UPF 50+ UV Protection
First and foremost, the Del Mar neck gaiter safely protects your skin from damaging UV rays. Our neck gaiter has the highest possible UV protection rating, UPF 50+. This is based on the U.S. testing standard for sun protective fabrics, AATCC Test Method 183. This means it blocks more than 98% of the sun’s ultraviolet light. In effect, wearing our Del Mar UPF gaiter is like having constant SPF 50 sunscreen, minus the smell, greasy feeling and frequent reapplications.
Lightweight & Breathable
Our UPF 50+ neck gaiter features a lightweight blend of polyester (87%) and spandex (13%). A major advantage of polyester in this application is weight reduction and breathability. This fabric pulls moisture, like sweat, away from your skin to quickly evaporate. This exchange of moisture and air keeps you comfortable in a range of weather conditions, cooling in the summer and warming in the winter. Additionally, our neck gaiter’s fabric is extremely soft and breathable, as one needs for something worn over the mouth.
One Size Fits All
We carefully chose our Del Mar neck gaiter’s dimensions to maximize protection, performance and fit. Its 16” length makes several wearable styles possible. Any longer would leave too much fabric for your neck, but any shorter and a balaclava style wouldn’t be possible. The 9.5” width is equally intentional, as this determines how well the neck gaiter fits around your head and neck. This width, paired with the fabric’s flexibility and stretch, provides a secure, but unrestrictive fit.

Feels great to have a little extra protection from the sun while also being able to cover up your nose and mouth! These gaiters look great whether it’s just hanging around your neck or being used as a mask. Perfect fit and a stylish way to stay safe!

The pink gaitor is perfect for me. The fit is great, whether it is pulled up on my face or simply around my neck. Added bonus to the pink gaitor, is it is bright enough to use in case of trouble while out on adventures!

Great neck gaiters! Recently got four for use at a construction site and for working in the yard. These are lightweight neck gaiters ideal for outdoor hot weather use, and they’re thin enough that you can stash it in your pocket when not using it. Highly recommended!
