Does this breathe well enough for hot tropical places where the temperature is always in excess of 75° F (24° C) ?

Yes, it's very breathable; the downside is that in higher speeds or lower temps you'll freeze unless you wear multiple layers.

its the best hot weather jacket I've used. I rode in San Antonio and it kept me relatively cool even in 100F temps.

My husband uses it as a summer jacket. We live in the desert. It gets over 100 F

Yes, I'm using it in Yucatan, Mexico. I use it in 30C celsius weather (85+ F), just have to remove the insulation layer. Keep in mind it's black so it only takes a few minutes to start cooking when you're not riding hehe.

By the way, I'm in Tx near Houston so it's hot and humid a lot so depending where you are, you can adapt accordingly.

The vents provide enough air for me. I ride a couple times a week in central Florida. Unless you are really sensitive to heat I think this would be ok.

I was wondering the same thing. I live in the jungle, where normal inside temp is around 85-90. Would that be considered a "cool, dry place"?

No. the instructions say it'll keep contents about 40ºF below surrounding area. I doubt you'll be in an area of under about 38ºC.

I live in Florida & use this year round. I find it to be warm but not oppressingly hot in summer. It might br too light foe winter if you live in a cold region

I've used mine once, so far. While there was a breeze, I was fine, but it did become overly warm under there. Still better than a sunburn.

It's not super hot. I've tried a lot of different mask and I really like this one. I'm a mouth breather too and this works well for me. I have been hand washing to keep it clean and free from dust etc.

Not at all! It is extremely well ventilated. The sides are see-through breathable mesh, and the first layer (which you can't see in the picture), is the same breathable mesh. You do not have to use the heavier, sun reflecting layer if you do not want to. However, I believe it will not be too hot either. I live in Southern California where it can get 100+ degrees during the summer, and I still use this every day.

I purchased this to wear in Phoenix. It is going to be hot. It's adequately ventilated for winter, but going to be chancy for summer.

I haven't used it in tropical weather but I have in snow and light rain. As long as there isn't any holes it will keep you dry. It doesn't zip closed around your head. Instead it overlaps and has velcro. There is a chance for a few bugs getting in but not many.

It does breathe but it also keeps me very warm in the winter. In the summer I would en up rolling it down and just use bed sheets. We dont have AC though and live in a climate that doesn't get too hot.

I live in hot and humid GA and I've used it on multiple trips to Disney in Orlando, FL. Obviously use caution anytime you're in the heat and especially since it will be hotter next to one another like that, but this is the most breathable and light-weight carrier on the market that I know of. Much better than the other carriers I've tried.

I use it in Haiti and is very warm here but I use it occasionally and then I take it off.

I don't sweat easily either, but on 45-52 degrees celsius I get a decent sweat going...not drenched like my hubby, but for me it's good.
