As I've aged I care more and more about avoiding too much exposure to the sun. When I was much younger and living in Southern California, I would not allow myself to run shirtless on consecutive days. Now even that does not seem moderate enough with respect to sun exposure. I'm in NYC now and occasionally I see east Asian women with parasols and think they have proper respect for the sun.
"Running shirtless isn't the coolest option in the sun."
I discovered this phenonmenon recently after running for many years. Well, it might be because I moved to the south US recently. I took off my shirt while I was running but put it back on when I got to an area with people around. I noticed immediately I felt cooler. I think this is why the Bedouins in the desert wear those loose garments. I always thought they must be hot under those clothes!
The fattest nation on earth loves running around with no top on,You need to have a proper look at yourself and see your fat wobbling and realise how stupid you look,maybe you wouldn't take it off if you realise how ugly you are.

Look, another fatty got triggered
This tread inspired me to run shirtless yesterday.
I noticed much better running posture, as I was more conscious not to slouch

Not really though. Are you an imbecile? Americans are fat. Very fat. Most of them.
Yea I bump this. At first taking the shirt off can relieve you for a while but then putting it on again will give you another cooling effect.
I feel that when it gets truly hot like in the humid 80s and 90s people care less about you being shirtless. Like they think ‘yea it’s freaking hot I don’t blame them for not wearing a shirt’. But also you should be able to not wear a shirt any time you want running outside and not be judged who cares what these people think?
Wow! I also started running shirtless after reading this post and I love it. I just see all these damn people staring at me from their car and house windows. Well, some of them are made by my friend's housing company. They specialize in German Windows by the way.

No one of sane mind notices anyone running, shirtless or otherwise, for any longer than it concerns them. People have too many other things to worry about. It doesn't matter in the least.

Finally someone has the same view as me! People need to worry about their own life issues and not get concerned about why others are running shirtless when its TOO HOT OUTSIDE.
Imagine they were wearing shirts, then we wouldn't have these iconic images

And again, which one should be official
Socially unacceptable in most of Asia if not all of Asia either.

Yep I've found this as well. My posture is definitely better when my shirt is off.
Aus here.
Running shirtless is a great feeling. It's how nature designed us to run. Sun on my chest, wind on my back...
This summer I started running shirtless. Even though I do my running at night, the humidity and heat was just terrible.
When running shirtless I noticed two things. First, my upper body felt slightly cooler. Second, my shorts ended up totally soaked with sweat. Same with my shoes and socks. So it's a case of pick your poison. Soaked shirt or soaked shirts and shoes.
I love running shirtless.
Depends on the temperature. Above 70F I lose the shirt.
