Take a black shirt and lay it flat on the ground on a hot day and place a thermometer inside. Leave it for 30 minutes and read the temp. Let the thermometer cool to the same temp it was before you put in in the shirt and then do the same experiment with a white shirt.
It just isn't enough of a difference to matter to me. I absolutely despise powder blue and don't carry it, much to the chagrin of some of my partners.
