For Kahan, it was only natural to team up with L.L. Bean having been a supporter of the brand for years. Not only does it act as a reminder of his childhood, but an homage to his New England roots.

“I grew up wearing my brother’s Bean Boots, so the brand has always been a part of my life,” he said in a press release. “Wearing L.L. Bean makes me feel like I’m outside, even if I’m not, and this is important because going outside is self care for me, especially when it comes to my mental health. Including Penny is also just so special as she’s been my closest confidant during the creation and launch of Stick Season, so this collection is really personal and nostalgic for me.”

This neck cooling tube does exactly as its name suggests, serving as a way to keep your body temperature cool and comfortable.

The material gets down to 64 degrees when you place the wearable neck cooler in the freezer for as little as 20 minutes. Reviewers are in awe over how effective the cooling neck tube is, calling it a “personal AC unit” that doesn’t leave behind “any condensation or moisture” on your clothes (just be sure to wipe off any moisture after taking it out of the freezer). Worn like a loose necklace or wrap, the accessory can also provide up to 120 minutes of non-stop and instant cooling.

Another notable feature is its flexible body that’s made from eco-friendly materials and can adapt to your neck. You can also choose from six different colors depending on your personal preferences.

Do Neck Coolers Really Work?

Personal neck coolers can help regulate your body temperature on hot days when you’re outside or if you’re looking to save money and limit your AC use. While a portable neck cooler won’t be able to chill an entire room, it’ll act as your own personal cool breeze wherever you go — and for an affordable price.

What Are the Benefits of a Neck Cooler?

Unlike a portable AC unit, neck coolers don’t require electricity for power — just pop it in the freezer for up to 30 minutes and you’ll get immediate cooling relief. Health-wise, using a personal neck cooler will help reduce your risk of heatstroke by helping to regulate your body temperature and keep you from overheating. This is great for outdoor gatherings, beach days and festivals too.
