I think he is asking under the underrobes.

People wear all kinds of different things, from under armor, to tshirt and shorts, to just underwear. I don't think it really matters as long as its comfortable to you cause you are going to be the only one that knows whats under your robes.

Thanks, that's exactly what i thought!

I have this question because i still don't have my costume complete, so i haven't used it for mor than 15 minutes and i wanted to know any experiences about trooping for hours with that hot costume on and if somebody thinks that "X" is more comfortable thank "X" to use under the robes.

I think under armour is a good choice... or not?

All depends on the climate. I wouldn't wear a sweater in the summer or shorts in the winter.

Remember...Stripes is in Canada which means it snows for 10 months out of the year :trsuit:

In all reality it depends upon the climate of the event you're trooping. I normally wear shorts regardless of the weather but when I do an outdoor troop in December I'll have pants on. When I troop an outdoor event in July and it's 90+ degrees out I might go without the shorts. It's all personal.

True enough about the climate, at least we don't live in igloo's or drive dog sleds to work.... In all fairness though, we've had troops in weather from 30 deg. C to -30 deg. C..... Always find that heatgear under armour has been useful... It kept me half decent at C6 as well, granted we were only outside on the bridge from the Rosen to the OCCC...
