The problem is companies who make activewear keep making them in BLACK. I don't get this.

a) it absorbs the sunlight and makes you hotter - whether or not it's wicking or not
b) they never include more than a tiny reflective patch, or their logo is reflective, so its basically worthless in that regard

I refuse to buy a shirt/jersey in black, and only buy shorts in black if they have large reflective panels (also it's hard to find bike shorts in anything other than dark colors...)
