The red was a bit brighter than I was hoping for, however that is bound to happen with the difference in monitors. the fabric is incredible soft.
I bought 4 colours, red, green, blue and black. The scarfs are long enough to wrap them 3 times around your neck and than it looks like a loose turtleneck. The fabric is 100% polyester, thin, soft and a bit see through against the light. The pocket has a zipper in the same colour as the scarf and the size of the pocket is large enough to put your passport in and more. Not real heavy stuff because off the weight, but passport, money, creditcard, key for sure. The pockets of the green and blue one aren't sewn properly, the green one has a hole in it so I can't use that one. I have to fix it first.
