A merino or synthetic gaiter is more useful than a cotton bandana that stays wet. Pull it over your ears in camp. It is not insulation for a winter ridge. Wash it. Sunscreen plus a gaiter beats sunscreen dripping into your eyes.

Who should buy it. Most three-season kits.

Best for. Sun, dust, and a light warm layer

Standout limitation. Not a balaclava for a blizzard
