Location: Buffalo, Wyoming | Wild rags are very common out here. Men and women wear them to keep warm and they do a very good job of it. |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | I'm a little crazy and different, but when I am freezing my ass off, it isn't my neck that gets cold. I hate wearing jewelry (watches, rings, chains, etc...). I even hate wearing gloves because I like feeling what I'm touching. I would never wear a scarf. If it's a fashion thing, I wouldn't wear it either. I hate things around my neck, probably because I have a 17 inch neck. I hate ties and shirts with tight collars. If I wore a scarf, it would make my neck look even larger than it is, so I would look like Jabba The Hut.

Location: Great NW | for those that spend HOURS outside - they are warm and GOOD ones are expensive. If the wind is blowing you can pull them up to protect your face from icey rain or sleet. They do not cause itching like your "regular" scarf would. My husband and kids each have a drawer full - just so they have the color they want. |

The Facebook dude was a little fluffier, wearing a pull over sweater and had a color coordinated silk scarf (smaller one) tied intricately around his neck with a cowboy hat on. Tan and pale blue.
However, I must admit that any man wearing a silk scarf to go out in makes me roll laughing. If it's serving a purpose on the trail cool, but to dress up to go out.....dude was dressed better than his woman. You know the old saying, "never go out with a dude that uses more hairspray than you or stands in the mirror longer than you." |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | I'm going to have to re-think on this. Maybe they are useful and comfortable. I could also throw them in the wash and at night when I am at the bars chasing women, I can wear my rag as an ascot.

I agree, A nice cinch shirt and a wild rag, is the "dress up" outfit here too, It's not our fault LRQHS has never been to true cowboy country !
