ABSTRACT:
A neck wrap comprising a wrap member and a fastening means is described. The wrap member includes a center section and two extended sections. The center section is of a first predetermined width and has a first and second end and a heat transfer unit retaining means, located between the first and second ends, which has dimensions sufficient to allow a desired heat transfer unit to be inserted and retained within the heat transfer unit retaining means during use. Each of the two extended sections is of a second predetermined width greater than the first predetermined width of the center section. The extended sections are connected at the first and second end of the center section in a manner such that a flap portion is created on each of the extended sections of sufficient width to allow the extended portions to be attached together without constricting the throat area of the user when the neck wrap is in use. One of the extended sections is attached to the first end of the center section, and the other extended section is attached to the second end of the center section. Each of the extended sections is of sufficient length to permit moisture removal from the head and arms of a wearer. The fastening means includes a first and second interlocking segment. The first interlocking segment is attached to one of the flap portions and the second interlocking segment is attached to the other the flap portion.
