Kanye West is apparently half man, half robot... based on his wardrobe amid this intense heat wave.

Ye hit up the Chateau Marmont in We Ho on Monday night and opted for shorts, which makes sense. But, what's with what looks like one of his trademark long sleeve, 100% cotton tees?

It was unusually hot over the weekend in L.A. and temperatures are slowly dipping this week, but it's still too hot and humid outside to be rocking long sleeves ... in our humble and sweaty opinion. (Sorry for bitching, America. L.A.'s used to perfect weather).

Next time, Kanye ... rip a page outta Harry Styles' book.
