I think the very best piece of cold weather gear I have are neck gaitors..a friend, who owns Curve cycle clothing, can design and make paceline themed 'pandana's. Picture below. $ would be in the $13-$14 range..any interest? Design is wide open.

Yeah, I could use another.

Can't ride in winter weather without a neck gaiter.

Henrik's Pandanas are great. Wear my team colored one on tons of rides.

I have a balaclava that I wear in the winter...and most of the time I wear it as a neck gator. They work!

I spent a year in Madrid where cyclists wear neck gaiters if the mercury dips below 65. A good piece of kit.

I wear one all the time in cool weather and could use a new one.

Before this horse gets too far out of the barn....

OP, please check your PMs

As a general rule of thumb , ANY Paceline branded items need to be cleared with the mods before announcing and/or selling such items.

Reasons are pretty simple:
1- It is “our” brand
2- We will generally only agree to appropriate items
3- We would hope a small portion of sales would help fund this place

This was the case with past items such as the kit, the socks, wool jerseys and jackets, headset caps, etc

I will probably be in on this one too, when it happens

I’d be a buyer if the design isn’t bad.

+1 on neck gaiters. They're great, especially for us long-neckers. (I swear, half my height is from a long neck.) Different materials make them useful in lots of weather conditions. A lightweight one is great to have for cool weather and wool blends are great for winter.

Their socks look nice too. I see they use Merino and polypropylene, which is a near ideal composition. Most cycling socks use cheaper synthetics, especially when combined with wool. There is no better wicking fabric than polypropylene, and merino is definitely one of the better insulator and regulation fabrics.

I Have a Vecchio's-branded Curve Pandan, and it's a good piece of gear. I'm slightly more a fan of the Weatherneck (https://theweatherneck.com/) (developed, manufactured and distributed by a local Appleton rider who also developed the FixIt Sticks) for the versatility in taking the face-masking portion on or off. Twice the price, but includes a great hat too. (Sheesh, I hope I don't sound like I'm shilling for them as I've commented on this piece in a number of threads recently -- just a good product on topic for the conversations.)

I'd pickup another Pandana depending on the graphics.

Neither the curve link or weatherneck link had any easy to find description of what the fabric is--or maybe i am just an idiot today. I've been meaning to get a merino wool neck warmer because after climbing up and having my sweat chill me going down, my cervical radiculopathy gets worse.

Hi Folks. Henrik here with Pandana. The fabric is Polyester microfiber with sublimated graphics. www.pandanausa.com I'll let you know if something happens. Thanks!
