    What are you wearing under your vest?

    For years I've been fine with generic "under armor" type wicking shirts, but for some reason I'm getting the torso equivalent of monkey-butt this year. Any cool new hi-tek ultra under-shirts out there that are cooler and don't itch? Or should I just start rolling in a big pile of Gold Bond before getting dressed?
    Sorta around sometimes for some of your shitty mod needs.

    Duluth thin breathable summer shirts.

    If the weather is over 105 I don't wear a shirt and just wash the carrier.

    Didn’t Mike Seeklander recommend an ice block thing that fit behind the vest?

    I'm just wearing cotton t-shirts and suffering. Febreeze is my friend.

    I used to wear the Walmart Starter brand moisture wicking t-shirts.

    Wisconsin for now
    Mostly either cotton T-shirts or under armour heat gear shirts, the real soft ones not usually the silky type ones, though I have a couple of those.

    I wear the UA compression shirts. They are just the most comfortable under the armor. (no pun intended. Yes, Blues I channeling your inner punster). The trick to keeping them and the carrier clean is washing with this stuff in the rinse cycle. Eliminates monkey torso.

    Lysol laundry sanitizer

    Did 7 miles of foot patrol in my gear and vest the other day. Weather approaching 100 degrees or more.

    Under my vest was likely some random old navy, jc penny, walmart black or blue cheap shirt. Of course I always bring a change of clothes to work and when I get a chance, I at least switch my shirt out.

    I forgive you. I wear the UA sleeveless compression shirts (for CCW) but I no longer wear body armor. The Heat Gear and Charged Cotton Shirts from UA would be pretty good as well, imho.
    There's nothing civil about this war.

    It more about the compression than the actual material. Lets the armor sort of move with me rather than bunch up the undershirt like cotton shirts tend to.

    That Lysol product is the bitch kitty. Makes the shirts and armor carrier stink resistant
