Overview:

When it comes to active outdoor gear, many of us have proper attire when it comes to coats, pants, gloves, and even head-gear but what about your face or neck? Nothing can make you colder than a chilly draft across your jugular…. burr! That will make you cold in an instant!

That’s where Hoo-rag comes in with a warm, yet not bulky, way to help keep your face and neck warm while also whisking away sweat.

With the new sub-zero polar fleece Hoo-rag, you get a comfy, cozy way to keep you out on the slopes, in the woods, on the water, or just doing yard work a few hours longer. Well, what’s so great about it? For starters, the Hoo-rag can be utilized (or worn) in a variety of ways including:

  • Balaclava
  • Headband
  • Neck gaiter
  • Pirate style
  • Face mask
  • The pony
  • Alice band
  • Beanie

Quality

Hoo-rag is known for ridiculously comfortable and quality that is built to stand up to the elements. Not only will the polar fleece keep your neck cozy, but the Hoo-rag is also a great way to protect your face from wind, sun (SPF 30), and of course the cold. Keep your Hoo-rag in your coat pocket so you always have it on hand to do battle with the outdoors – and win!

Plus, you can make it your own with over a dozen designs to show your own personal style. From the patriotic American Flag to camo you will find your very own style!

Uses

Like the rest of Hoo-rag’s products, you can use this simple Hoo-rag in over 8 ways to provide the most comfort and protection possible. As I’ve already mentioned, from a balaclava to a headband to a face mask, you will find a comfortable way to stay warm! Plus, with the added neck-warming protection of fleece, you can be sure to stay warm!

Comfort

My favorite way to wear the Hoo-rag is a simple face mask which makes for a comfortable way to protect your face and neck but the majority of the uses are comfortable as well. Of course, if you are wearing a big bulky coat it can feel like the Hoo-rag gets bunched up under your throat, but just simply pull it down and it’s back to its comfortable ways!

One of the coolest things I found about the Hoo-rag, was its ability to whisk away sweat during some strenuous activities. This was great for keeping me dry while staying warm!

Effectiveness

As we have already explained, the Hoo-rag is a great way to protect yourself from the sun and the cold weather. It’s an awesome way to keep your neck/face warm, keep your face protected from the sun and help whisk away sweat to keep you comfortable! This is definitely some of the active outdoor gear you need to keep handy for your outdoor excursions! #hoorag
