Quote:More important than color in heat absorption, is the chemical property of the material. Where say, carbon steel will absorb heat better than a plastic or wood, you must look at the materials of the jerseys. The new fabrics used in athletic wear (especially football jerseys) are designed to deflect light - no matter the color. Add in these jerseys are only millimeters thick - atop pads, undershirts and other athletic equipment - it does not make a difference.
