I have had one of these before some years ago and it was the most useful thing I ever bought. I bought this as I lost my other one and felt this was more useful and more comfortable than wearing a mask during this Covid-19 pandemic. You will get so used to wearing this that you wont even realise that you have it around your neck to be fair. It washes really well and they wear really well too. The fact that you can simply wrap it around your wrist if you dont want it on, use it as a beanie hat, a mask or neck warmer to keep the drafts out means it can be used pretty much all year around. I dont have much hair and used to use mine as a way to keep the sun from burning my head!Buffs are not the cheapest,

I was given a UV Buff a few weeks ago and really like it, but as it's getting colder I found it not that great at keeping my neck and face warm. Understandable though, as it comes under the 'Summer' category on the Buff website. I thought an 'Original' Buff would suit me better as it would be more versatile than a 'Summer' variation. It arrived today and it looks really nice, however, it actually looks slightly thinner than the UV one. I don't think it's actually thinner, but the weave looks very slightly more open than the UV one, so I doubt this'll be any better. So a bit disappointed as I hoped for a slightly heavier weight fabric. Maybe I should stop complaining,

I've used this a fair bit since it arrived and it does exactly what I wanted it to. When out with the dog it keeps the wind off my neck and/or chin, when in a cold room I can pull it over my bald head and it keeps me relatively cosy. Not a heavy duty thing, so when the winter gales blow I'll crack out the scarf, but for something that I can slip in a pocket it's easy to carry and will do the job, especially given there is no weight to it. My only complaint, and a minor one at that, is the usual one size fits all doesn't fit all. I have a big head and when wearing it as a bandana it can be a little tight. Similarly getting it over my head in the first place can be a little uncomfortable,

If you have to wear a face covering and don't want to look like an extra from a hospital show, these are much better looking and fulfil the basic requirement of covering your nose and mouth. They're very breathable, so very low-end as an effective filter, but that may or may not matter to you depending on your beliefs. I much prefer these as they're more comfortable to wear, effective at keeping your neck warm, are easy to slip up over your nose if you have to, and there's loads of nice designs to choose from. Looking like a bank robber is an added bonus.The Buff ones are a league above the much cheaper copies, as they seem to be a lot stretchier and stay on your face at all times. Not as cheap,

Great design. Amazing versatility in ways with which it can be worn - see youtube videos showing how many different ways to wear it, plus some simple icons on the packaging card it is attached to. The colour was as expected. The inside is a pale pink which is 75% solid colour, you can see the exterior pattern and colour but it looks ok. This loses a star for these reasons...1. The edges are raw, no sewn neat hem2. On the inside pink colour near one edge there are two printed paragraphs of grey text, which is a pain to hide.3. Too many logos on the exterior - 4!4. Inside should be a shade matching outer colours.5. It says seamless but there are 2 visible seam looking lines in the fabric,

I have a few Buff tubes, mostly I wear them in lieu of a medical type face mask in these peculiar times.I also use for jogging and walking as a headband and if cold a semi balaclava/snood.They are so versatile they are really handy to have one or two in your bag or car.This one is as the others, nicely stretchy without becoming see through, absorbs sweat well enough when required and adds a layer of warmth to my face if I need that.It washes great in the machine, there is a little pattern fade but I am wearing one all day most days of the week whilst at work.Above all however I just much prefer something more stylish than a green or blue paper medical mask and this is the perfect

A nice thin, lightweight Buff. I use it to cover my face/mouth whilst cycling to keep the chill off and it works wonders. Can easily breathe through 2 layers of the fabric and it removes pretty much all wind chill.If it gets too warm like that, it's easy to pull it down and use it as a scarf. On the rare occasion I go for a run, it's also good for keeping longer hair out of your face, and doesn't move around or need as much adjusting as a hat does.I bought the red/black one, and it looks good, but sometimes I mistake the design for mud splatters, especially considering where I use it.

Delivery was quicker than quoted and the product was of the quality I ordered. The only word of advice would be that this one looks a little more feminine than what I guessed (when I wear it) but this is due to personal fashion/decisions. I use this one the most as I like the colour and pattern but others may see the possible downside I do. These products are very good for those thinking of buying them, I'm a cyclist and these keep insects out of my mouth and I like the way they look. The downside for use is that if I'm stationary because of traffic then my sunglasses can steam up.

I bought this mainly to run in during the colder months of the year. I decided to go with a Buff rather than a hat because they're so diverse, I can easily wear it around my head to keep my ears warm and then slip it on my wrist when I get back. I haven't been disappointed at all, it's easy fitting and easy to wash.The only thing to keep in mind is that this particular material is very thin and I can't imagine using it for skiing etc.I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys outdoor hobbies, as I can imagine it would come in useful in many situations

I bought this for my Dad as a Christmas present! I never know what to get and he has been looking for some sort of neck tie/slim scarf/bandana for ages but not seen anything he liked - he wanted something that is not bulky!I got the Buff as it is light weight, yet still warm, and 'not in the way bulky' and he loves it!! Very versatile...and I have just ordered another one from Amazon as he was so pleased, this time in colour! :-)[Buff Original Multi Function Headwear - Black]

It's a simple concept, but it performs the function of warming very well. For me, I just use it as a neck warmer with the odd pull up to cover the nose on a *really* cold day (I've used at -5C so far, quite happily). Other runners use them in "head cap" mode and so on.When getting too warm, it's so easy to just wrap it onto a wrist instead, or loop through a belt, etc., so carrying is simple.Washes easily with the rest of the running gear at low-temps - dries very quickly.

This buff is as cool as the picture, it looks exactly like it and sets you apart from other buffs as it's pretty distinctive. Whether it's for a Negan cosplay or time in the wilds, it's a pretty good bit of kit.I would however recommend this for summer camping as opposed to winter as it's just a thin layer of cotton, no additional fleece components to keep you warm. That being said, that quality alone makes it great for filtering water.

There is a lot of fabric in this scarf. I bought it as a headband to protect my forehead from the sun but thought it might get a bit hot so I cut it into two headbands one thicker than the other and now I have a choice to have a thick or thin headband! The pattern on the fabric is a beautiful art nouveau design and the deep pink is gorgeous. Very comfortable and versatile but I can't comment on its SPF performance yet.

Ordered the black variant. Originally I bought it to keep the wind from my neck when cycling, I have also used it as an under helmet beanie to keep my head and ears warm from those cold rides. I also use it when off the bike and it doesn't look out of place at all even with smart, casual clothing. Wears well with no fading after 3 months of regular machine washes.

The style and design on the xin yang is great, The Buff is light and thin and doesn't take up a lot of space the only downfall on this product is I found the cuttings on it is very rough and looks ripped in some places making it a little bit uncomfortable and itchy to wear but is easily resolved by folding over the edges other then that it is a decent product.
