covie Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Sportsmans warehouse does buffs as well as the first ascent version of a buff, however i find the first ascent ones work better at actually retaining sweat that the proper buff. and its half the price.
Seeker911 Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 I get claustrophobic just thinking of wearing a buff kinda reminds me of my swim cap YUK

TNT1 Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Ya man, but you're not supposed to wear a swimming cap on your bike! Hey, I reckon it would really help in winter.
AndreZA Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Ya man, but you're not supposed to wear a swimming cap on your bike! Then what are those things they wear over their feet?
The Saint Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Trappers Trading also sell them - personally I think they are just a normal piece of material and pretty much something you could make yourself for around 10 bucks.

That is what Anatomic tried. The seams gets in the way. They have to be seamless to be comfortable.

Just remember no cycling rain jacket is 100% water proof. It will keep you dryer then when you are without it but not 100% dry. This is because the material need to let sweat and hot air out. So if something can get out, it must be able to get in aswell. You will boil and sweat like crazy if you ride in a complete waterproof sheet of plastic. But you will loose weight.

Hairy Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 You can contact these guys below RE a specific pattern you might have seen and they will help you locate it at your nearest store. They are the importers, so they will not be able to supply you. You can speak to Christo and you can mention that Jerome passed on the details of his company. I have found their service in the past to be exceptionally good. http://www.adventureinc.co.za/ B.T.W.... Buffs are the best invention ever RegardsHairy
Shebeen Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 i seem to accumulate enough buffs from races. they're great sponsors. they are very versatile, which in turn means they're not the best at everything. if you're only going to be cycling with it, then i'd put my wallet on one of these rather:http://firstascent.co.za/product-details.php?prodid=797&catid=241&level=3
