(pic) (Jack, H23.5, SecondSojourn,Clermont Fl.) Forgetting about how nice it looks, Is there a general overall agreement on color for these tops. I think black would be really HOT looking but not COOL!!! Does anyone have experience with a bad choice of color. I'm sure the fade factor depends on color. And I'm sure some colors have a better ability to block heat from the sun, or at least reflect the heat so it doesn't radiate though the fabric whether it be Vinyl or Acrylic. Any advice or thoughts?
