I believe the answer is:

vests

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'get a bit sweaty' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'during the harvest summertime they' is the wordplay.
'during' indicates a hidden word.
'VESTS' is hidden in the letters of 'harvest summertime they'.

'can' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for vests that I've seen is " Sleeveless garments".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
