The pants are hell in real heat If you are working an entire day several games in abnormally high heat, for me - those compression pants were the worst. I was noticeably cooler when I stopped believing the BS that layering up in the heat makes you cooler and stopped wearing the compression pants.

Somewhere, some guy said "Hey, I'm going to invent skin tight compression pants and tell people that if they wear them under their normal clothes they will be cooler"

His buddy told him "No one is going to believe that, people have been wearing long johns in the winter a long time to keep you warm. Everyone knows more clothes = more hot"

"I'll put it on the label that it makes you cooler and draw an arrow showing them how it makes you cooler, they will buy it"

"It will never work"

But he was wrong, it did work.

You're drinking the Kool-Aid here. We don't insulate houses only in the winter then yank it out in the summer to make the house cooler. Proper layering will keep you cooler in the summer.
