I use mine mostly as a hairband. It works well for that, and I love that I can just slide it down for a neck warmer, but I can't bring myself to buy one. Frankly, IMO, they're way overpriced, at least in these parts. Even the knock-offs are expensive. $20 buff (I've seen them as high as $40 for a polar one) vs $3 bandana? I'll buy a bandana, thanks. In the meanwhile, I'll use these two buffs until they wear out, and try to figure out a cheapo DIY alternative, or just keep on using my trusty bandanas.
