Plastic pots vs fabric grow bags for hot balconies, fabric wins by a mile

Tbh I used standard plastic pots for 2 seasons on my south facing balcony in Phoenix and my tomatoes always got root cooked by July. Swapped to 10 gallon fabric grow bags this spring and the difference is night and day, the roots stay cooler and the soil dries out more evenly. I also noticed less fungus gnats since the bags breathe better. Anyone else find fabric bags help with heat stress or am I just lucky with the weather this year?
