Anyone use Adidas ClimaCool clothing (not shoes)?

Question: Anyone use Adidas ClimaCool clothing (not shoes)?


Answer:I live in South Florida, with 90+ degree heat AND 90+ percent humidity, for 8+ months most years. I used Adidas clima-cool for a while. Really doesn't make much difference. All of the 'wicking' fabrics seem to work about the same. I prefer the ones that have the fewest hard/rubbing/irritate stitched seams. The fabrics are all about the same.

I have found that a much more effective method of shedding heat, and avoiding over-heating, is just to plan my route. I note when different people run their irrigation systems. Then, I plan my route on hot, humid days to maximize the number of lawn sprinklers that I can run through. Cold water from a sprinkler provides much more effective cooling than any amount of sweat on any fancy fabric.
