Necking

If you've been following this blog from the beginning, you have heard of Outdoor Technology. They're back today as part of our Ski Season '10/'11 mini-series. I don't know about all of you, but over the years I have gotten tired of the traditional boring, black neckwarmers. During spring skiing, going without is definitely an option, but the stakes are upped a little bit when you're trying to go out on during January when the wind chill drops the temperature to -15. This Cali company has developed a sensible solution: the Arctic Yowie. How it works- it is longer than a normal 'warmer, so you fold up the patterned bit so that it covers up the warm fleece bottom. The result is good looking neck protection without looking like a fool by wearing one of those fake bandanas. If you want to go out on more of a limb fashion wise, wear it as a hat. You'll definitely get some looks. Check out the Arctic Yowie and the rest of the OT gear at their online store. Do so soon, as they are in the middle of some holiday promotions. Fan them on facebook for more info on promo codes etc.
