Kydex and hot weather - Page 3

I've been wearing a CTAC w/ a G27 everyday for about 3 weeks. Im in Central FL, and I wear jeans or pants to work every day. I dont have much problem with the CTAC sticking to my skin. I DO work inside now instead of in the field, so take that as you will. The only problem I have had with the CTAC is that if you screw the kydex attachment tabs (J,C, or Standard clips) in too far the bolt will stick out and poke your skin/hip/butt/whatever. I have backed them out a couple turns now, and it seems to be ok.

Added note: I'm a tall thin guy 6'1 160lbs.

Well, placed an order for one last night. When it arrives I'll head over to Wally World and get some Moleskin and see how it does. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for all of the great information on your experiences. This is a great site with tons of great information.

Yes it is an EXCELLENT site! Lots of good guys with good info to share...even though I manage to get SOMEBODY'S feathers ruffled quite often! I dunno...maybe I post too much, or say the wrong things, or attack the wrong people...or...all of the above! Oh well...that's life!

as others have said a lightweight tank top wears nice under your over shirt. also your over shirt doesn't get as sweaty as the tank top absorbs most of your sweat.

+1 undershirt, maybe even an "A" shirt (the kind you see in old movies). Works for me.
