Flat is boring
Original Buff S.A., inventor of seamless headwear, is a Spanish company based near Barcelona. The idea for the Buff tube scarf came in 1971 during a cycle tour. At this time, founder Joan Rojas needed to protect his neck from wind and cold. His makeshift solution - a pair of old military underpants - scratched him and was not exactly a visual highlight. At this, Rojas began to draw up sketches and conduct tests in the family textile factory, until he found a way to produce seamless tube scarves from microfibre. Since 1992, Original Buff has been producing multifunctional headwear and has now become the global market leader. The collection has a clear focus on functionality, quality and design. Original Buff uses only high quality materials and with 400 different designs offers an extremely wide range to suit every taste.
