Look what I just bought

It’s a slim fit buff. Look what youve all done to me. I have an ever expanding wardrobe of strange apparel. This is useful, because my beanie has been making my head sweat and is too bulky to put in the pocket of my running jacket when I get hot.

I can see how buff addiction could strike. You do realise ive had to give over a whole drawer of a large Victorian dressing table to all my running gear...

What is a buff? Not up on the running lingo yet! It looks nice whatever it is! I'm guessing it's for your neck? I only have bought a running hat, gloves, top, leggings and shoes and I usually just wear an old hoody when it's cold. Do I need a buff?

in reply to Sparky1960

It can be a beanie, a neck warmer, a wrist strap, a sling, a head band and anything else you can think of. It’s a tube shape.i didnt think I needed one, but my beanie makes my head sweat and is too bulky to stow in a pocket.
