I tested it in the Croatian mountains at 35°C. Average cooling properties. The water evaporates quickly and needs to be replenished. When you carry a limited amount of water, it's better to drink than to cool with this scarf.
BCB Neck Cooling Scarf Khaki Protective Cooling Scarf
Compact cooling scarf in khaki, manufactured by the British brand BCB International.
how to use
For optimal cooling, immerse the scarf in clean water for approximately 15-25 minutes. The polycrystals inside will absorb and hold a significant volume of water, then gradually release moisture to maintain a cooling sensation.
When placed in the refrigerator after soaking, the scarf delivers an intensified cooling effect. Alternatively, heat in a microwave using 30-second intervals, and it functions as a heat pack.
Made from biodegradable material
A completely saturated scarf can take up to three days to dry. Designed for repeated use, the scarf is crafted from non-toxic, safe, and biodegradable materials.

Very good product. Perfect for hot summer. After soaking in water, it's worth keeping them in the fridge to make them last longer :) The material is also high quality.
-
These scarves stand out for their high quality of workmanship, ensuring long-lasting and effective cooling. I use them regularly at work, which, although it may seem unusual, works great. I fully recommend them for use.
-
It works as it should :) After being hydrated, it turns into a kind of sausage and holds water quite a long time. In the heat it helps a bit, but really the effect is there if you chill it in the fridge :) The only minus, probably for some a big one, is after filling it's, well, you could say a bit sticky to the touch.

I bought this scarf for the second time because unfortunately I left the first one at work (stage work. Every week in a different city). I recommend it to everyone who works in the heat. I used it for years and it always provided pleasant cool in the highest temperatures.
-
Indeed, the scarf accumulates water in the crystals and turns into a 'sausage' when wrapped around the neck. It brings minimal relief, but in hot days the cooling is not particularly noticeable.
-
The purchase met my expectations in terms of functionality. As described. Excellent workmanship for this price.
-
At first glance, the quality seems good. I haven't had a chance to try it yet.
-
It works as intended. Perfect for the heat!
-
It fulfills its function, unfortunately it leaves a kind of sticky residue on the neck.
-
It works as described. An additional advantage is the loops, which allow you to wrap it around your whole neck. I recommend it.
-
Strange but very interesting
-
Such a dry opinion after receiving it does not reflect its properties. I will test it during hiking and write more. For now, it has been soaked and is being checked in room conditions on a treadmill and it performs well.
-
Well, for now the temperature doesn't require it, so I've only tested it at home. It looks fairly solid, a small minus for aesthetics, which the manufacturer could improve. I recommend it.
-
It absorbs a lot of water and releases it slowly.
