Very warm, worth every penny. On the cold rides out to the blind or to the ice house keeps me warm. If you plan on walking around and doing a lot of moving, maybe to hot for you.
Very warm and seems to be well built.
This, just like all the Sitka Gear I own, did not let me down. There is no other gator on the market you can even try to compare it to for reference. Warm, durable, dries fairly quick on those heavy precipitation hunts. No brainer, must have in the gear drawer item!
This is by far the warmest neck gaiter on the market. The gaiter is not too bulky but provides great warmth to the neck, face and up to the eyes. I wore this during extreme weather with the temperature -2 to 7 degrees and wind chill -10 to -15. I have the gaiter paired with the Sitka Blizzard Beanie for full winter protection.
Very warm, well built, low bulk
Absolutely a fantastic product for extreme cold, this will protect your neck and face offering great warmth!
I finally got to test this in frigid temperatures, and it really impressed me.
I did a 5 hour hunt from the ground sitting the entire time in 13-22 degrees Fahrenheit. It was sub 16 for 3 hours with some wind making it feel like 8 or less.
I was totally warm. It’s loose enough that it doesn’t put pressure on your nose, tall enough to cover your eyes and easily bunches around your neck. It feels windproof, but you can breathe in and out through it without difficulty. It is a perfect product. I’ve tried merino balaclavas and thinner merino neck gaiters that don’t gut the wind, are too tight, and allow wind to come up your collar. This thing has no problems. It also fits around the collar of my Jetstream jacket nicely to keep me warm without drafts.
Somehow it regulated moisture well. Usually, I snot all over thinner neck gaiters and they get cold. This wasn’t a problem because it actually kept my nose warm. It also seals well just under the eyes, and I pulled it up over the ears of my Stratus Beanie to add warmth. Below 20 I had to put on a second hat as the Stratus was just thin, but the neck gaiter really helped extend the stratus’ cold weather abilities. Best Sitka product. Buy a backup for a friend.
Warmest neck gaiter on the market, and it blocks the wind which is the game changer
I purchased one of these for a late season North Dakota field hunt. Laying in the snow covered field with the wind blowing from our back tis kept me both warm and dry. My tried it out. Felt how soft it was on the inside I hade to purchase another one!
A must have for those cold days. Very comfortable
This thing is fire (literally)....very warm, very comfortable and quite durable. Worth the money
It’s an absolute must have to add to your gear during the cold weather. Super warm and comfortable to wear.
If used PURELY as a neck gaiter, this thing works great and is super warm and soft. My frustration is that I like to be able to bring my neck gaiters up over my mouth and nose if it gets cold, but with this (while I CAN get it up over my face) it fits SUPER snug and is difficult to breath through, but not impossible. I will note, I have a big ol' honkin' head, and that probably is the biggest factor in this, but maybe either finding a way to allow a little elasticity and breathability to this would be awesome. Otherwise this an awesome piece. Don't get me wrong, it is still a great piece and I will still be using this on my hunts going forward.
Never saw this as a necessary piece of gear but once I bought it I wear it on every hunt! Cuts the wind and makes those cold late season hunts so much warmer! Worth it! Very breathable, soft and warm! No complaints.
Comfortable and can breath through it.
Outstanding piece of equipment that absolutely cuts the wind and is soft & warm when wearing in the most demanding temps. I highly believe this piece of equipment should be standard in every serious hunter's equipment list.
Absolute must have on cold days. Best piece of hunting gear ever.
This neck gaiter Is a little tight but it is amazingly warm. Running a runner boat down behind the blind boat on big open frigid waters at 50 mhp it sure makes a difference wearing this product to other products I have used.
Awesome product! Fits great, warm, silent, easy to pack. I own two and use them when it gets cold and windy, like when it got down to -15 with 12mph wind and they helped to lock in heat and keep the bitter wind off my face and neck!!
You will not regret this purchase. Here in the southeast we don't often get much below freezing, however, on a resent duck hunting trip to KS it was below zero with the wind chill. I'm not used to that type of weather but this neck gaiter was the perfect piece of equipment to keep the wind a cold off my neck. Highly recommend.
I have four of these, was hoping for an upgraded effort this last time around. I believe these would be much better it there was an elastic component. It's a one size fits all and they can be very restrictive. The warmth component is great and they're an important part of my gear system but would be much more efficient and comfortable if they had some stretch to them. It would make a big difference on the long sits as well as during a spot and stalk.
I used the neck gator on several occasions in -40 Celsius temperatures while predator hunting, it allowed me to sit still for hours!
I use it for boat rides mostly but it works AMAZING.
Bought this for my wife for Christmas. She is about 5'4" 115 lbs. I think these are one size fits all. It fits her well, she had a chance to use it once or twice because we have had warm weather and it worked great. She already had a few neck protectors, which are thinner, this will be her go to for the colder days. We hike 2+ miles per day with our dogs and out about an hour or so.
I've bought a lot of different, latest, greatest neck gaiters. For working construction and tree stand hunting in Wisconsin winters. I found them all lacking in one respect, they weren't totally windproof. Warm? yes but the wind is the culprit. This will be my last gaiter I ever buy, as it is perfect for my purposed. I also bought my son one, that way I'll always have mine. Just wish it wouldn't have taken 50 years to find :)
Wore this in the deer stand Christmas Eve morning. 8 degree temps with a breeze, never felt the cold air get to my neck, and the gaiter stays dry and warm even when I’m breathing into it. Would buy again and again.
Very warm. It will be great in the boat going to the duck blind.
This is by far the warmest neck gator I've found. If I could give 10 stars I would! The color combo works great with my uniform also! Highly recommend!!
These are great! I have one in Optifade and got another one in black. A must have when in gets into the teens and lower twenties, bow hunting or in the yard.
One of my best Sitka investments. Paired with my Fanatic jacket and bibs it was a game changer in teen temps with 20mph winds this year
When the temperature drops and the wind makes it near impossible to endure the elements, these neck gaiters are a must have. I have them in several different patters for my days in the timber waiting patiently for whitetails, and also for those harsh boat rides crossing open water chasing water fowl. Even have a black one for the days of sitting in a popup ground blind. The soft inner fleece keeps my face warm and the windstopper outer layer does the rest. When it’s cold cold, this is must have gear to prolong my time in the harsh temperatures.
Perfect for extreme cold. Wore today while riding shoves on a train with temperatures at 6 degrees and windshield factor of -11 and it kept me warm! Highly recommend! This is worth every penny!
This neck gaiter is awesome!!
As is all of Sitka’s gear!!!
This neck gaiter will definitely help keep you warm and toasty on those long sits in the blind.
Excellent quality, and very warm. Used in single digits and kept my face warm while out on my quad. I’m very satisfied with the purchase and highly recommend for those very late fall hunts.
The neck gaiter is super comfortable. I actually got it to wear while riding my street bike in 25-40 degree F. weather. It definitely does it's job keeping me warm even with the wind chill! Definitely recommend!
This is a great piece when it's very cold. It holds in all the heat from your chest. I put it on after a couple hours on the stand. It's that warm.
This is a great piece when it's very cold. It holds in all the heat from your chest. I put it on after a couple hours on the stand. It's that warm.
Probably top 3 items I own from Sitka. Super warm and comfortable. Keeps the wind from entering neck and pairs nicely with the beanie. Cold wet AR field hunting and I was warm the whole time.
This neck gaiter is the best that I have ever used. Very warm and kept out the wind. Was used for the 22 WI deer hunt and it did not disappoint.
Best warmest hat on the planet. Hands down. Well worth the money. I’d pay 200 for this hat it’s the best !!
Best money I’ve ever spent on one piece of gear.
Very warm but because there's no sizing, you can't get a proper size or tighten it up. For those of us with giraffe necks it's loose and let's air in, which defeats its purpose.
I love these, have 2 of them! Would consider them a M/L, and wish they were bigger though.
Absolutely love these neck gaiters. They make all the difference in the world when you’re in cold and/or windy conditions.
Works like a charm on those windy, bitter cold days.
Wish they were made a little bigger for us guys with no neck
Very warm a little tight.
Super warm for Virginia's whitetail season. Maybe a little too warm on some days!
Absolutely crucial to cold weather hunting. Wish Sitka made them in WHITE!
Love this so much! Made sitting in 15 degree weather so easy. It’s not restricting & can breathe but stay cozy!
This was a last minute purchase and I have to say it was one of the best ones!! Its amazing how much warmer it's kept me in the stand and the quality is perfect. I won't be hunting without it this year!
Hands down the best neck gator on the planet. I have never really worn neck gators before until several years ago when I was on a late season deer hunt in CO and temps were well below freezing all day, every day. I can't even tell you the difference this neck gator made in keeping me warm. It not only keeps the cold air from coming inside your jacket, but you can pull it up over your face to stay nice and toasty warm. Since that time, I now wear this thing every time I go out hunting in the cold. Everything from duck hunting, deer or elk hunting and fishing, this piece of winter gear is ALWAYS in my pack. Even just driving around the UTV in the winter. Super warm, super comfortable and very well made. Just as you would expect from Sitka. Buy one and take along with you on your next cold weather adventure. The only regret you will have is wishing you would have bought one much sooner! You will not be disappointed.
Works great! It's comfortable, warm, and light almost like it’s not there. Love it, highly recommend.
This is the warmest, most comfortable thing I’ve ever worn. You need this neck gaiter.
This was the first SITKA item i ever owned, and is what convinced me their gear was no joke. Even after getting many different pieces of gear, this one still may be my favorite piece of SITKA I own. So warm, so comfortable.
This is amazing. Best neck gaiter on the outdoor market but also in general. Really wish they’d made solid colors so I can wear them for work throughout the winter.
This is a must!!!!! I love it. Anyone with asthma or breathing issues, you will love this. No more frozen lungs!!!! Be aware though guys, went you first put it on, it can be a bit restrictive on your breathing. Once you calm down and control your breathing, you will love it. I cuts wind, keeps you warm, it repels water, and is easily packable. Definitely a must have for late season.
I live in Minnesota and this thing is seriously worth every single penny. Never once, have I been cold in this thing.
These are incredibly warm. I have two of them!
This piece is an absolute must and a game changer to keep your entire body warmer. I was surprised at the difference this neck gaiter makes. I stay much warmer than ever. Blocks that chill that creeps down the back of your neck. Also does a great job of staying up. I own the fanatic jacket and stratus bibs and this impressed me equally for a minimal price.
This is a go-to piece for cold days. Perfect shape and design to stay put. It doesn’t creep up or down and doesn’t make you feel like you’re being choked. First neck gaiter I’ve been able to wear comfortably!
Incredibly warm in frosty high winds. The fleece interior is really soft.
I never knew how big of a game changer a neck gaiter could be. If you have ever been in the blind, decked out from head to toe in heavy insulation and wondered why the slightest bit of wind sent a chill down your spine, its because you don't have this neck gaiter on. It will literally change how you view the cold. can't recommend this product enough.
This thing is HOT! I've worn it for 2 years and this thing will make you damn near sweat in the cold. 100% wind proof, just amazing in the cold.
If you're reading this review, because you're considering this neck gaiter just do it. It is a great piece of gear and I love it. It got me through a rough winter this past season and highly recommend it. It will definitely keep you warm.
I love this neck gaiter! Its the perfect piece of gear to keep that chill off your neck. I hunt in Alabama and it doesn't get below freezing much but the wind is brutal. It will take your breath away and this is the item that will help lock in that warmth.
Purchased in Timber...YOU WANT THIS ONE...nothing increases moral and puts you back into the hunt than adding some warmth and fuzz life that!
Need a neck gaiter? Well out of 8 that I have in cold weather this is my go to - covers everything it has to and more. It is soft and easy to put on and remove even when it's damp it keeps me warm. Love it but I love the whole FANATIC system it is truly the best
As others say it is a game changer. It has a great feeling to it and make sure your neck is warm. Buy it you won't regret. The only reason I only gave it 4 stars is I think it is small in size
This simple piece of clothing is a game changer for a hunter in cold weather.
I was really hesitant to purchase this piece! I have a big head and a large neck! Upon other reviews, I figured I would give it a shot. It fit fine, the neck gaiter is super warm and worth every penny! If you have any reservations on fit, don't worry, it will! Once you wear it, you will really notice how much heat you loose around your neck! Thanks Sitka!
Very soft and warm. It does a great job of sealing out the cold and the heat in at your neck. Only down side is the super soft Berber fleece has a tendency to pick up and hold burrs and little pieces of twig very well that stick, poke, and make for an itchy neck. But if you can keep it clean it’s great.
I am not usually a neck gaiter kind of person. This one is spot on. It is not overly bulky and it is the perfectly length. Pair it up with a Sitka hoodie like the apex or the heavyweight (put the hood on, then the neck gaiter), top it off with the fanatic beanie or the Hudson GTX hat and you only feel the cold on your eyeballs. It definitely makes an all day sit tolerable even in the coldest PA conditions.
As good as the cool side of the pillow on a summer night. Adding this to your cold weather gear will have you questioning why no one else is out in the blizzard. Adds serious warmth with something that goes into your pocket.
The thing works great!
This might just be my favorite piece of Sitka gear that I own. I own a lot of the waterfowl line including the Dakota, Gradient, and Grinder pieces as well as the Dakota Hat and Hudson Muff. I love this piece. I find when hunting when it’s really cold out the best way to stay warm is keeping everywhere warm, I have things to keep my head, hands, and feet warm but I always found I was losing a lot of heat through my neck/chin area. Long sits in the blind it the deer stand were chilly with more clothes on before I got this guy. I found it really keeps my entire body warm because I’m not losing heat anywhere and I can sit for so much longer. Most neck gaiters are super itchy when you have a beard. This one isn’t which makes it a game changer. This is a phenomenal piece and everyone needs one if they’re hunting anywhere below 30*. Much love from Northern Minnesota!
Great product. This is a must to complete your hunting system.
it's pretty MINTY
I am 5 foot 7 1/2 150 pounds, this is perfect for me, sitting in 30° weather is perfect also pull up just on my face, so warm so comfortable, feels so great on your face and neck
5'9" 185lb. North Dakota. 7 3/4" hat size. 17.5" Neck
Temp Range Comfortable- Below Zero-30s (Gets too warm when worn in early season temps)
I have what I consider a large head so this is snug but not uncomfortable in any way.
Extremely extremely warm. Have worn in high wind, freezing fog, low temp weather conditions and I could not have been more comfortable.
IMO comfort is critical to you enjoying hunting on any given day of the year. If you want a matching piece of high quality gear to keep your face and neck warm I highly recommend this product.
But this neck gaiter. Don't even think twice about it. You won't be disappointed.
Super warm and soft, absolutely incredible how big of a difference it can make. However, I give it 4 stars because it bunches up in the front and back, especially when I wear my Fanatic hoodie under it.
This is the first Sitka item I would call basic. It does not have a drawstring which I consider makes one truly one size fits all. Also the picture seems misleading it does not swoop down in the front. When I pull it up over my chin it isn’t tucked in
Honestly just look at it and you feel warm. I love this neck gaiter and will have to buy another one this year, because I wear mine so much even when I am not hunting.
Extremely warm and well built. Best quality gaiter I have found.
I picked one up last duck season for myself and immediately fell in love it. I cannot stand my neck/face getting cold and the gaitor does a perfect job in keeping it warm with the fleece material. I also had to buy another for my son because he kept stealing mine. It’s one of those items you can’t leave the house without.
This is one deluxe piece of gear! Incredibly comfortable and warm you can use this while glassing, sledding, hiking, standing, sleeping, literally whenever you want to be warm and comfortable! Also those with large melons that are worried that it won't fit - my hat size is about 7 5/8 and it slipped over my large head so fear not if your hat size is below that, probably a size or two larger would be tight tho.
Love the product. If you wear a size 7 1/4 hat or smaller, you can wear it.
Just get it, you won’t regret this one.
Let me preface by saying I AM NOT a "sitka" guy. This is the only clothing I own from Sitka and you can usually find me in a hodgepodge of Max 5 (duck hunting camo) and a Women's extra large puffy coat while sitting in my tree stand. With that said, I found myself struggling to stay warm on my all day sits in WI. I finally purchased this gaiter and my lord it has been the best money I have spent. Seriously, it DOES NOT matter the temperature, this material will keep your face warm. You can pull it up to your eyes on those days where you are asking yourself why in the heck you aren't sitting by the fireplace, or you can wear it as a simple neck guard. If you are struggling to click that purchase button, just do it. From one cheapskate to another, this is worth the money. My last piece of advice for you is if you are thinking about wearing a lighter face mask underneath this neck gaiter.... don't. Maybe it is just me, but I have found that this neck gaiter performs best when it is unrestricted i.e. when it is touching your face.
I LOVE this. I'm a girl so obviously I'm always cold. I hunt into January here in Maine and use it ice fishing all season it's seriously so warm and soft and looks nice!
This gaiter saved my 2018 Kansas deer hunt. The weather wasn’t supposed to be cold (40s-50s) when I was there. However as the weather does, it changed. The last few days the temps dropped into the 20s with a steady wind and snow. This piece kept me warm and in the stand, even dressed for temps 20-30 degrees warmer than they were. It’s amazing how much heat escapes through your head/neck area.
great "looking" item but I cannot get it over my head! I wear a 7 3/4 hat and I cannot even get over my melon. I wish it would, it looks warm but is a total waste of money for me.
This product is great for keeping your neck warm. In addition, you can pull it up over mouth and nose. Seemed like a bit of a frivolous purchase at the time, but I'm glad I had it.
A must have in the blind bag. It’s big enough to pull up over mouth and nose while you are checking the sky for birds. I hunted several days in single digits and was never cold.
This neck gaiter lives in my kit once the weather hovers around freezing. The inside fleece material is extremely soft next to skin and keeps my neck, ears and chin snug and warm as needed. This can be used with most any jacket/coat but I generally use it with the duck oven jacket, and a brimmed toque on top. This combination helps the duck oven hunt colder than it would normally would for me, and the neck gaiter keeps things warm while allowing great visibility and movement in the blind.
Great product! This is the warmest thing I think I have ever worn. Looks great in the optifade and works great in those cold brisk mornings in the blind.
Very warm and keeps the heat inside and the cold out! Perfect hight/length, it allows for you to slip the majority of your face into the gaiter without it balling up like some of the others I have owned in the past. Easy purchase that keeps you warm. Won't go to the tree stand without it!
Buy one. Trust me. It’s amazing.
Wonderful piece of equipment to have on those cold days. Light weight and super warm! And if it does get wet, it dries fairly quickly. Would get full stars of it had a tapered design with the front longer and back shorter - a little bulky on the back of the neck, especially when paired with the Ballistic Beanie.
Amazing piece of gear! Has kept me warm and is very soft. Best neck gaiter for the money. Only wish it was about 2” longer.
Warmest piece of clothing I own! This neck gaiter is the best addition to my late season kit! I always wear the face mask that comes in my Sitka hoody for early deer season but this gaiter in now my go to piece for late season! Keeps my neck and face toasty warm, not too bulky and allows me to stay out for an all day sit!
One of the most comfortable pieces of hunting gear I own. I wear a face mask and a beanie when I hunt and this fits in perfectly. Keeps my neck warm on those days when it's in the teens and single digits, but doesn't collect moisture. I'm really happy I got it for Christmas last year and highly recommend it if you hunt in cold areas.
Fantastic piece of gear. So warm and comfy that the wifey stole it and I had to buy another one. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make this in a solid color for us skiers and snowmobilers Sitka, please.
most comfortable piece of hunting gear I own. It keeps my neck warm while at the same time making me feel extra concealed in the blind.
The best performing neck gaiter I have ever worn, hands down. It is amazing how this neck gaiter does not condensate against your face like other thick fleece neck gaiters. Fits well, not too tight and it stays in place regardless if you are using it for a neck gaiter or neck gaiter/partial face mask. I can even pull the back of it up over my ponytail and it stays in place without restricting my movement. This neck gaiter is my go to for all cold weaher hunting.
This an amazing piece of gear I wouldn't be with out it on a cold January day sea duck hunting on the Maine coast. This thing keeps the wind out and the heat in. It's also really comfortable to wear!
This is one item that is always in my pack for cooler days. It’s amazing the amount of heat you lose through your neck and up from your core and chest. The gaiter is super soft and comfortable. Very thick and extremely warm. Adding just this piece can make the ditterence between a cold and miserable hunt to a warm and comfortable one. Highly recommended piece!
This thing is as warm as they come. Girlfriend got this as a Christmas present and it's absolutely awesome. I usually put it on for the boat ride in and out. I have to pull it down or take it off all together when putting out decoys or when setting up. Absolutely can't say enough nice things about this piece.
This thing is the bomb especially when driving a boat when its cold out. The fleece really helps break up the wind. I do prefer not to have this on when actually hunting however as it can be a tad bit bulky when trying to look around. I found myself constantly having to adjust my hat and or beanie one day this year while leaning up against the blind wall trying to peak up at the ducks, the bulk of this gaiter kept pushing the back of the beanie and or hat up on my head. It is what it is though, its made to be warm, I still Highly Recommend owning one of these.
Wearing one right now and I've been in 22 degree weather for five hours. This thing is working!
I highly recommend this neck gaitor.
This is a must have for any hunter! I have 1 in each camo. Once my hunting buddy's saw them they all purchased one. Always have one with me. Makes those cold morning sits much more enjoyable.
Absolutely LOVE this neck gaiter and is a MUST HAVE item especially in these northern states. I recommend to everyone I meet or take out in the field. As a Registered Maine Guide, I spend many hours in the fields, woods, marshes, and bogs. It is imperative that the gear I choose keeps me warm, dry, and lightweight. Great job!!
Hands down a must have for every hunter. You don't realize how much heat is lost through your neck, until you strap this baby on. A deadly combo when added with the beanie.
Once again, the common Sitka flaw in headgear...too darn small! I am not that large, 5'10, 200 lbs but with a large head (7 1/2) and thick neck. This item will not fit, as much as I'd like it too. PLEASE sitka, make us some larger headgear!
Very warm and very comfortable. I would suggest putting it on once you get to your destination unless you're fighting biting winds and cold temps. It's really that warm. I couldn't believe it until I purchased it. Reasonably priced piece of gear that helps keep you warm and comfortable. I highly recommend it!
Best neck gaiter out there hands down.
For guys with beard stubble.
This is the most comfortable gaiter I've ever owned and the only one I've ever put on that didn't pull my beard. I usually keep some stubble up to a short beard. I can finally turn my head without feeling like tweezers yanking out all my hairs. Dealt with it for years until I came across this beauty.
Sitka definitely hit a home-run with this one
A must have, period. I've already gifted this to two people.
Jason Nailed it! Pair this piece with a wind stopper beanie and you'll be bullet proof. It still allows you to have full range of motion while staying warm. It's a very simple design.
Wish I could give more stars! First off, let's start by saying extremely comfortable, very warm, and surprisingly windproof. Like in some of the other reviews, it is something to always have with you in cold weather. The thing that came to a surprise to me, was how breathable it was. For being as big as it is and have the fleece inside, I was able to hike miles upon miles with it over my face. In fact, it's so good, that sometimes it gets a little too hot. Which is nothing to complain about. Highly recommend this product to anybody in the low temperatures. Definitely buying more for different occasions!
Two things, ultimate comfort and warmth. The ultimate neck protection for the hunter's who hunt in cold situations.
This beast is warm as heck! I was actually TOO HOT on a mountain lion hunt wearing this thing. If you are on the move, take it off. If you are riding snowmobiles or quads in single-digit temps, just pull this thing on and you are all set! Keeping your neck warm is tough in the wind, but this is a great "necessity" for glassing, sitting in a duck blind or on stand during a rut hunt. As a Gore product tester I try to understand how pieces can work together to maximize function without adding bulk or redundant layers. Couple this with a Sitka Windstopper beanie and you have one heck of an option for cold weather hunts.
My love of the history and tradition of the American duck call goes way back. I was eight years old when my parents handed me an old shoe box of calls that had once belonged to my grandfather and his brother. The calls fascinated me, and it wasn’t long before I started my own vintage collection and began attending duck calling competitions. Eventually, I was spending what would become invaluable time with Butch Richenback at his Rich-N-Tone Duck Call shop here in Stuttgart, Arkansas, learning everything he had to teach me.

Incredibly warm and comfortable. Perfect for cold glassing days in the winter!
Gaiter is fine.
I have a drawer full of neck warmers and gaiters. This is by far the warmest & best fitting. Where I hunt isn’t cold very often, but when it is I reach for this piece and it does the job well. My brother had had one for Several years and his is still in great shape after heavy use, so I’m not at all worried about durability. Good job Sitka, you nailed this one!
Absolutely a must have for cold hunts. This neck gaiter was a game changer for something i didn't know I needed. What a difference it makes paired with a beanie versus a high neck coat with a hood. I much prefer to have my eyes completely unblocked while out in the wild. Super warm and comfortable and cuts the wind out completely. Extends your comfortable hunt time for sure.
