Neck Cooling Wraps

[dthogue]

I was looking for the neck wraps that you immerse in water that help to keep you cool - does anyone know where I can find these and more importantly do they work? We'll in WDW in August!

We used these two years ago and they do work to a certain extent however, since they essentially remain wet for days on end, they do get a musty/mildewy smell on them even after washing (think sour dishcloth). So after three or four days we basically had to throw them out. I don't know if anyone else has had a similar experience or not. Maybe I was using the wrong cleaner, I don't know, but we haven't used them since and we have coped just fine with the August heat.

You can find them at sporting goods stores and I LOVE mine. Went to DW in July last year and it kept me cool and comfortable. I will use it at a music festival in June. I just wash it and make sure it is hung up in the air to dry.
