Ergodyne Chill-Its 6489 2-Layer Cooling Multi-Band Headband, 2X/3X, Blue

When I first took this out of the packaging, I wasn't overly impressed. It seemed a little too short and very unlike all my other neck gaiters. I don't think I even tried wearing it for a month... Finally one day when all of my other neck gaiters were in the wash, I had no choice. I realized quickly that I actually LOVE the design of this. The nose piece is great and I can form it to the exact shape of my nose (none of my other neck gaiters have that and I think it's great.) The nose piece material seems very forgiving and isn't super permanent, so generally after I pull down my neck gaiter and pull it back up over my face, I gently reshape the nose piece each time (which is actually nice because I have nose pieces in other masks that are not forgiving, and whatever shape you bend them into they will stay in permanently, resulting in me ruining quite a few masks that I over bent the nose piece on.) And I actually love the short length!!! I am a woman and sometimes neck gaiters make me feel like I have a huge fabric beard... this one is a bit shorter than most, so I get less neck gaiter beard than usual. Last thing I will say is that a lot of people in the reviews seem to agree that the mask is a little tight. I agree, but I actually like it. I ordered a S/M and I have a small female face. The tightness of the neck gaiter is actually what makes me like it so much because I prefer the look of tighter fitting face masks, but I also like neck gaiters because they can sit on my neck when not in use. So for me, having a tight fitting neck gaiter is the best of both worlds. There are three other size options so I would say just size up if you are not a fan of a snug fit mask.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love it. The material was comfortable and breathable, yet warm when dry. The metal nose clip is an awesome addition lacking in most gaiters of similar style. When wet, it has a very pleasant cooling effect that is great for working in the heat. Temperatures upwards of 100 degrees do tend to require multiple reapplications of water as it will dry out over time, but that is to be expected. If you're working in the sun it provides great protection for your skin. The only fatal flaw isn't even the product's fault. I have a fat head. I received the L/XL, which I'm sure is big enough to suit most people, but alas, not me. It unfortunately was just too tight for over the face or around the head wear. My nose was flattened. I had hoped that maybe it would stretch over time, but the material is too good for that. It retained it's shape over two months of frequent use and multiple washes. I could still wear it around my neck relatively comfortably though, so not a total loss. I still use it and will continue to. Overall a great product.
