I used the "useless" search function to no avail, so if this is a dead horse subject please excuse me and go on to something else.

I am thinking about purchasing a couple of these and would like to know if anyone on here has one or more and whether you like it or not. Is there anything particular I should look for or be aware of other than it should be 100% cotton.

Thanks in advance

Jim

There are many ways to use it and I think it will come in very handy for many purposes. Mine is dark green with black and I expect I'll get a couple more as I run across them.

Good for everything from a hanky to a sling to a pillow. Essential part of my BOB. Oh yeah, inner city gangbangers dont wear them.

I keep one in my vehicle, use a head covering / neck and face scarf,wrap around waste with gear stowed in wrap, wet and use for breathing mask, strain water through, arm sling. Like USCGME2 stated bandana on steroids. I recommend staying away from the cheap ones, a decnt one will cost you around $15-$20
