New from Buff this winter 2009 is a 100% merino wool version of their multifunctional headwear with all the properties you'd expect from the natural fabric and called the Wool Buff.

Merino is 100% natural, from merino sheep, has very fine fibres compared to standard wool, so is comfortable next to the skin. It manages the neat trick of feeling cool in hot weather and warm in cooler conditions. It has natural anti-pong properties and finally, can absorb a high proportion of its weight in water without becoming uncomfortable.

The merino Buff is also slightly longer than the standard, microfibre version, says UK importer Buffera, which makes it slightly more versatile and - for example - capable of protection both neck and head simultaneously.

The Wool Buff comes in seven different plain colours to suit your mood and retails for £21. We have one on the way and we'll let you know how it performs, looks like a good option for winter and, dare we say it, Christmas as well.

One of the great things about buffs was the lack of seams. Saw one of these 3 or 4 months ago and the great big seam down the middle really let it down. I'll stick with my old school buff thank you.

Yes, the original Buff really strikes me as a product that needs no tinkering with, variation or 'improvement'.

(except possibly some of the patterns!! )

I'll be 102 by the time she finishes it!
