Rothco Trainman Purple Paisley Bandanna

Classic Paisley Bandanna

The Rothco Trainman Purple Paisley Bandanna is a square of cotton printed in the traditional trainman style, the busy paisley pattern long tied to railroad workers. Use it as a sweat rag on the range, a dust cover over your nose and mouth on a dirt road, a headband under a cap, or a neckerchief. It folds small enough to live in a pocket, pack or glovebox.

Features

• Cotton Fabric — Cotton absorbs sweat and breathes, which suits a bandanna worn against the skin in hot weather.
• Purple Base Color — The field is a solid mid-purple, a change from the usual red, navy and black options.
• Trainman Paisley Print — White paisley teardrops with dark purple accents cover the whole square in the classic railroad bandanna layout.
• Center Medallion — A starburst flower sits in the middle, ringed by small scattered motifs and a scalloped inner border.
• Decorated Corners and Border — Large paisley sprays fill each corner, and a narrow band of small teardrops frames the outer edge.
• Square Format — The square shape folds into a triangle for face or neck wear, or rolls into a band for the head or wrist.
• Multi-Use Carry Item — It works as a sweatband, dust mask, neck cover, hair tie or general-purpose cloth.
• Rothco Brand — Made by Rothco, a long-running supplier of military-style and outdoor gear.

Fabric and Everyday Use

Cotton is the traditional bandanna material because it soaks up moisture, dries in the open air and softens with washing. The white print stands out clearly against the purple, so the pattern reads well whether you wear it folded at the neck or tied over your hair. It is light enough to keep one in a range bag, hiking pack or vehicle without noticing the weight.
