When temperatures hit anything above 25 degrees most Irish people are likely to melt rather than tan in the sun. We’d all like to be golden brown, but the reality is always cherry red.

So, why not consider the utilisation of some very cool clothing – like the USB air conditioned shirt. Powered by your pc, the air conditioned shirt has two fans strategically placed on the left and right sides of the back to keep the sweat at bay. And there’s a battery powered version for outdoor excursions. This fantastic gizmo will help you be effortlessly cool this Summer – but careful, it might also make you look like the Michelin man.
