I have a 'Heat' shirt and 'Turf' pants. I couldn't find 'Heat' pants. Don't know if they make them. My '89 suit is done with 'Turf'. I think it's the most light-wieght,but very strong. I think it depends on your own personal taste,or where you live,or when/where you plan to wear it,etc.,etc. FYI,I did see a gray shirt the other day,but no gray pants. Still don't think they make them.

It conforms to your body perfectly. It draws sweat away and keeps you cool and dry. The armor glues to it very nicely with DAP. Armor/fabric does not sag or bunch up. After the armor,if you decide to apply latex,it goes on beautifully.(NOTE:once glue and latex are applied,these areas are probably no good for sweat absortion any longer.This is why I would suggest just gluing the very edges of the armor and latexing only the neccessary areas.) With or without the armor,it will hug your body like a second skin. When you twist your arm,the fabric moves with your arm. I think that about covers it. :)  John :flapbat nondisclosed_email@example.com (Blackwood Bat)Fri, 16 Jul 2004 15:42:38 +0000 Re: UNDER ARMOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!https://bbrotherhoodofthebat.runboard.com/p1784564,from=rss#post1784564https://bbrotherhoodofthebat.runboard.com/p1784564,from=rss#post1784564Why not?

It's designed to keep you either cool or warm (depending on which variety you get). It also has a "compression" feature which is supposed to give your muscles extra support during extreme activity & supposedly cuts down on cramping & soreness. It's pretty comfortable to wear. It seems like it would be strong enough for most armor - at least I hope it is. I guess I'll find out pretty soon... I think a few of the bros around here have used it successfully as an undersuit. Anyone else care to comment?nondisclosed_email@example.com (KnightStix)Thu, 15 Jul 2004 15:41:18 +0000 Re: UNDER ARMOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!https://bbrotherhoodofthebat.runboard.com/p1784559,from=rss#post1784559https://bbrotherhoodofthebat.runboard.com/p1784559,from=rss#post1784559Please excuse my ignorance, but what is Under Armor made from? It looks like Neoprene in the pics... but the photos may be misleading. Also, is it trong enough to take armor without sagging?

It always makes me feel a little funny (no pun or offense intended there) . At least I can always say - it's for my wife. I always get the look like - JEEZ your wife must be huge, or an Amazon or Phillistine woman! That's why I never try things on in the store! I take it home & return it if it doesn't fit! :lol :lol :lol The funny part is that my wife is actually pretty small and in fantastic shape (even though she is pregnant right now ). OK, sorry for the :hijack and the dissertation...

I thought I was the only one "strange" enough to look in the womens' dept. I always act like I'm looking for something for my wife . Anyway, I checked & all they had were the length that comes just below the knee (capri length???).
