Review: Good product - Second one I've owned. First one finally ripped after over 2 years. Possibly my fault, won't be so aggressive tugging at the new one. Its 100% cotton, so it'll shrink bit after wash and dry...to a perfect size IMO. Pro tip-the "tan" color will fade after each wash to where it eventually becomes an "off-white"'ish color. I like it. The white on is exactly that, white. A bit loud for my taste. Pretty darn reasonable for $11 shipped as of 12/17/25.
Review: A travel essential. - Is not for cold climate, but it offer breathability and protection for the sun. I love the color. Quality is very good and it feel nice on your neck. I used is as intended but it can be use as a towel, as a pillow in a plane, you named it.
