ubacs shirt

Christ I meant I wear either a tshirt, a base layer or a UBACS. I get way to hot to have more than one layer on.

Ah, I read it as "this, then this over the top"; that makes more sense.

I'm the same, when I see people with 2 or more layers under a PC in the height of the July heat I really find it strange. I've seen smocks, hoodies, beanie hats, you name it and I'm there sweating buckets in just a thin combat shirt. I get that some people just want the look or their bodies just run colder, but when you see loads of them at a game it's hard to imagine that absolutely all of them are the same in that respect.

the combat shirt is a wicker material, to take the sweat away, similar to dry fit, isn't that right?

my under t-shirt is normally the same dry fit material, infact, Nike dryfit, that's my limit to layers really, never need anymore

The central torso fabric on most combat shirts will be something thin and designed to be cool, comfortable and fast at wicking moisture. It varies a lot by brand though, cheaper ones that would be terrible to wear in real combat will have a non flame-resistant synthetic fabric that's actually better in a lot of ways for airsoft usage because it transports sweat more quickly.

Best UBACS I had was an issued flame retardant MTP one. Got it for free and it was mega comfy.

Shame I hate all things MTP/MC! (Apart from my lightweight gortex!)

Ended up running it with a thick tshirt with ubacs on top, cold in the briefing but fine once going. Jacket has arrived now so all set

I wear a ubacs & plate carrier, after a few mins of running I'm red hot. No matter how cold it is

Anyone know where does clothing for larger people?

I usually buy t-shirts n such in 4XL it's hard to find much camo in my size.
