I’ve had this durag for a few years. It’s still in good condition. Between wash and styles, wearing during physical fitness sessions and every day use it’s been more than reliable. I prefer the ties to have the somewhat stretch-like fabric to get a good secure rag after a session and for a little more comfort around the forehead. This is definitely one of my go to options for that. Also, the uniqueness of the design with the famous Naruto clans crossover with the coarse hair waver community it’s a must cop.
