Woks really well stays cool a good while

I work ouside on a very large lot these past few summers temps soaring past 100, and this works great to keep your head and neck out of the sun and keeps you cooler than many cooling towels that are out there today.

How much you like this towel is going to depend on how you use it and under what conditions... The ideal use is indoors, at home or in an office with no air conditioning. I got it for the Pacific Northwest heatwave and it's absolutely helping keep me cool working from home with no air conditioning. The cooling effect lasts 45 minutes to an hour before I need to rewet it. When I wear it outdoors in direct sunlight, it dries out in 15 minutes. If you're not under direct sunlight, you might get 30 minutes of cooling at best. So this might have some utility if you're going for a quick walk around the block, to get the mail, take out the trash, etc. Don't expect it to hold up for anything longer, like yard work or attending a baseball game. Is it overpriced? Sure. They're charging double what this product is ideally worth, given how useless it is for any kind of extended outdoor use. Even indoors, you need to avoid wearing a neck fan, as that will dry it out super-fast, as will wearing it too close to regular fans. And the whole "snapping" thing seems like a waste of time gimmick. I don't think it makes any difference... might as well yell, "Abracadabra!" for all the good it does. As pointed out in other reviews, the long tails (split design) will be a pain (and possibly dangerous) for anyone who frequently bends over while working. But if you work at a desk, you can just tuck the tails into your shirt and you'll be fine (plus it keeps your chest cooler). Don't get me wrong. This product has value. It's a good idea, but either the company cheaped out on the design or the technology isn't there yet to properly turn it into a hoodie. I'd give it 1 star for outdoor use, but 3.5 rounded up to 4 stars for indoor use. It works pretty good indoors--quite comfortable and pleasant to wear--but having to rewet it every 45 minutes to an hour is annoying. Still, glad I bought it for this heatwave, even if it is overpriced.

This really helped when my AC went out. As long as you have cold water, this will help to keep you cool. I didn’t really use it on my head. I put it around my neck and held it to my face and arms and legs.

It really does get cool and is a great upgrade from the basic cloth. I can wear it under my hat, feel cooled and shielded from the sun as I do yard work etc. When I get back from running the dog, he gets some shave ice & I wrap my head in this (just tie the long sections in a loose knot). Feels great! The cooling seems to last a decent amount of time, but that will depend on the humidity where you are. It's very dry here in southern Nevada. So, it feels super cool, but will dry faster. It works (cools) by evaporation... gotta expect the trade off.

Helps keep me cool In Texas heat

I got this for my man he works outside all day. He likes it it works good but it doesn't come together in the back so he has to tie it together and that sucks. But over it works great.

This hoodie is the best way to staying cooler 😎

Mide alrededor de 69cm de largo por 30cm de ancho, está hecho de una tela suave al tacto y de grosor similar a una microfibra para limpiar gafas, sin embargo es súper absorbente y retiene líquidos por bastante tiempo. Cumple con lo que promete, idealmente es empaparla de agua, exprimir lo mas posible y sacudir una o dos veces para ‘activar’ el efecto enfriador, teóricamente podria enfriar con el puro sudor absorbido pero no he podido verificar esto último. No luce tan cool como en la imagen pero si funciona como hoodie, posee una abertura que divide en 2 flaps (aletas/lengüetas/solapas) y que recaen sobre los hombros. Si no te molesta sentirte húmedo por el agua que retiene al usarle es ideal para estar fresco, también se templa a la temperatura del cuerpo con el que está en contacto, pero de nuevo, bastaría con sacudirla (snap it) para volver a activar su efecto enfriador. No se endurece como algunas chill towels al estar secas.

とても良いです。色々と似たような商品がありますがこれはかなり冷たいです。 酷暑日に使用したので暑さが軽減されました。 日焼け防止にも良いです。お値段はしますが買って良かったです。

Item was exactly as described and as expected.

Cloth actually gets cool, so I was impressed.

I got the hoodie and the towel at the same time and have ended up just using the hoodie so far. I run heavy equipment so I'm in a glass cab in the sun all day. I wear it instead of a hat and helps to keep me cool and shades me from the sun. I wear it without a shirt on so it feels pretty good and my shoulders and chest. My only complaint is that both the towel and hoodie came in unsealed containers and the hoodie was dirty. It was covered in hair from 3 different people and 2 different types of dog hair on it. Not impressed with that at all.
