"Initially seemed like a gimmicky item for the racer who has everything, but this Buff brand headgear may become an essential piece of equipment. Its merits are immediate in frigid weather running, cold/cool weather cycling and for trail running in all seasons.
This item also can have a good fashion appeal for both women and men - especially since it doesn't necessarily look like all the spandex crap we wear! "windnsnow

Ease of use

Lots of different ways to use this. It is full of possibilities.

(4)

Quality of Construction

Seamless and seems durable. However, gets stinky after only one use, which makes me question how many washes it will survive.
Because it is seemless, there are no loose threads!

(5)

Fit

Fits as well as any stretchy tube would. It is surprisingly versatile!

(5)

Comfort

More comfortable than a scarf or other "tube" type things I wear when I run.

(5)

Adjustability

Infinite adjustability

Durability

Not sure. It may need to be washed a lot and don't know how well it will last

(5)

Value

Got mine as a gift. But the cost is very reasonable for what you are getting.

Appearance

Little Scottish flags (gift from Scotland) pretty cool look. Looks good around my neck. Looks interesting around my wrist. Looks like a bunch of Scottish flags on a small tube top when it is on my head.

Performance

I would give this a 5 except for the "smelly" factor. It just seems to grab and hold sweat faster than my other stuff. Washes out very cleanly though.

Strengths

Seamless, multifunctional headwear. It is lightwaeight and a great baselayer or emergency neck/headgear.
Also suitable as a wrist band.
If I was younger and half the size and cared about not going topless, it could also be used as a tubetop - as in Survivor show.
Haven't used it in summer conditions, but I think it will be a great skull cap for under helmet use and neck band (when wet) for cooling down.
