From Cheryl use during my 50-mile "Dolphin Dash" fundraiser run on June 17th in preparation to go the International Whaling Commission (IWC) meeting in Agadir, Morocco.Well, I made it. Not only did I finish, but I actually felt good enough at the end to jump over the finish line! :) It's no exaggeration to say that the run was much easier - much more comfortable - because I had the Polar Breeze Bandanas. They were magic! It was a very hot day - mid 80's- and though I was well-hydrated, the sun was unrelenting and the bandanas stayed moist and cool around my neck - perfect. My crew of three kept the bandanas rotated and now they're converts, too! ;) |

Hi Mark and Charleen: We are "Team Winter Garden Wheelworks," down here near Orlando Florida. This summer has been brutal. We frequently found ourselves riding in 100 degree plus heat. After having several people have "heat issues" and realizing that the wet bandana was not doing the trick I went in search of something that would keep us cool and on the trail. We would pedal between 50 and 100 miles on any given Saturday. I found you on the web and now we are able to complete our rides without anyone having a "heat bonk." We love your bandanas. Kathy has nicknamed them our "neck sausages." Thanks for keeping us cool and in the saddle turning pedals. Sincerely, Steve K. |

I already have some Polar Breeze Bandanas myself and love them. I am part of a group of scrapbookers who meet in Breckenridge Colorado every year for a retreat. I asked Charleen to make some bandanas for me to give to them. While I was thinking of what fabric to use she told me she would find some fabric that had a scrapbooking theme on it. She found the perfect fabric and my friends (The Breckenyaya's) loved them too and can't wait for warm weather to try them out.

In June 2008, my husband and I went to Egypt on a tour. Knowing it was going to be incredibly warm, I consulted a friend who has been several times. He said, “You will need one of those cool bandanas. If you don’t have one, you’ll be sorry. My friend gave me one, but I have no idea where you can find one.” Without any luck whatsoever, I made calls and pilgrimages to every sports store and department in the usual big box stores in our area of Colorado. FINALLY, I had the presence of mind to turn to the Internet and found your site, Polar Breeze, when I “Googled” the keywords “Cool Bandanas.” We ordered four of them. Suzanne and John from Colorado

Hi Charleen!

Here are two pictures of Sara modeling her polar breeze bandana. I had to do it in the house because she was just too excited outside to pose. Probably also due to the heat. It's REALLY hot around here these last few days.

I am attaching a picture of my husband and I with our Polar Breeze bandanas and Donald Duck. I have to say - those bandanas made our trip to Disney much better than our last! We kept our extras in a ziploc baggie filled with ice in our backpacks to switch out with. -Elaine

Hi Charleen, I'm hopefully in the last stages of menopause and even though the hot flashes aren't as bad as they were, now I'm just hot all the time. It's horrible!! Between menopausal women and women in hot workplaces, I really think these would help. It's just a matter of getting the word out to these women. By the way, I wore the 2 inch pair today and I was comfortable all day, again. I can't wait to try the shorter ones. I still can't believe how well they work. I have a couple of co workers that know about this and I'll look at them and smile and say, " I have my Boob Toobs in and I feel good" Pam

I’m a breast cancer survivor and team captain for the Avon 2 Day Walk for Breast Cancer. We have 12 members on our team, the Mile High Ta Ta’s, and I wanted to get each member a neck cooler for the walk next month. You had the best website, best prices and what appears to be the best quality for our needs! Most of the sites were very industrial and not what I was looking for.

Hi PolarBreezers-
|

Thank you. I have to tell you a funny story about your web site that I think you might appreciate. My husband lost his job a few months ago and in the meantime, he has been helping my niece with her landscaping service here in good old hot Georgia. Thursday afternoon, after working in this heat for several hours, he passed out and came close to having a heat stroke. I have one cooler bandana that I purchased several years ago and I use while walking/jogging. I decided I needed to order a few for the entire family, especially my husband and niece for them to use outside working in the heat…which brings me to the funny part. My husband was contacted yesterday about a job, from a company in Fairbanks. Out of all the websites that popped up when I started my search for the cooler bandanas, your web site is the one that I clicked on first! When I saw the “ Made in Fairbanks” pop up first thing, I just died laughing. I did check a few of the other web sites and others had better deals, however, I liked the fact that 10% of your sales goes to a good cause…and who knows, maybe someday I get to actually come in your shop as a local!.... Thanks again, Susan Alpharetta, GA

It is Father's Day in Singapore on the 20th of June and my sister and i wanted to get something for our Dad who is temporary working in Iowa ( he will be back in Singapore in July). He loves fishing during the weekends and we wanted to give him something special to help him to beat the heat. My sister actually found your website through a google search and we felt it was a good idea to get some Bandanas since he wears them alot.

I wanted to thank you for sending me the forehead pad. Not long after you sent it to me I had to be admitted into the hospital with a 103 fever for a week. Since I was 8 months pregnant I had to have a cooling blanket on me. I had my husband get the forehead pads and I used those. They worked great. I told each and every nurse that came in your website and told them some of the other products that you have (the ones that I have), and how great they worked.

Hi Charleen, The bandanas were a hit! Thanks so much for all of your help!! Brianne |

I had two, and today I lent one to a handiman working outside our house in the brutal Florida sun. He loved it so much I gave it to him, which meant I needed to order more (I CAN'T let my dog go Polar-Breezeless!) Thanks for your note, and for such a great product! (It still cracks me up that these are made in Alaska!) Concetta-Florida

Thank you for such speedy service. I do appreciate it. They will come in handy in Sturgis this year. I plan on wearing one as a headband. Again, thanx for the great service and I look forward to doing business with you again. janice

Hi Charleen. I received the forehead pads and boob tubes -- they are great! My dog has been wearing bandanas every day recently, and they comfort her a lot. Last night I had to turn off the bedroom window AC because we were having frequent power cuts, probably brown-outs. I noticed after about 15 minutes that Birgit was very hot, so I put a fresh bandana on her and massaged her face with the pads. She cooled off within 5 minutes, and slept with forehead pads under her chest. I want you to know that these products have been a godsend for us both! If you have a "testimonial" page I'd like to post one -- I've already posted information about your company on Facebook. Hope it brings you some business!Barbara |
