i usually run shirtless during the warmer/hotter weather and since it's getting way hot, is a shirt recommended while wearing these?

Not necessary. The belt sits comfortably around the hip. Tighten the belt according to your fit and it should stay put. It works for me with running shorts and biking tights.

I wear it around my waist were it would be on my waist band if i had no shirt, some people wear it a bit higher, i do not recommend wearing it where it is only on skin, there always is slight movement while running aka chaffing!

They breath a little to well for weather below 60. Below 40 and you wear them under your uniform pants ;-). But Yes you could wear them outside inthe winter. They do not repel water and It would be a poor choice, but you migth be one of those people who run hot.

Fabric is breathable and quick dry, so better than cotton in my opinion and I've worn them in hot dry climates. Would just go with lighter colors to stay cooler.

No, your arms will always feel cool. I love them because I live in Atlanta. I usually wear them consistently into November and warm days in December. The next few days will be warm for February and I plan to wear them on my next runs.

I typically wear cotton, but use these for traveling when I'll be doing a lot of outdoor activities like hiking, biking, etc. I wore both cotton & these in Costa Rica & these were far superior in wicking & drying after washing. My cotton ones were all sweaty & stuck to me. I'd guess these would prevent the yeasty beasties if you're sweating & continue wearing them more so than cotton.

I only wore it around the pool in Palm Springs. It's not form fitting, at least the size I got for myself but I don't like them to fit that way...but no issues with the shirt getting hot.Hope that helps. Ps. lots of compliments on the "look" of the shirt.

You could use them over a pair of thermals; they do seem to offer a bit of wind resistance/repellency. If you're going to do this maybe get one waist size up; they do not run small and there is room in the legs but the waist only stretches so much and thermals often go higher up the abdomen. Oh, and there is enough room around the cuff for a good-sized boot. Cheers!

It seems to breathe really well, but I live up in the Sierra Nevada and it's always dry, even when it's hot. The sleeves are pretty loose. They come down to the middle of my wrist or so. But I think I've got the sleeves figured out. They've got a velcro tab, and can be worn up really easily. Like you just slide them up above your elbow and pin the velcro. It's a different fit. Not like a regular Under Armour long sleeve for running. Everything works, but the whole combo takes a little getting used to. Hope this helps.

That I can't answer. I don't wear them while exercising because:A) I don't exercise :)B) I don't want to get them sweatyBut I don't see why they wouldn't once you get the right tips on them.

Not particularly, I hardly notice then. When it's really hot I wear these plus another pair without thumb holes for my forearm, then I can wear a tshirt instead of my leathers.

No. If you run in 85-95F you will be hot. This is a sock like material and may not be as hot as those plastic ones. I don't run, so I can't give a better answer.

I recently purchased these for my husband while he goes running. He loves them, and he hasn't had one problem with them quitting on him or anything because they got sweaty.

I think this would depend on where on your waist you would wear the belt. I never wear mine above the shirt. It's usually 1/2 over my shorts and 1/2 on my waist. I don't foresee an issue of chaffing if you were doing anything less than 1 hour. If you were running couple of hours wearing it on bare skin, it could potentially bother you. Personal preference.

It will keep you warmer than going bare. I do work out in a warm pool but it is below body temp. The surrounding air is cold. This keeps my arms and shoulders from getting cold. Order the size you wear and this shirt is longer. It is supposed to fit tight. The zipper up the front helps with getting in and out of it.

Yes, the only thing is going to keep you cool like A/C. But, they keep the sun off your arms and by doing this it helps a lot to keep you cooler. More so then nothing. I still use sun block on my arms before I put them on.

I haven't worn these outside while running in the winter. I have worn them in the winter (because I ran out of regular socks) for regular day activities and my feet get pretty cold if I'm outside.

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...
