Subpar clothing that is not air permeable or breathable is not recommended. Usually the cheaper it is, the oft used term less "breathable" it is, avoid that stuff. With cycling gear visibility is always good. If you are hot around the house in your gear before you ride, chances are you will be hot on the ride. Stay hydrated of course, take shade stops when necessary. I like a high Vis lightweight cycling vest and natural fabric lightweight shirt, wool or cotton. I like cotton underwear and cyclling padding liners or shorts. Go lightweight on the socks. I still wear cycling gloves, even when hot, for grip and in case to prevent some rash from a spill.
