What is Neck Gaiter? A tube of fabric worn around the neck that can be pulled up over the lower face.
A neck gaiter is a versatile cold-weather accessory — a tube of stretchy fabric (often fleece or merino) worn around the neck. It can be pulled up over the chin, mouth, and nose when wind picks up, then dropped back down when it warms up. Safer than a scarf for active use (no loose ends to catch) and a substitute for a balaclava in moderate cold.
