    Yesterday I wore it balaclava style but I felt a bit like a bearded version of this chap...

    will be switching to one round the neck and another in skull cap configuration now I have multiple ones.

    Balaclava style if i need to cover my ears, other wise it just sits round my neck!

    cycling+ buff acquired. smug grin as it was the last copy in my local shop and I think someone else wanted it....sorry!! :lol:
    bonus is it's red (and white).

    I wear one round neck, one over head when it's chilly. really don't care if I look silly.
    EDIT: one round my neck is used to pull over chin/mouth/nose depending on chill factor

    I just wear mine round the neck, skull cap (or camp cap) keeps my head warm.

    It is possible to wear one buff round your neck/face and over your head at the same time, ninja style.

    Have a look on their website for loads of different ways to "configure" your buff.

    I go with round my neck when it's really cold. When it's really bastard cold, I pull the back up to the top of my head so it covers my ears, then hold it in place with a skull-cap. Can't stand breathing through them, though, no matter how cold it is, so the front is always under my chin.

    Ditto - except I use my helmet rather than a skull cap. I can't breathe through the buff whatever I try so it stays just on the chin.

    Round the neck with a skull cap on top. I have in the past worn it balaclava style but that was during a hail storm before I had the skull cap.

    Ps: mine is a genuine buff I paid real money for. More fool me.

    I've taken to wearing mine like a headband, to keep the wind out of my ears. Unfortunately, being a camou design, off the bike I look like a little kid trying to be rambo :cry:

    I don't like it over my nose or mouth at all, as I'm quite a fan of breathing oxygen ...
