Even if you’re not the active type, a sports buff is perhaps the most versatile thing you can pack in your carry-on bag. Ladies and gents with long hair can use the buff as a headband to help keep hair in check and out of the way between taxis, trains, and planes. The buff can also be used as a scarf when it’s cold,\u00a0sweatband when you’re breaking a sweat, and eye mask to block out light on the plan or when taking a nap at the airport.<\/p>\n
