I get almost 1/2h of evap cooling out of my cotton T-shirts. That is
usually enough to get to the next lake, creek or other water source.


My lycra skin suit dries far quicker than 1/2h of riding. More like 5-10
minutes.


That's exactly what one does not want for evap cooling. Cotton provides
enough of a reservoir to keep evaporating and thus cooling my body for
half an hour. On hot days I wear the slightly thicker version T-shirts
for that reason.


bull**** alert.
