Do you think it would be too hot to wear as sun protection during motorcycle rides? (300+ miles , 90+ degrees)

I don't think you would have a problem. I bought this in black and I just spent last Sunday all day at the beach in Miami weather (over 90 degrees), mostly outside walking and sunbathing, and I did not feel hot. If you get it in a color other than black and with the wind factor, I don't any problem wearing this for sun protection.

@HellCat, I'm not sure how comfortable you would be on a 300 plus mile ride because these are extremely form-fitting and fairly tight. I have one in black and it works great when I'm in the water but for hiking or other outdoor activities I would get a lighter color and possible size up so you have more "breathing" room. The sun protection is great, I'm very fair and haven't had a problem in that area. It's great for camping, swimming, diving, keeping bugs at bay but mine does retain some heat. These also dry fairly quick and are easy to clean. Hope this helps, have fun on your ride.

I found the material to be quite breathable. I wore it all the time in Hawaii and I did not find it too hot because it was breathable. I hope this helps. Have a great motorcycle adventure!

For motorcycle Rides I think they will work well because you are moving and it will keep you cool, I have used this at the beach during a windy day and it works great.. I love this shirt I get complements every whenever I wear it...

I wore them out to Costa Rica and Nicaragua just recently. It was blazing hot out there and my bottoms did get pretty hot still. I only wore them as shorts of course; however, I do feel they were fine for morning and early afternoons. During the rest of the day I was on the beach so I can't say much for the really hot hours. I do feel while in shade when I did wear them (buses, etc to carry my items) I was "okay". Then again, it was insanely hot out. Normally if I wore these in the states on a hot day, I would feel perfectly fine. Crowded areas with no air flow - not so great if you're wearing them as pants. I would still HIGHLY recommend buying a pair. These are fantastic since they're pants and shorts. Really good for nights when the bugs come out or for the airplane when it gets pretty chilly (and when you get off at your final hot destination just unzip them and change them to shorts). Hope this helps you!

Yes, it is hot, even with the cover that it came with. I find myself tossing a turning at night because I overheat on the "bottom side."

It's a little hot... but it works fine. I wear XL and this one fits too big. Hope this helps.

I wear mine to groom my horse. I'm in the barn not in the sun. I don't feel too hot in them and I live in Florida.

Not completely so I would definitely still use sunscreen/sun hat for protection.

This is only my opinion. It's a Great Product when it comes to heat. As to how and where you want to wear it, just improvise to your personal comfort level. Hope this comment helped a little. Good luck with the settings.... it can get very hot without a towel or...

I understand your concern in regards to getting hot, but I believe you should be fine with these. I ran a half marathon in these and never got over-heated.

I use it for golfing. It is excellent forblocking the wind. I use it from about 32 degrees to low 50s. Any higher and I think you might get too warm.

Kind of depends on your head size and how much hair you got... but I wear a Large in this helmet, and I haven't worn a ProFit hat in a while, but I wear a L/XL FlexFit baseball cap. The Large helmet fits perfectly and I never have issues with overheating, though I wouldn't recommend pedaling uphill with this on. Hope that helps!

I would ask my motorcycle manufacturer. I like to let my bike/engine cool off in this hot weather.

I didn't find the bag to be too hot. We overnighted at just above an 8,500ft summit in Southern California with windy conditions and it kept me warm. It's light weight material allows for good night sleep in most conditions. It should be comfortable to use in both situations.

Yes. I would highly recommend this product, but buy a color other than black. It's too hot.

I wear it when playing golf. It never got too hot or sweaty while playing ( about 3 hrs on). But we did have a cool summer. As far as sleeping with it on, I do not think it is a good idea. Too long a time to have it on. I wear it only when I do an activity that hurts my elbow.

I've never tried that cos I don't ride a motorbike but it's not designed for that cos its quite thick and not like the thin cotton or lycra balaclavas that can go under a helmet. Maybe it would add a little padding but as I said, I have never tried.

I think it would depend at least partly upon how long you stay out in the sun. My goal is never to tan or burn, which basically means not much time in the sun, at least in the summertime.

well, the sun does not appear to be an issue; it gets to 100 degrees here pretty regularly but these are mesh so they dont really hold the heat; not a problem
