FAQs
What is the primary material of the RUFFNEK snood?
The snood is made from 100% seamless microfibre, which is derived from recycled plastic bottles.
Can this snood be used as a face mask for protection?
It can be worn as a face covering to protect against wind, dust, and sun, but it is not a medical-grade mask and does not offer certified protection against viruses or airborne pathogens.
Is the snood suitable for very cold weather?
It offers good protection against wind and retains warmth due to its wicking properties, making it suitable for moderately cold weather. For extreme cold, additional insulation might be necessary.
How do I clean and maintain the snood?
It is machine washable at 30°C. Air dry only and do not iron or bleach. Avoid fabric softeners.
What are the dimensions of the snood?
The approximate size is 25cm x 50cm.
Does the one-size fit all sizes of dogs?
It is designed to fit most medium-sized dogs. For very small or very large breeds, the fit may vary.
Why is it described as hypoallergenic?
Microfibre material is naturally less likely to cause allergic reactions compared to some other fabrics. It is also designed to resist the buildup of bacteria and allergens.
Troubleshooting
Snood feels too tight or too loose.
Try adjusting the way it is worn. Experiment with different folding techniques or styles (e.g., doubling it over for a tighter fit, or wearing it as a single layer for a looser fit). Due to the universal size, minor adjustments in wearing style are often necessary.
Material feels rough or less soft after washing.
Avoid using fabric softener, as this can affect the microfibre's performance. If softener was used, re-wash with a small amount of white vinegar in the rinse cycle to help remove residue.
Color seems to fade after multiple washes.
Ensure washing in cold water and drying away from direct sunlight. While the material is designed to resist fading, prolonged exposure to harsh washing or sun can still impact color vibrancy over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This snood requires no setup. Simply unfold it and wear it in your desired configuration (neck warmer, headband, mask, etc.).

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine washable at 30°C or cooler.
- Drying: Air dry only. Avoid tumble drying to preserve the fabric's elasticity and shape.

- General Maintenance: The microfibre material is designed for durability and should retain its properties with proper care. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the wicking capabilities of the fabric.
