NXN (northxnorth) Merino Wool -Mantis Outdoors

Description

This my opinion is a amazing product. I tested this kerchief out all Winter long and was thoroughly impressed. Controlling core body temperature is one of if not the most important priorities when you are outdoors. What we choose to leave the house with what we choose to put on our bodies is extremely important this can add a level protection in the Winter or even in the summer keeping you warm and cool depending on the use of the product
