GOREWEAR

Essence Light Neckwarmer

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This thing lives in my cycling kit during shoulder season—it’s featherlight, dries quickly, and doesn’t feel bulky under a helmet or jacket collar. It’s a small piece that makes a big difference when the wind kicks in."

Designed for endurance athletes who don’t slow down when the temps drop, the GOREWEAR Essence Light Neckwarmer is a minimalist yet essential piece for cool-weather performance. Made from a soft, breathable polyester-elastane blend, it wicks moisture and blocks wind without overheating—making it ideal for everything from brisk morning rides to late-season trail runs.

Its stretch construction adapts easily to a range of uses: as a neck gaiter, face wrap, or headband. Despite weighing just 1.5 ounces, it delivers reliable protection and comfort, and its compact size means it fits easily in a jersey pocket or vest when the temps rise.

Streamlined, breathable, and built for movement, the Essence Light Neckwarmer is the kind of low-profile gear that ends up in your kit bag year-round.
