Best $7 cold-weather purchase I've madei was skeptical that a $7 surplus scarf could hold up to real use, but this thing has completely won me over. I work outside doing utility maintenance in the midwest and neck coverage is serious business from November through March. Been wearing this twice a week for going on three months now and it still looks basically new no pilling, no unraveling at the edges, seams are still tight. The 100% wool construction is no joke either; even on the days where i'm sweating from the work and then standing still in the wind, it keeps insulating in a way my old synthetic neck gaiter just couldn't. I had a Swiss Army Wool Neck Roll before this and while that one's decent, the Swedish scarf sits noticeably warmer and layers better inside my jacket collar without bunching up. One thing i'll say it was pretty scratchy right out of the package, kind of like raw wool always is, but after two machine washes on cold it softened up considerably. Small price to pay for genuine military-issue wool at this price point.
Genuine wool insulates even when damp or sweaty
Noticeably scratchy until you wash it a couple of times

Softer than my issued one, weirdlyHad shemaghs in the sandbox back in '91, still use them for everything. Saw this Swedish one and figured I'd compare to my old ones. This thing is actually softer right out of the package than any military shemagh I've handled. Usually they're like sandpaper until you wash them ten times. The weave is tight, not that loose gauzy stuff that snags on everything. Swedish pattern is subtle, kinda grey-green, doesn't scream "tactical" which I appreciate for everyday wear. Washed it once in hot water to shrink it slightly came out fine, minimal bleeding. Already using it as my motorcycle neck gaiter for cool mornings. For 7 bucks I'm probably buying two more.
Soft immediately, no break-in required
Tight weave, won't snag on VelcroColor is more grey than green in person

Effective and versitileOne size fits all, can be washed repeatedly and works. I have purchased a total of four with an eye for at least two more!
Works and feels great.

a warm neck is a happy neckWhy can't I resist Swedish Stuff? Is/was it Anita Eckburg? My private Idaho is a sub-zero La Dolce Vita in this knit wonder. This rounds out the Swedish kit... now if I could just get one of the Swedish winter hats in my size (to fit over my halo, of course).

Great product.Really nice to have in cold weather. I brought it skiing once and it was great for the cold wind. Mine was a little scratchy at times, but it gets better after being washed. Good value for 5 bucks.
