If comfort and softness are your top priority when choosing a neck warmer for cold weather, the Luxe Pipe Dream is worth every penny. We found this buff so soft and comfortable that it is easy to forget you’re even wearing it.
It comes in grays and black (though you can order it directly from Backcountry in purple or green), making the buff versatile enough to match any attire. We love the stretchability, and the elastics are durable and high quality. Fit is standard, and we didn’t have any complaints of it being too loose or tight.
With its low bulk design, and ability to handle the cold, there isn’t much downside to this neck gaiter. It isn’t the most versatile for warm and sunny ski days, but it proves to be a standout option for most winter skiing. Come après, we forgot it was even there.
