It's perfect for Canadian winter. It's warm and light weight. Definitely better than scarfs or mufflers. Can even use it to cover the nose and ears. Seals in perfectly with no chance of cold air getting in from anywhere.
Per un freddo medio, diciamo cittadino, questo copricollo è sostanzialmente perfetto, mai fastidioso; protegge senza far sudare. Arcteryx è la formula 1 del capo tecnico.
Best Gaitor I have ever used; and I have many. Not only is it fashionably superior, and well made (I suggest you buy the beanie to complete it as a set), but it is thin and yet incredibly warm still based on the wool materials used. I thought it may itch, but it does not. I use it all the time for work outside. Just don't over-heat in dryer. The logo stitching is well done as well. Price could be better, but I'll sacrifice to get it..
