cool but doesn't dry out!
This keeps me very cool playing golf but doesn't dry out and is starting to smell even though I wash it.

Disappointed
This bandana has only about a third as much gel as it needs, and the gel clumps up in one small space. Didn't work for me. Maybe they changed the product since the other reviews.

great stuff !!!!
I gave these to my Mom, shes a golfer in Palm Desert, CA. Very hot weather, she is very pleased with the product.

Keeping Cool All Day!
I ordered 4 of these "cool" bandanas and am staying and looking cool. They really work! We had an Indian Summer day here in Maine this week, and I wore mine while I was raking leaves. No sweat--literally!! I'm giving the others to family as stocking stuffers. I can't wait for warm weather so I can wear mine when I exercise outdoors, but I am already wearing it indoors and "keepin' cool." Great product.

What a difference the Cool Bandana has made!!!
My husband works in a hot factory, has asthma, and doesn't sweat so up until now he's absolutely DREADED the summer months because he knew he was in for 3+ months of misery, headaches, no appetite, and the constant worry of suffering heat prostration as he has several times in the past. This is the FIRST summer that he's been able to work in 95+ outside (MUCH hotter in the factory) temperatures and not have to deal with a splitting headache, or an upset stomach!! He now comes home with an EMPTY lunch bucket, and isn't physically drained! In addition he discovered that somehow the bandana has made it easier for him to breathe as well...we haven't figured that one out yet, but what a plus for a person suffering from asthma! Quite a few of the guys at work have been asking him about the Cool Bandana and one man, with only 30% use of his lungs, is going to try one after my husband shared with him how the Bandana helps him breathe easier in the heat.

I chose the Cool Bandana because my husband has a fairly small neck, and with working in a factory one has to be careful not to get one so large that there is a risk of catching the ends in a machine. If you have a larger neck, you may need to look for a longer one. My husband wears a medium size shirt and the Cool Bandana is long enough to meet in the front when tied.

As an added note, on the first use we soaked the bandana for 15 minutes and after that we didn't need to soak it as long...somewhere around 5 to 10 minutes, depending on how much it dried out and how much one wants the bandana to swell. My husband also discovered that if he put his bandana on 30-45 minutes before heading out into the heat, his body adjusts much quicker once in the heat. So, if you want a way to keep cool this summer, get one these Cool Bandanas!!! They are a quality product, last all day, and I received my order in a timely manner. Thank you Texas Medical!!
