How I missed this cool product all these years is beyond me! I was concerned when I opened the package that this wool is so thin, almost sheer, but I've been testing it out in the house and I'm burning up. Bunching it up creates pockets of warm air, similar to the concept of how down works. I think if it's extremely windy and Polar Vortex levels of cold I'll need more for my ears. But for most days this will work just great. I don't have a large head and can see trying the Junior size in future for a closer fit, but I feel the loose bunching on this is what I need to trap warmth. Could go either way to be honest. High quality merino wool. No seam! Love the lush grey that will go with everything. This will be a practical and versatile addition to my winter accessories collection.
Now to choose an original Buff for my summer camping trips! I'm guessing these are perfect for keeping pesky no-see-ums out of my ears without drenching myself in DEET or having to wear a hoodie on hot humid days!

Merino wool is soft and comfortable around neck
Only buy Buff solid product line
Extremely baggy. I bought this wanting a neck gaiter for winter weather. I have a few cheaper made face shields and I love them so much that I wanted to get a nice Buff made of Marino wool. This is very soft and I can imagine it being comfy if it fit well. However the one I received could fit two of my necks in it. It’s even loose around my head and the extra space left over leaves for quite a breeze.
It does fit my dog well however, so it’s not a complete waste.
I took mine along on my last camping trip. Fantastic! I used it as a neck gaiter when it was chilly, then over my ears & part of my head (under my hat) when it was cold. When there was a cool wind blowing off the lake, I pulled it up over my face. When it got warm during the day, I just pulled it off and shoved it in my pack or in a breast pocket. At night, in my sleeping bag, I wore it over my neck, ears, and head, instead of a cap. In warmer weather, I'll put it around my inflatable pillow, to use in lieu of the bandana that was trying, and failing, to be a pillowcase.
I'm going to take this with me when I go skiing, and wear it with, maybe even under, my neoprene face mask. I think it will also go with me the next time I fly, in case it gets a little chilly on the plane.
This is a great little multi-tasker that weighs next to nothing, is super soft and comfortable, and provides just the right amount of warmth and protection. Thumbs up!
One thing i have to warn you.. moths¡¡ Be careful when storing this type of garment, since being merino wool, it would attract those insects easily. I saw several comments saying the buff is thin and prone to holes, i bet it is because those holes were made by larvae moths that are deposit by the moth and literally eat the buff away..
Soo store wool in zip bags and make sure to clean it before storage, some people put them in the fridge for a day or two to kill those eggs..
Unfortunately i had to learnt the hard way. after only one day of use, i kept it in my closet with the remaining gloves, jackets, etc.. i did not washed since it was used for 20 minutes or so but 10 months later, i tried my buff and i had a bluff¡¡ the moths know what is best for them..
