My understanding is that the fabric on burqas (or whatever those clothes are actually called) are extremely lightweight and provide shade, so they actually aren't any warmer than t-shirts and shorts. Possibly because they block the sun, they might even be cooler.

But that's simply what I have heard and I personally don't care to find out either way.

I never tested it, but still wonder why nobody who wasn't indoctrinated into it since birth doesn't just decide to wear a burka in summer heat.
