Strengths: The Polar Buff is a great piece of kit and has been part of my gear for a couple of years now. I am into winter walking and climbing in Scotland and the Buff makes the difference between a cold wind and spindrift down the back of the neck and being snugg.
Weaknesses: Silly designs,,,Plain Black will do.
Overall: An essential piece of kit for cold conditions.
Strengths: Superb pice of winter kit again just like the buff you can make hats, bandanas, head bands, swans, and many more things
Weaknesses: Polartec can get very moist when you have it over your mouth in adverse conditions
Overall: If the buff wasn't good enought for you to use all year round take a look at it's fleecy brother which has a polartec fleecy tube ontop of the trad tube. Smart! I use mine as a neck scarf most of the time or as a bandana under my helmet very useful pice of kit highly reccomended
Strengths: Lovely bit of fleece on your bog standard bit of Buff material. Lovely for keeping those ears a bit warming. Used for a week long fieldtrip to Wales in November much to the envy of coursemates. Loads of different uses too, works well under a helmet/hard-hat too. Weighs nothing as well.
Weaknesses: Can be a bit too warm and sweaty at times. Quite pricey for a tube of material!
Overall: A welcome addition to my sack at winter.
