White Shirt / Black Shirt – The Unscientific Survey
In the heat of summer…. as in now… which is better to wear for outside activities?
Note. I own and run my own pool service and spa repair company and work outdoors. When I would see someone walking around in a black shirt in the hight of summer here in Fresno (many days are 100 +) I thought they were crazy. But, me being me, I decided to see just how crazy they are, and started wearing black tee shirts out in the hot sumer sun while I’m working. Wouldn’t you know it, I swear they actually keep me cooler than white ones do! Those ninjas are really on to something!!!!
Next phase of the experiment – to cut a black and a white shirt in half, sew the black and white halves together, and see / feel which side keeps me cooler.
Stay tuned!
