Even the best mesh jacket can't protect you from everything the heat does to you. Lack of concentration, headaches and irritability are often the first signs that your body is reaching its limit.

- Know the warning signs: If you lose focus or mistakes start piling up, it's time for a break in the shade.
- Drink ahead: Drink before you're thirsty – thirst often comes too late.
- Cool down, don't strip off: A wet cloth on your neck helps more than leaving your jacket off. The armour stays on.
