Flyrail47 Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 I discovered that the neck seal I was given is a few inches too big for my neck. It's a zipper enclosure so I can't exactly adjust it. Should I replace the neck seal altogether? Or should I put velcro on both ends to make it adjustable? I appreciate any advice you guys can offer. 1 Quote

Flyrail47 Posted October 7, 2016 Author Report Posted October 7, 2016 My apologies. I should've thought of that in the first place. The neckseal is made of a mesh/cloth fabric. It's 20in in circumference with a connecting zipper, whereas my neck size is 15.5in. Quote

justjoseph63[Staff] Posted October 7, 2016 Report Posted October 7, 2016 That definitely looks way too loose, William. If you (or someone you know) can sew, I would go the Velcro route. If not, I highly recommend one of Darman's: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/21385-darmans-neck-seals/?hl=%2Bdarman+%2Bneck+%2Bseals. which are available in either Velcro or with a zipper. Just remember you don't want it too tight. I keep mine a bit loose for comfort. 1 Quote

Flyrail47 Posted October 7, 2016 Author Report Posted October 7, 2016 Thank you gentleman. I've been looking at Darman's neck seals for awhile and they're definitely appealing. Seeing as how I've still got awhile before my setup is ready, I'll probably replace it with one of his. Quote
