Gaiters
There are no products listed under this category.
The neck gaiter has always been a versatile piece of fabric, sewn in cylindrical configuration to slide down over the head, and designed to protect the wearer’s neck and face from sun, cold or wind exposure, and has adapted wonderfully as an alternative to the regular face mask in offering protection against airborne pathogens, including the coronavirus.
The elastic band sewn into the top of the cylinder sewn fabric ensures a snug fit around the wearer’s face, covering the mouth and nose for airborne pathogen protection without requiring bands to fit over the ears to keep it in position. This allows for an easy one-hand “pull-up” or “pull down” maneuver for convenience of use and eliminates the potential discomfort to the ears that can be caused by ear bands.
In its traditional use, whether it be during hot or cold sunny days, the gaiter protects the wearer from ultraviolet light and its potentially harmful effects to your skin, reducing both skin cancer risk (UVB) and skin aging acceleration (UVA). As a protection against cold, the gaiter provides a protective barrier helping the wearer stay warm. It also provides a protective barrier against wind burned skin.
The Style and Versatility of the Neck Gaiter
So, whether you are using the gaiter as a protection against the coronavirus, as a shield against direct sun light, reflected sun light (snow, water, sand), cold or wind exposure, the versatile neck gaiter serves as a multifaceted protective covering for your respiratory system or skin. This helps explain its rapid growth in popularity, not only a protective covering, but as an apparel item to reflect a theme, a cause, a style, or simply a like of yours.
