Took this on a eco-fishing expedition to the Amazon forest. Wore this and the Buff brand version each day.
I felt like this was slightly thinner = cooler which I liked. It washed up great and seems as it will last a long time.
The Buff is great as well; the main difference being the Mission has hems on each end the Buff is just cut off.
This may make it more durable in the long run.
One slight criticism would be the hemming makes it slightly tighter at the top and bottom, this would periodically
allow the hem to work its way up over my cheek bone/nose and across my eyes and I would have to pull it down.
Under certain conditions having this hem may actually be beneficial.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend either brand.
This product is so damn impressive I just don't know if there's any negative comment I had for it. This product is suppose to keep you cool during a hot day when your working. By soaking it with water wrinkel out the water and snap it, the temperature went down to around 30 degree below average body temperature. Let me tell you how this is useful because working in a harsh condition especially in hot farm land can be hazardous. You have a risk of heat stroke and you get tired easily not to mention the intense workout will leave you to get mad easily. Being mad easily like this is not healthy for your body it could lead to heart disease or attack. So I think product not only keep your head cool but to reduce stress level which leads to healthier life style.
My husband loves. We first bought one at Lowes and after a year or so he lost.. we went back looking fir another one only to find out Lowes stopped carrying .. I found here on Amazon- ordered two this time .. he's half bald so when he's working out side he sweats a lot .. this helps keeps him cool and no dripping sweat... he's a believer.. also when we bicycle ride he wears under his helmet .. doesn't get stiff like some of the others we've used ...
This thing works. Soak it, wring it, pull it all the way up like a balaclava, and it really cools in the breeze. To be fair, it does dry out within an hour depending on temp/humidity, but it's so quickly recharged that it's hard to beat. A more coordinated rider might be able to squirt water from a pressurized hydration pack while moving. I'm tempted to wear it even dry as a combined helmet-liner and sunburn-preventer; I will certainly use it in the spring and fall as it'll help keep the wind off my neck.
The worst part about summer and/or exercise for me is the sweat dripping down my face. I like to really challenge myself but stopping to wring out a headband or wipe off my face with a towel really throws off my timing. And if it gets into my eyes... I'M DONE!
This head wrap is AWESOME! I soaked it in cold water and wore it this summer working outside. I soaked it in cold water and wore it while working out and it kept my head cooler and kept the sweat from dripping down my face.
I love it so much, I bought a bunch more!
I can't recommend this to enough people!

Description
Feel cool in this multi-functional performance fabric. The Enduracool Multi-Cool is made from a proprietary performance fabric that instantly cools when soaked with water, wrung out, and then snapped in the air to activate the cooling properties. Designed to be functional and versatile, the Multi-Cool can be worn in over 12 different ways to help you keep cool, and protect yourself from the sun's harmful rays. The proprietary technology works by absorbing moisture and perspiration into the fabric core where the unique radiator-like fiber construction circulates water molecules and regulates the rate of evaporation to create a prolonged cooling effect.
This made all of the difference on our 9 hour motorcycle ride through in 100 degree weather through Wyoming. We stopped every hour and a half to get them wet again, but keeping our necks cool helped keep us cooler. I am very happy with this purchase, and we would have been miserable without them. It also came with a reusable "sports bag", although a different one I purchased did not.
These are great! I now own 4 of these. I use them playing golf, yard working, hiking, camping, nearly any time it is hot, and in South Texas, it is hot most of the year. The reason I own 4 is so I can have them where I need them without having to remember where they are.
It is important to understand that you will have to re-wet them fairly often, the more heat you are dealing with, the more often you need to wet them down.
I don't know the science behind this material, but I assure you that it works! I moved from Maine to Mississippi, which is a major climate change, and I struggled adjusting to the heat. Wearing this cools me down almost instantly. I usually wear it as a headband, but it also works well around my neck. It's a must when doing yardwork or exercising. My only regret is that I didn't buy one sooner.
When dry, keeps my head/face warm when biking down to 35-40 degrees (in wind conditions as well). Also reduces my sweat substantially in the summer months. A win win.
this is my third one and i enjoy that it has two elastic bands on each side, keeps it positioned on my head nicely. i wear them just about every day at work to keep my hair out of the way and also keep my coworkers from complaining about my bad hair days everyday
