Should I order the sweat liner? It appears to have a moisture resistant barrier.

I didn't know they had one! I think I may order one myself, now that I know.

Yes you should. I always use it and wash it afterwards by hand, let it hand dry and its ready overnight. This will help maintain your biggest investment, the vest, in better conditions.

We have tried both the black one and denim. They both have material that helps with no sweat. You can purchase different covers.

Absolutely, yes. It feels like 100% cotton, so you'll need a plastic water-repellant layer in there. I have had mine for over a year now using the plastic liner and it works great-- no sticking together or molding.

No! I go to an exercise class where I really sweat. This product is very good! It will come off on a pillow case at night, I noticed, but I've been caught in the rain and sweated during exercise, and it stays put. I think you'll like to cover thinning spots. I've been using it for a few years now and wouldn't go without it!

I second UCLA's response. From it's construction, I definitely don't think it's waterproof, but I haven't had a problem with sweat, even during hour long runs in 85 degree weather.

i did 50mins on my exercise bike, sweat was trapped underneath.. it's quite funny, i could see a bubble of water(sweat) so i think if the seal is good, you should be ok swimming

I have not used the PUL I bought yet but it was to be used to line handmade sanitary pads so NO moisture should get through. I think this would be too hot and sweaty for a shirt lining unless it had a "breathable" fabric lining to use next to the skin like cotton flannel, etc.

Yes. I have been using it on a daily basis at the gym as well as running.It does not accumulate any moisture.

Hey man. I've used it several times, longest run was 15k (around 7-8 miles). Even though it does not specifically states it is sweat resistant (which it should anyways), it has kept my iPhone 5s completely dry, and I live on Costa Rica which might not be that hot in San Jose (17-28 celcius) but it is humid. Even with that, it has kept my phone dry and in perfect condition. Hope this helps.

I bought one to cover a BMW 123i and had more than plenty of room left over. No moisture under cover but not sure about the keeping out heat although it should help. I have a garage now and do not use it.

It is thin. Its about NOT slipping when you're pouring sweat on the mat. Same company makes a thick one. Look on their site. An LuLuLemon makes a think one.

I was wondering if it was breathable bc I was looking to put it over my waterproof mattress. We sweat with only the waterproof one so I was looking for a cotton breathable barrier. I realize this is not an answer to her question but I wondered if the person who mentioned they used it over their vinyl one had any comments.

Some sweat seeps through but I'd guess 90% is trapped. I think it would be great outside in the summer working. I'm also bald and jog outside and it's great

This product is a very good quality underlayment, especially for the price. However, not sure about how effective it is as a moisture barrier. I live in a very dry climate, so it would not be apparent one way or the other.

Yes, its not 100% sweat proof but I ran when I run around 12 miles in the heat there was a little sweat on the phone at the end of my run and nothing significant, but way better than the neoprene. I would recommend it if you're trying to protect your phone. I use it every time I run and sweat wise it does its job.

Its not water proof, but i haven't had any problems with sweat. I've used it for a couple of long runs(10-15 miles) and no problems.

Yes! Fits perfectly. I sweat a TON and I haven't had any problems with mine either. I got the impression from a lot of the reviews that this would be an issue, but it isn't. I would buy this again.
