Buff UV Headwear

Disclaimer: I received a UV Buff to review as part of being a BibRave Pro. Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador), and check out BibRave.com to review find and write race reviews!
Now after years of destroying my huge collection of baseball hats due to overuse and basic sweating/washing/drying, I thought I’d give one of the Buffs a shot as many of my fellow BibRavePros have been extremely positive in their reviews of them. Many of them were female and I thought deeply if this was really for me. I never really knew what a Buff was and the many ways it can be worn by moth men and women alike. I watched a video on the buff and realized that this thing is pretty darn cool and versatile. I pretty much live outside and do the usual outdoor activities like running, biking, hiking, etc. There are way too many times that I have burnt my neck or forehead as I’m usually pretty bad about using any sort of sunscreen.
So what is a Buff? Simply put, it’s a tubular headwear that can be morphed into a dozen or so ways to wear it!
I pretty much wear my Buff like a headband and so far, I’m liking that I can keep the sweat out of my eyes and face and it gives me the much needed time away from baseball hats considering I’ve been wearing one since I was a kid. I know that this summer when I’m out working or doing some sort of physical activity outside in the sun, that I will be wearing this and protecting my skin and neck with a UV Buff. Did you know that the UV Buff can block up to 95% of the suns harmful rays?
It took me a few tries to roll it just right to get the different ways to wear it and after watching the company YouTube video, it’s now second nature. What a versatile piece of headwear! The website has tons of color choices and other Buff gear you can check out here. I opted for the DY Brookie Flank UV Buff. It’s extremely colorful and I’m just a huge fan of the multi-colored species of fish. The price on these Buffs is $25 and well worth it to protect your skin.
