This is in response to ED question under the Calendar Thread with respect to pants and jacket.

I wore shorts and technical tee. I couldn't bring myself to wear a haz-mat style outfit. I had no problems with heat management. Will wear the same get-up this year.

I wore an "Eco-mesh" shirt from RailRiders. Comfortable, lightweight, and well ventilated. On the bottom, I wore shorts and 50 SPF sunscreen.
I plan to wear the same next time.

For crewing, I LOVED my Rail Riders shirt, and also a cap with detachable drape for neck coverage.

When I looked that shirt up on their website today, I noticed that the white one is not currently available. I'm not sure if they're just out of them, or if it has been discontinued in that color.
