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 would say that if you take it off for a little while around every 20 minutes of use and let your arms cool down, it should not be a problem. With that said, it is probably more dependent on whether or not you are using it in an air conditioned area, or the temperature in the location you are in. I personally have not found heat to be of any real issue while wearing them.

I would say no. I wore them motorcycling at +40°F 55mph, the wind felt like it was going right through them. Glad I tested them out before it really gets cold, I need to find a nice pair so I can keep cycling until it snows.

It is not too hot. Protection from sun is my priority. I will wear it at the golf course in Fort Myers.

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

I don't know for sure, but I would say 'no'. I am bald, and can still get sunburned on my scalp even wearing the hat if I don't also use sunscreen.

Not Bad at all!! You can use a couple of products from Turtle wax or leather conditioner from Mother brand and that should help it in protecting it from hot sunny weather up to rain.

I am honestly unsure. I do not want to give you any wrong information. Its a pretty thick dressing so I would assume you would be ok from the sun if you wore this. Thank you.

William, I think a tradional surf or diving wetsuit would be too hot for out-of-water sport activities. They are incredible insulators, so I would be concerned about overheating or dehydration. I wear my suit half way (to the waist) when I goto the beach. The drive is only 15 minutes, but in that short time of inactivity I'm starting to get very warm. Also, there is the chafing factor. Tradional surf wetsuits will chaf surfers in high friction areas such as the armpits and neck. I can only imagine the chafing you'd get if you ran in one! If you still wish to wear a wetsuit in your workouts, my recommendation would be to look at the lighter weight wetsuits that triathletes use.

don't know about that! I wear mine for covering my ears, using it as a headband and as extra warmth around my neck so I'm not using it for sun protection

probably, I wear it in the early mornings on the boat then I change to a summer weight buff for sun protection, but its sensational in the cool 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.

Not really, I wore mine many days when it was hot and it worked great to absorb sweat, keep my helmet dry and snug.

I wouldn't think so, but if you are wearing them in the desert at the Burning man event. I would think they would be awfully hot. The vents allow the heat to escape, but, still, you will probably be drenched with sweat? My best guess...

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.

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 think sun protection shouldn't be a problem as long as you take precautions to prevent the interior from overheating. Ie leave the windows open a small gap.personally I'd still park it in a spot where you have shade during a few hours of the day . But back to the cover, its absolutely fantastic, very well made.
