Looking for suggestions for the track. I was thinking under armour heat gear compression tee and shorts.

Get the long sleeve and long pant versions, works better.

I've got UA shirts and long bicycling tights.

There's also purpose-made one piece garments.

Really. So july temps at the track and get long UA? Ok. I will take your word for it.

yep,long shirts and pants under the leathers are much more comfortable in the heat.

the moisture wicking and cooling effect is all over that way

I already have CW-X running tights. They are make from some kind of "cool max" poly lycra blend. I will pick up a long sleeve UA shirt on Monday. Thanks guys.

I don't have one, but met a sales rep from the company back in Feb and have been considering trying one.  At $70, would be a good deal if the quality turns out to be okay.

I wear a pair of Spark moisture wicking pants, and a short sleeved under amour shirt. I've never had a problem with the shirt being short sleeved...full length pants are a must though.

in the heat, I don't like the short sleeves. and my elbow always rubs against the inside of my leathers.

If nothing else else I like keeping my Vanson jacket and Rev-It Gear pants safe from my bodily funk. The moisture wicking doesn't
hurt in the heat either.

Amen to that. One of the best purchases I've made was a set of A* 'summer tech' pants.

Remarkably, they really do make me cooler in the legs at least walking around with just the pants (tights) on. Probby due to the fact my leg hair is compressed  :P. They also make getting into and more importantly out of leathers easier and really improved my comfort around the knees.

Up top, usually one of the UA 'charged' cotton shirts. Seems gimmicky, saying they dry 5x faster than regular cotton, but they really do dry a lot faster than normal cotton and are very very comfortable. More so than any of the tech (synthetic) fabric shirts I have.

I like to wear these under my leathers:



Not only do they make me ride faster but I am much more popular with the ladies in the local bars. ;D

The sports medics we use urge us to use cotton or wool.
Synthetics can melt if the slide is long enough. YMMV
