucks
