I have split feelings on this. Sometimes I need something to cope with heat, since I don’t have AC at home and almost all travel I do is via biking, walking, or transit. My city is temperate so usually the temperature isn’t a problem. When it is a problem, I have usually used a simpler solution like a wet $10 cooling towel around the neck. That said, it would be kind of nice to have something that isn’t so visible and wet. This is also based in Japan, with a larger amount of transit use where people are going straight from the office to transit stations while in clothing that is not good for a heat wave. If it’s keeping people out of cars, I’m all for it.
