KOOLGATOR Evaporative Cooling Neck Wrap – Reusable Neck Cooler with Long Lasting Relief During Hot Weather Activities, Sports, & Outdoor Work, Water Drops, 5 Pack

They actually work! Even in 100 degree Texas heat!Came 3 to a pack.Super easy to use.They keep my husband much cooler than those neck fans that don’t do anything but blow hot air.Doesn’t leave your shirt soaking wet.Flexible & Comfortable to wear around the neck.Exterior material feels a little like swimsuit material.The interior squishy stuff (cooling technology) stays pregnant with water for days.Drying them out takes awhile, BUT that is a positive because he’s not having to stop what he’s doing to go re-soak them.I pack one in a thermos with a lid until he’s ready to use it when it gets hot.Would buy these again!

This works great. I use it at the range were temperatures are always over 100 degrees in the summer. Soak in water for cooling. Freeze overnight for even better and longer cooling. I will be ordering another.

The only thing, and the reason I gave it four stars instead of five, is there’s nothing to keep the beads evenly distributed throughout the band. I’m going to add some stitches to create pockets and keep some of the beads at the back of my neck. That may be something the brand can do to improve the design. Put an equal amount of beads in like four pockets. Otherwise I think it’ll work for what I need it for, my body can’t regulate its temperature so I get too hot just doing normal activity inside the home so wearing it while cooking will help. It already helped me drive an hour on 105 degree heat with a poorly AC. I like that’s it cloth so it doesn’t get too cold on the skin and/or cause ice burns. I like that you just have to soak it and not wait for it to freeze. That’ll be helpful for lake and river day or beach days. I might even try to sleep with it and see if it helps cool me down at night.

I now have a mixed reveiw. Some things I love about this. But other not so much. So, I have updaed my review.At First...I Wrote: love this Neck Cooling Wrap.... The cooling Beads truely fill up the wrap-band. Please note that when you receive this neck wrap it will look like there are very few beads. These beads WILL swell to fill the wrap. The neck band is rather long in length to fit a thick neck. I have a small neck so, the wrap does hang down my chest a little aways. I can move it to widen out to my shoulders or even hang the extra to the back. It stays in place real well. I dont mind this as the whole wrap has beads with cooling action. This wrap has a snap closure instead of long fabric ends to tie together. I like both kinds of closure. This snap wrap looks less like I am a boy scout, so I think this kind scores more for the none-camping look. I will have to see over time weather the snap will start failing or not.Now after 2 months of use.... Im not totally happy with it. The Snap stopped working. So, it slips around and falls off when I end over. I now safety pin it closed. I had another issue that was my fault. I left it in a ziplock bag for several days and it smelled horrible. It took 5 washes with liquid soap to get enough of the oder out so I could stand wearing it again. The other tie neckwarps have not soared like this in that same time frame. So I am disapointed a bit. But, now that I know I wont do that again. I do love the plumper amount of gell in this neck wrap. And that it does not have the extra tie cloth hanging onto my tops getting it wet down my chest. Yes, the neck of my tops do get damp with this one.When I take it off I put it in a plastic zip-bag and toss it in my purse. I have it ready and avallible anytime I need it. I went out shopping and started to over heat and grabbed it. I was not near any water and put it on without re-freshing it.... ahhh, relief. It had been over 18 hours since I re-freshed it with water and it still helped cool me.Note... Do not leave it in a ziplock bag for more then 24 hours... AND...Before packing it away for the winter, make sure the wrap is dried FULLY!!

The basic idea of a water-activated, reusable cooling method is a good one. Follow the directions and you will indeed get some cooling relief for a time. Unfortunately, the small neck wrap warms up quickly from body heat and and the cooling effect from the beads inside is quickly dissipated. Not useful beyond about 45 minutes in hot summer weather. In addition, this neck wrap gets VERY sweaty (and possibly dirt-covered) when wearing it to garden, mow, do other yardwork, sports, etc. You really need to be able to handwash such a thing; who wants a sweaty/crusty neckerchief? The only problem is that the neck wrap this takes DAYS if not WEEKS to dry out after being handwashed washed and hung up. You don't really want to store it away when wet, so the only recourse is to leave these damp, floppy tubes hanging over a towel rod or over a doorknob (or on a drying rack in front of a fan) until they are dry enough to put away. (Rather unsightly.) I think your best bet-- rather than purchasing this item-- is a cooling ice-pack style neck wrap that you can hand wash-- one that dries quickly and can be kept in the fridge or freezer between uses. This is the solution I eventually went for; it lasts longer and is far more effective and practical.

I purchased the KOOLGATOR Evaporative Cooling Neck Wrap for my 7-year-old son who plays Little League, and it’s been a game-changer—especially during the intense summer heat of All-Star tournaments in California’s valley region.The wrap is easy to activate, reusable, and provided long-lasting relief throughout long days on the field. It stayed comfortably cool around his neck and helped him stay refreshed and focused between innings.The lightweight fabric and gray color make it both practical and neutral, and it packs easily into a gear bag or cooler.If you have a child involved in outdoor sports during hot weather, this is a simple but highly effective solution to beat the heat. We used it regularly this summer and were very pleased with how well it performed. Highly recommended.

It really does work. I have bought similar products but by far the best
