    Depends

    It all depends. When I wear 100% polyester outdoors, it is fine. Eg. when I golf, I dislike having anything in my way when I swing. In this case, poly is great as it doesn't stick to our skin. Cotton is great and comfortable, but it sticks. Therefore, not suitable for sports like golf. I agree cotton is still the best when it comes to sports like badminton. I would say 50% cotton, 50% polyester for a shirt is great.

    Just to add on to Ar Dan,

    Not all Yonex VeryCools are made in Japan, unless it was a Japanese model. I have one which is made in Vietnam which I purchased at a local store in Canada.

    Matt, do you find any difference between the ones made in Japan and Vietnam/China?

    I use Adidas ClimaCool, and it works very well.

    I tried Nike Drifit, and it felt too warm for some reason.
