Minus33 Merino Wool 730 Midweight Neck Gaiter

Wear it with a beanie made of wool. If you don't have wool on your feet, face, and hands after spending a lot of time outside in extremely cold temperatures, you're not going to have as much fun. Feet always sweat, so wool is great there, hands get wet in snow, and you're always breathing, so your facemask/hat will invariably get wet. When using fleece, you'll notice that it always freezes up, even if you get windproof facemasks with mouth vents, and it won't dry out. Wool, on the other hand, insulates even when wet, so it will dry faster and prevent you from freezing. Please believe me, (down to -) In my experience, when it's 40 degrees outside and you're tent camping, you'll want to wear wool on your face and neck. The only thing to keep an eye on is the thickness and possibly the gaiter length (this one covers my entire face and neck, which is nice, and there isn't a lot of extra length to get in the way). This is a two-person game. ply neck gaiter made from 100% Merino Wool, 230 g/m2 Interlock Knit, 18 Fibers with a diameter of 5 microns (from the Minus33 website). So you're getting a double layer of heavierweight merino wool (light is typically 150g/m2 and mid is typically 190g/m2). This is beneficial in the winter. It won't keep you warm in the wind, but that's what your outer layers are for. This piece is fantastic; it breathes and dries quickly, and I will never use another.

The dimensions were listed as 11- by 11- by 11- by 11- by 11- by 11-by-11- 12" in height and 16" in circumference I measured it at about 10" in circumference, but it was 20" in circumference. 5" tall (not far off the shortest range) and just over 7" wide (circumference of around 14" when multiplied by two). It was extremely difficult for me to try it on over my head, and it felt extremely tight. I'm not sure if it'll stretch or shrink after being washed. The fabric, on the other hand, was fantastic. This could be a good option for women or children. However, it may be difficult to fit a man with a larger head. Unfortunately, it will be returned because I do not believe the description was accurate, which is why I gave it a low rating. If the description was correct and this was the size you wanted, it appears to be of good quality.

This gaiter is a must-have to match my minus 33 crew neck style matching shirt because it's warm, not too tight or bulky to pull over your head, and it doesn't appear to be stretching out of shape. I can pull it up over my nose or even over my eyes (not that I recommend walking around with your eyes covered, but just to give you an idea of the length). When I cover my nose and mouth, my breath condenses a little and leaves a wet spot, but I just slide it around and let it dry. It dries very quickly. I don't like having something completely covering my face all of the time, but it's a great option in a strong wind or snow storm. Merino wool is light and warm at the same time. It serves as a scarf substitute for me. It's less confining, which I like.

To name a few clothing items, I own their thick wool socks, long sleeved wool tops, and "long john" wool bottoms. I buy six pairs of their socks at a time because I adore how warm they are in the winter. This super neck gaiter is now mine. In fact, I purchased two navy, two black, two tans, and one violet. So warm! Although you can't pull it up over your head, it's perfect for keeping your neck warm! I'm not in the market for a wool scarf! But they're not just for outside; I've worn them inside as well to keep warm! With a long-sleeved top and a pair of sweatpants, you can look a little more put-together! I also don't need to turn on the heat in 40 degree weather because of the socks and other items! According to some other reviewers, this gaiter is a little itchy. Minus 33 is a comfortable temperature for me, and I never get itchy. if one exists in the first place- Merino wool isn't particularly itchy. It's not like it used to be when all wool was itchy. Wool, in my opinion, is the best material for keeping you warm on a cold day. And Minus 33 produces the highest-quality Merino wool products at the most competitive prices! Without them, I wouldn't be able to snowboard or ski. I must admit that the Navy and Black colors went over my head more easily than the Tan and Violet. This gaiter has a sewn-in cord at one end, and it appears to be a little tighter on the last two colors than on the first two. It's not a big deal to me because my head is small, but I just wanted to let you know.

The knit fabric is comfortable and soft (but not buttery soft). It's made out of a merino wool knit fabric that's been sewn into a tube, folded in half, and sewn at the bottom. The neck gaiter will become thicker as a result of this. The stitches are neat and tidy. It's a perfect fit for my 16-year-old daughter! /2" neck in a relaxed position. It shouldn't be too tight or too loose. I can easily pull it up over my nose and mouth because it's long enough. In sub-zero temperatures, I'm hoping that this, along with my beanie, will keep my head and face warm.

It is 11 inches tall, 8 inches wide (laid flat), and about 1/16 thick (two layers measured together as it was made). The material is soft and smooth, and it is stretchy sideways but not lengthwise. It can stretch to almost 13 inches wide, but it must be washed because it stinks like a factory. There are no loose or irregular threads in the stitching, which indicates that it is of good quality. It's comfortable to wear because I can fold it in half and half again to cover only my neck. My neck was unconcerned about the cold, even though the temperature was 17 degrees Fahrenheit. When you don't want to put on a scarf or a Ninja balaclava, this is the perfect option. I washed it by hand in tepid water with a mixture of shampoo and body wash (I ran out of Woolite) and let it air dry. I considered using a cream rinse, but it seemed excessive. It stayed in shape the entire time. It appears that you've found a winner. China is the source of this product. One star deducted because of the unattractive logo and the disproportionately large tag.

This was one of the most important pieces in keeping me warm during a trip to Lapland (Finland) in December. I spent 5 hours a day outside in Arctic conditions. The only issue I had was that when I put it over my mouth and nose and breathed heavily, it became damp. Although it dried quickly, I tried some other wool products and they all had the same problem, so I don't believe this can be avoided. When the weather gets colder, I'll be sure to use this.
