Zpacks x Glacial Gear wol trail rag

The 180 gsm merino is noticeably denser than my other rags, so it actually holds warmth without that scratchy feel. Tossed it in a river on a hot day and it dried fast enough to use again before camp.

I’ve been wearing this trail rag on chilly morning hikes and the Hydro-Duct wool really wicks sweat without getting stinky. The fit is trim enough to layer under a shell without bunching up. It’s quickly become my go-to for fast-moving days.

The 180 gsm weight is perfect—it’s barely there in my pack but still blocks the wind when I pull it up over my ears. I’ve worn it three days straight on a wet trip and it never felt clammy, which is more than I can say for my old synthetic buff.
