Bandana in the sun?

<< < (2/2)

Semi-Sly:
I spend a lot of time in the sun.  In fact, I just came home from 10 days in Yuma, AZ and Mexicali, MX where it was 125 degrees.

I always wear sunscreen when I know that I am going to be out in the sun for more than than 15- 20 minutes straight.  I hate greasy anything, so I use Neutrogena sheer mist spray.  I love that stuff.  Goes on dry and stays on even when swimming.

When I am out on the bike I wear a biker bandana/skull cap.

When I am walking around in super hot temps I wear a Panama hat with a wide brim to prevent sunstroke. (your brain really can cook in the the 100+ degree temps you know!)

As a sly triathlete I'll second Halo brand stuff.  Very good.  Headsweats also makes a good wicking type bandanna.  They'll soak up the sweat really well too.

nick2401:
For the past 2 summers, I always carry a bandana/handkerchief in my pocket. Useful in a pinch if I am unexpectedly out in the sun, or if it is really hot and sweat starts to fall into my eye ditto with rain and the kerchief can be Macguyvered into several quick solutions (Dust mask, sling....)

A company called Buff USA makes bandannas and stretchy tube bandanna like products that have UV protection built into the fabric.
