Sorry for the delay.  Actually the one you want is the HeatGear TNP LongSleeve.  The whites I got have grey logos on the front breast, and that site on Bass Pro shows black, which are the lower versions I think?

Also, yes they do run very large, so if you take an XL, get a Large and it'll be perfect.

Like a so?

Not sure what brand mine is......I'll check when I get home tonight.  But it has pockets which were great for filling with ice when Terrie, me, Ernie, Jon and Andy were all riding Hwy. 50 across Utah and Nevada in 113F temps. :2vrolijk_21:  Went into the Gatorade barrel and dunked the cool vest then filled the pockets with ice.  I swear they were still completly dry twenty minutes later but at least it allowed us to keep moving on to the next stop.

We have the Classic cooling vest from Silver Eagle Outfitters.  At the time only black was available but now I see they have silver.  They have other clothing items for hot weather riding........  http://www.silvereagleoutfitters.com/

Yup!

Since they only had the White in Small I got this one in white instead. Hope it works!

Harley has a line of button up UV Summer shirts. They appear to me to be the same as Columbia brand but with Harley added graphics, branding. I have one and it is good shirt. I also have a solumbra shirt, nice shirt but the Underarmor ones from any sporting goods stores is about $20 less and to me seems to do the same job. I also wear a Vanson Vent Max summer jacket that I like, Made of a better grade of mesh than the TourMaster, Harley etc, larger holes but much tougher, no collar which I like, just banded around the base of the neck. It also has CE Armor in shoulders and elbows that is backed up by leather and a back protector that while not CE is there and upgradeable to CE if you choose. Buy direct from Vanson. Also has a dropped tail without the mesh to protect the lower back, coolest jacket I have ever worn. I always wear coat, gloves, boots etc. and I live in sunny Florida and ride almost everyday and the Underarmor long sleeve white with a Vanson Vent Max is the coolest deal I can find.

Rob, you have a Gander Mountain @ the 350 MM, they have the UnderArmor stuff, I bought a couple pair of winter long underware in there off clearance table recently for 50% off. Also Underarmor has a outlet in Orlando at a couple of the discount malls as well as Ellenton. Either place is a good ride for you.

Or just order it online from Under Armour. They have a popup with free hsipping, and no tax, so that's a pretty good deal.

My best friend from Denver got a pair and said they are incredible. Says they are like air conditioners for the feet. Gonna check them out. They even come in a nice selection of colors. Red and black being the fastest!

If you want breathable/drainable panels, why not just get some jungle boots?  Cheaper &  afford more 'protection'. (but maybe not as stylish)  har.   spyder
