I love this scarf. It's warm, soft, and breathable. Just as importantly, it's wide and extra-long. Almost a foot longer than most scarves I've encountered. The breathability and extra length means that you can entirely wrap your face with it, and have it be long enough to stay secure, when protection from wind and cold is more important that style. As someone who cycles through the winter in upstate New York, that facial protection is very important and something that most other scarves have failed at. The Warden scarf has entirely replaced the various balaclavas and face masks I've used in the past. It keeps my face warm down below -10F.
If you spend a lot of time in colder climates, I recommend picking one up.
Merino has a unique ability to regulate body temperature. During exertion or warm weather, it wicks away moisture from your body and releases it on the surface. This evaporation mechanism has a cooling effect, enhancing comfort while keeping you dry. To help you stay warm in cold weather, the air pockets in the Merino fibers trap body heat to provide insulation. This adaptive capability makes merino wool garments highly flexible, which is critical if you need to count on a small set of gear to handle unpredictable conditions. Merino is also naturally fire retardant and odor resistant, providing a measure of assurance when outdoors or in the field.
