    We are in the south so its stressful, also he love music festivals and who are we to say “no”. So we have to pack out ice, plenty of water, tried to get him to wear one of those cold vest (absolutely won’t). Since he won’t wear it I started to and they are awesome! Find shady area’s which so is everyone else…

    But he’s a bro, that so what you do.

      Genuinely probably easier to manage when its just always one temp extreme versus having to keep track of major weather changes and how that plus activity impacts and all.

      At least with warm you can just assume its too hot. And probably be right.

      I mean, in winter, overheating is easy if you don’t plan in layers and take them off according to the outside temp and how it makes you personally feel. And if you live in a place with winter you have to keep track of so many temps through the year and whether or not a body can manage them… more temperate means less caution for extremes.

      I wear shorts when its above 40, as long as that happens between December and July. When it happens in August to December, its so cold because my blood hasn’t thickened, so i don’t.

        Got your msg, going to watch it asap. I’ll hit you back in DMs. Thank you for taking the time to post this, the little I have watched so far is that this is a game changer to the traditional cold vests. Definitely something I want to play around with as I think I have another off label use for this material. I’ll get me detailed after watching the video and doing some research.
