HOME MADE CUSTOM NECK WARMER - Go to a saddle shop or leather shop and get a piece of nice thick leather finished on one side and suede on the other. Suede goes on your skin. Hold it up to your face in the mirror and mark where you want it cut,use sharp siccors. Trim to suite whether over the nose or like I did over the chin. I wear a full face helmet when it is cold so there is no need to cover my nose. I also bought the helmet slightly large so I could wear a ski mask under it. Nose section cut out. Some helmets will stretch bigger after you wear a mask or toboggan so beware. Wall Mart $1.50. Go to the crafts section and buy some Industrial Velcro. $5.99 Wallyworld. You should not have to pay more than $5 for a 12X12 piece of scrap leather, thick as a top notch leather jacket. You will feel like it is 10 degrees warmer with this on. CBX man has them if you do not want to mess with making it. But I did not want one to cover my nose. Also when it is custom made for you, it fits and feels much better. A little bit of talent required. Enjoy! David.

I got a neck warmer from VA Trader Ebay store.... they have lots of other biking duds, goggles, etc. It will fit over my nose, barely.... but I just wear it over my chin. Over the nose fogs up the glasses unless I quit breathing. I wear a face shield also(in addition to my windshield), so don't need it over my nose.

Such a thing would be Politically Incorrect we don't do that here. Now I am going to go clean my gun, cook some supper fried in Trans Fat all while smoking. Later I have to take the SUV to the store 200yds down the road to get more beer so I can watch Fox News then say my prayers and go to bed.

LOL, Aaron. Just for the record, the CBXMAN warmer can go around your neck only or your nose (as long as you aren't telling lies). It is one of my most treasured accessories (gifted to me by the MAN himself). Highly recommended.

yeah I made a homemade neckwarmer too. I used a folded bandana as a pattern and sewed up a piece of faux suede and fleece together and sewed on a piece of velcro on the ends so I can fasten it in the back of the head as needed.
