Bought a 2-pack for my son & I to go winter backpacking. He didn't even know what a gaiter was, but as soon as he saw it he took it. Said 'Well, this is going backpacking!'

I'm a big guy, but I wouldn't say I have a big neck. It fits snugly around my neck. 4 stars for that.
I've been wearing it for the past hour indoors and it's comfortable. I know it's there though.

It is very breathable.

It is a bit scratchy like about any new clothing item. I'm sure it will soften with a wash or two, which I will do soon. (I don't like the feel of new clothes.)

The pictures show it as a loose fit around the neck but it's really snug. Maybe if you have a thin neck it would be ok but I'm 6'2 and have a muscular neck so it's snug like an ace wrap. I'm going to try and put it on something bigger to try and stretch it out. They should make a larger size for guys that are bigger. Really tight on my face too but I can deal with that.

But they are definitely a wear and wash item so glad there is 2!

If your reading this far you need to just add to cart. I've owned and used a bunch of different neck sleeves. From the thin, stretchy kind you see literally everywhere, (Which are great for certain situations) to the very thick insulated ones (which are best for very cold weather). This one is a happy medium. It's not too thin, nor too thick. It's well made and doesn't feel cheap. It basically feels like a big semi-thick sports/compression sock you would get from puma, under armor etc. It's elastic enough to stay put, but not enough to literally squeeze your face & be uncomfortable. Which is great for us who wear these while putting in work and need it to stay put. A GREAT feature of this is the area around your mouth is perferated with tiny slots so you can actually breath well while wearing it, which most others do not have. Also it's pretty good looking. Looks a little tactical and a little cool because of the subdued logo's everywhere. And the black & grey combination just looks good. It's thick enough to keep your neck & face/ears warm enough if you pull it up. It basically acts as a barrier between your skin and the weather. And its even great to wear just around your neck on days/situations were you don't need it covering your face. I hope this brand comes out with more patterns & color's because I would buy more of them as thats how much I like it. (Not sure if they do, just haven't seen them). And just a last tip. If you put the front just over your nose & pull the back up to cover your ears at the right angle as to not block your eyes, you can put on your hat or beenie on and get a lot of protection and the hat will actually keep it in place and not let it slip down. Which is how I wear mine a lot. Match this setup with a hoodie with the hood up and your good to go, rain, cold, snow, etc. I'm not saying this is best for extreme environments. That would call for a thick insulated type or hood type. But for most situations it's very adequate. I hope this review helps explain this enough to be helpful. Order one! You won't be disappointed. 🥷

Fast delivery, well packaged.
Will have to wash before use.
Very impressed, with the texture and the breathing area. We are riding the Swiss Alps soon and needed something I believe these are going to be perfect.
