Neck tubes for bikers.

Hiya, My husband who has severe COPD uses those neck tubes bikers wear to keep their necks warm, as they can be pulled up easily over the mouth and nose to help with going from warm air to cold air. Anyway, they are offering them free on this site, so thought I would mention it, as might help others

He looks like a robber when going out, but worth it if it helps with his breathing :)

Haha, as a female (& ex biker) I get some funny looks but what the hell.

Many here use a Buff. Same thing, I'm sure someone will put a link up soon. Mines 100% fine Merino wool, I only wear natural fibres. Look like a woman of another religion when it's cold, damp & windy :) but by golly what a difference it makes to keeping infections at bay - I pull it up on The Tube to avoid germs too

Cheers Gocat I was just looking at them on ebay last week. I've just place my order on the link you posted....It will make a change from going into my local bank with a woolly hat and scarf on and getting strange looks??? PS the ones I was looking at had skeletal features painted on them ?

Buff's .... they're brilliant. I'd never be without one .... worn them for decades.

Great for just keeping the chill out & even better for pulling up over the mouth to warm-up the cold winter air as you breath.

Decent biker shops & walking shops do them .... & of course, plenty on eBay & Amazon.

I've even converted my consultant to get one to wear when shes out walking the dog ......

Not what you're looking for?
