From your home streets to the top of mountains, our Yushu Neck Gaiter will become your most versatile piece of kit!


Our Hima-Layer™ Yushu fabric is knitted with 60% premium yak wool with 40% superfine merino and weighs 240gsm.

Giving back to the Himalayan nomads

kora was founded with the aim of supporting the communities of the Kegawa Herders' Cooperative, by buying their yak wool directly to create our layers.

We buy this wool at a set mid-market rate throughout the buying season in order to offer price certainty, and in addition we pay a 10% stipend.

Yushu fabric blend is truly awesome, but the neck gaiter had drawbacks

First, let me be clear, Kora products and their mission are great! I will continue to be a customer for years to come and recommend them to others. I have a few other products from them which I love! However, this neck gaiter just missed the mark for me. It was quite snug and tight, and I don't believe I have a larger face by any means, as I am an average build, 5'10'' guy. It also seemed a bit on the short side (overall length), compared to a few other neck gaiters I have had experience with. It also had very little to no stretch to it, which I can understand if its due to the fabrics used but I thought it would have just a bit of a stretchiness. The fabric comfort and weight along with simple designs are great! But I would really love Kora to redesign this product to hopefully make it truly an all-around great product.

I was hoping for more...

I absolutely LOVE kora as a brand and have left several raving 5 star reviews, but I can't give this gaiter the same love.

The fabric is great, as expected and it feels very nice. It also looks great, but for me, it's small and tight around my neck and face.

Maybe it will "expand" some as I wear it more? Not sure. We'll see.

I wear a ton of gaiters while skiing or just around town in Ski Country. I often wear them on my head, as an "open" hat, and this may be how I choose to wear my new Yushu Neck Gaiter, as it fits as a gaiter hat perfectly.

BUT, my biggest issue is the price. I realize kora is an expensive brand. And I also realize that you get what you pay for, but at $50, I was expecting more, especially in terms of the overall size of it.

I'm still a HUGE kora fan, but it's highly unlikely I'll be buying another kora gaiter.
