What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"The Vardasen is the scarf I actually reach for every day. The merino is genuinely soft against bare skin - no itchiness, no bulk under a collar. At nearly seven and a half feet long, it wraps generously, and the fair isle border gives it enough visual interest to wear with almost anything."Dale of Norway's Vardasen Scarf is a cold-morning essential that earns its place in any winter wardrobe. The 100% merino wool is skin-soft and lightweight - long enough at nearly seven and a half feet to wrap twice or drape over a coat without bunching - and the fair isle border brings Dale's signature Nordic knit detail to an everyday carry piece. The 1-ply, 14-gauge construction sits close to the skin without weight or bulk, and the merino breathes through a full day of wear without holding onto odor. Machine wash on a wool cycle keeps care simple through a full season of use.
