I thought for sure it did, but not enough for anyone to say anything.

Okay. I got you now. Still, the over shirt will have to be looser and even then they just don't conceal as well as a jacket or sport coat does for a shoulder rig. So far, my first and only shoulder rig, fobus roto shoulder harness, I wore how you describe, but with an over shirt one and two sizes up. It worked okay in the winter, but, as you pointed out, no way in the summer in Texas. I didn't own a sport coat then, 9 years ago, but I have two now and depending on how things go at work, due to the parking lot changes, I'm hoping that CHLs will be allowed to carry inside and I'll get more use out of them. The look works on me, but I'm pretty plain and can pull off just about any look.

Went to the local Army Surplus and found a harness built into a tight shirt. Nice, but I will be wearing this everyday. Still can see the printing. At $55.00 per shirt, just a little expensive. Guess I could wear the same one every day. But then I wouldn't need to conceal. Nobody could stand to be close enough to see my weapon hidden under my shirt.
And did I mention, it needs to be not touching my skin. Must be cloth between me and the weapon.

It sounds like you are planning on wearing two t-shirts with the shoulder rig between them. Whether one or two t-shirts, this doesn't sound very easy to draw from. Have you given this any thought? A shoulder rig, given your criteria, doesn't sound like the best way to carry.

How is the balance with three mags on once side and your gun on the other side?
