ExOfficio BugsAway Impervio Neck Gaiter (Tough)

ExOfficio BugsAway® garments are treated with InsectShield®, giving you invisible, odorless protection against biting insects such as mosquitoes, ticks, ants that can transmit insect-borne diseases such as Malaria, Zika, Lyme, Dengue etc.

This BugsAway Impervio Neck Gaiter is one of those products that might make you wonder why anyone would need it. Well, it keeps away bugs obviously but also protects against harmful UV rays – e.g. your neck on a hike - wind & dust or cold – e.g. air-plane airco.

You can even wear it as a faux sleeping mask when tropic sunrise comes a bit too early.

And a stylish accesssory too – like a cool bandana or small infinity scarf – that can be tucked away easily in a little pocket of your shirt/ short.
