The popularity of using ice to say cool has skyrocketed the last couple years. I find the Rabbit ice bandana to be the perfect solution to staying cold. Ice doesn't fall out like some other products and they are also stylish as hell.

Ice bandana is an absolute necessity for long, hot races like Western States. This Rabbit bandana is my go-to

Keeps you cool when you need it. Somehow keeps ice in tact for hours, barely bounces around your neck, and doesn't obstruct your throat at all. Can't recommend this enough.

Say no more. Tiny neck glacier. Lifesaver for me during JJ! Ran sub 13h for 100 miles and came in fourth place on a scorcher of a day.

Emi Stretton, What Gets Me Through the Miles
One of my favorite pieces of gear for hot-weather running. The Rabbit ICE Bandana gives me an easy way to cool down during long runs—especially when I’m out for hours in the heat. I can wet it, wear it around my neck, and get some much-needed relief when the temperature starts climbing. Small piece of gear, but a big difference on long summer miles.

My body temp runs out so having an ice bandana has been a game changer for me. Staying cool for longer until the next aid station

She’s cute, she’s the moment and helps so much

Ice bandanas are key for keeping your cool between aid stations. I prefer mine on the top of my head rather than tied around my neck, test what placement works best for you!

This is the comfiest ice bandana I have found so far. It doesn’t bounce. The zipper makes for easy addition of ice.

I live at 10,000 ft so I tend to overheat in races even if it's not that hot outside. I love this ice bandana, it doesn't bounce and carries just enough ice to cool you down without being too heavy.
