Original Turtle Fur Fleece - The Turtle's Neck, Heavyweight Neck Warmer

Terrible quality! We bought it for my kid before our ski trip. When we hand washed it before first wear, the dye came out and it also dyed my sink :-( As the result, we didn’t use it at all and ended up buying another brand at ski place.

The attached photo shows the pilling and shedding of the surface of a Turtle Fur neck warmer that I wore about 8 times. As you can see, the fibers on the surface (which give it the unusually soft feel) have come loose and are forming something like lint on the surface of the fabric. When I take the neck warmer off, balls of the lint cling to my face. I am still using the neck warmer, which is soft and comfortable, but I am using my fingers to pull the clumps of fibers from the surface, so they are not itchy and do not come off on my clothing and face. Knowing what I now know, I would not have purchased this neck warmer. I also bought a similar neck warmer sold by Carhartt, which is the same size, but it is less expensive and the fabric does not shed like this; initially, it does not feel as luxurious, but in the long run, I prefer it.

The first week using it was great. However, I began to notice a few issues with the fabric being used.Pros:It is super stretchy, therefore it wont ruin the hair too much.It is very warm and keeps the blustery wind outIt is long so you can cover you neck and half your face at the same timeCons:The problem is when it covers half your face and mouthStrands of fabric end up in your face - very fine strands of clothIf your lips are dry as they usually are during the winter, these little strands will stick to your lips and rip your lip's skin off.Overall, it is a function piece of winter gear, but just use it as scarf and not a face cover.

It's tight on your face, really hard to breath comfortably. Therefore, the warm breath mixing with the cold air will make it damp & cold at my mouth. As well, brought the same color hat, navy, and there is a significant noticable color difference so they look terrible next to each other. It is soft though, so there's that.Update to my review, I washed this as another review recommend and WHAT A PIECE OF JUNK. It's now pilled and looks terribly worn, like it's 200 years old and been in shallow grave. WHAT A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT.

I loved the first Turtle's Neck I bought so much that I bought a bunch more...and was immediately disappointed because the fit of each one is different. So while they all use the same great, soft, and very warm fabric, how comfortable each is to wear depends on the cut of each.

Let me start off by at least stating that this is a really warm garment, so it definitely succeeds on that front. The reason I am rating only three stars is because of the excessive pilling and shedding that at least the orange colored version has done, even after washing. It's so bad and clings to absolutely everything that it actually discourages me from wearing it, which is a shame, because I really do appreciate how warm it keeps my face while sleeping in my hammock in the winter. I'm curious as to whether a different color might not show or even shed as much.

I got this as an alternative to a scarf to help keep my face from freezing in frigid weather. Scarves always fall down but this will stay over the lower part of your face. I purchased the cream color because of the inevitable mucous that accumulates when covering your nose in cold weather :/ I'm glad I got this.

Extreme Alaskan Living!! Love the turtle fur neck warmer. Snow machining long distances in cold weather(-10f) you need the double layer. The outer layer gets frosted but the inner stays dry.

I needed a breathable neck covering to keep me warm whilst Nordic Walking. I bought this because it was described as breathable and was on special offer. I have been pleased with my purchase, it keeps the wind off my neck and as described it is breathable. It has allowed me to be out walking on really chilly days and be comfortable. So pleased that I ordered another in a different colour. They wash well and dry overnight just being hung on a hanger near a radiator.

I bought this item for my husband , & he is delighted with it , its a snug fit very soft &warm he particularly wanted red this is a lovely colour not too red for a man ! It arrived very promptly well packed I would recommend this item .

Love it! Great colour, such soft warm fleece, fits easily over my head no panic attack I'm going to be stuck! (Sadly I'm not slim-like food too much!)I've worn it for a hill walk, around town and just walking the dog and haven't felt cold with it on once really nice and good value.

Far more practical than a scarf but found the cheap fleece material frayed and bobbled with very little use.

Very warm and comfortable. Only issue is the tag tends to scratch my neck. It's a small problem though.

Nice tight fit kept me warm skiing and i still use it back at home, couldn't ask for anything more

Product excellent at a great price but charged £16.20 Shipping frm U.S.after complaint this was reduced to £8 still very expensive but I suppose my fault won't make that mistake again

Excellent, extremely soft and warm

Really warm and good quality.

Very good

Had one for years until I lost it on the ski slope. Great bit of kit and would definitely recommend it to anyone.

This is a good item, I have emphysema and this helps me warm the cold air so I can breath outside in the winter. It is a little tight for me, I'm 6'2" but that's ok. I just wish it was longer down the front to cover some of the chest so I could do without a scarf.

After trying it on my head face and neck were covered in fuzz, decided to wash it before wearing it and the material pilled and now looks horrible. I don't recommend this product for men with facial stubble.The picture was taken of the item right out of the wash, hasn't even been worn yet.

Muy buen producto de buena calidad y con excelente protección para el frío, cómodo, fácil de usar y sin producir picazón. El envío fue rapidísimo, vendedor serio y recomendable al 100%

Bought this last year as well. Works really well to keep my neck warm when riding and can pull it up to my nose when its really cold to protect my face.. However, little bits of fluff keep coming out of it is it may not last along time.
