What is The Cobber?
The neck wrap is made of polyester and cotton and is filled with poly-crystals. By simply placing the neck wrap in clean water for approximately 30 minutes and allowing the crystals to expand, it produces an evaporative cooling system for the user when placed around the neck.

The Cobber Body Cooling Neck Wrap lowers the body temperature by cooling the carotid arteries in the neck. The material may become warm against the skin but by simply rotating the wrap, the cooling effect is rejuvenated immediately!

Eu não disse que não deveria manter o nome do produto ( o colega disse que era uma empresa), mas simplesmente dei o significado da palavra cobber que, na Austrália , quer dizer "buddy", ou "amigo próximo". Babylon English-English
