Nylon does not breathe like cotton and light weight fabrics. By breathe, it means the fabric does not allow air to pass through. So, you'd get hot and sweaty wearing nylon in the summertime. This is one reason women stopped wearing "nylons", whether hosiery or pantyhose; before 1980, wearing hose was almost mandatory for women.
