I haven't used my new Buff yet, but it looks great and can't wait to put it to work! I like the insect repellant feature which Is why I wanted to get it.

Stretchy & Cool
I really like that this material stretches over my head & hair easier than the older insect shield version I have. It’s also a lighter & cooler material. It’s actually so thin & stretchy that I was concerned it would tear easily from the rough edges. While I’m sure it could be done, it hasn’t happened in my 10+ wears. It did start pilling at the 1st wash & has moderate pilling now. Other than that, I am happy.

Essential Gear
Bought this for a week long fly fishing trip in Alaska. This thing was absolutely essential gear. Cut the wind sure, but it kept the sun and the bugs away—all while not feeling hot. I couldn’t really imagine the the tech would work, but it was great. If you want to keep sun and bugs away, this is what you’re looking for.

I Didn’t Know I Need This!
This is the first Buff I have purchased and I now know why it should be a staple in my hiking pack! It’s soft and so versatile! Keeps the sun off my face and neck and I can use it as a hair wrap to keep my dirty hair out of my face while sleeping. Can’t attest to the insect repellant factor yet but I hope it will help when I’m in the deep woods! I love it and want to have this in all the colors!!

Good Coverage And Fun Prints
Bought to use while kayaking and trail running to protect my neck and the spots where I always miss sunscreen. Works really well; used it in lakes, reflective snowy surfaces, and in the beating sun without sunscreen in that area and haven’t gotten burned. Wore while camping in mosquito country and did notice they avoided my neck so I’d say it works. It’s long enough to cover my neck and head, and also works well as a face mask if needed. I got the blue hatch design, and it’s really vibrant and fun, too.
