dickeys dickys and dickies for men and women

No matter how you spell it, dickeys are practical and comfortable in the summer and winter. They keep a cold draft from blowing down your neck, and they keep that itchy sweater away from your face. If you suddenly find yourself too warm, they are easy to remove. Use them to accent your skin tones.

Dickeys are false collars meant to be worn under another shirt or sweater. They fall about 12" down your front and back, and extend about 4" towards your shoulder on each side. They will stretch to go over your head like a t-shirt, and can be put on or taken off without removing any other clothing. A dickey should be snug enough around your neck to stay up.

I remember my dad always wore a dickey when he went goose hunting, and he made me wear one, too. It kept the early morning chill away, yet came off easily and stuffed in our pockets when the day warmed up. Dad didn't care much about skin tones. Just wanted green, olive or black.

Cheerleaders, school marching bands, law-enforcement agencies, and other groups who need to identify by color buy lots of these. In December 2004, I sent 4 dozen Black full turtle-neck dickeys to a police department in Mississippi. On 11/2/05, they called back and ordered 5 dozen more, so you know they were pleased.

I took one of the chocolate brown ones to the local UPS shipping depot and the boss there said it would work fine with UPS Brown uniforms. So, I sell a lot of these to UPS drivers.

Some people buy them because the boss keeps the air-conditioning too cold in the summer.

And, everyone remembers Randy Quaid wearing his special-occasion dickey as Cousin Eddie in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. So, I sell a lot of them for "Christmas Vacation" parties.

The photo below represents the shape of the mock neck style (navy) compared to the full-turtleneck style (red).

Each year I get several orders from people who bought a year ago, so you know they must have been happy with them.

Mock-neck dickeys have a double layer of fabric that goes about 2" up the neck, and are meant to approximate the look of a full-turtleneck dickey without the bulk. (see photo below)

Full Turtleneck dickeys have 4" (twice as much) double fabric going up the neck, and are usually worn folded back down on the outside to create a more full-collar look. (see photo below). They might also be worn unfolded and tucked right up under the chin.

regular size (one size fits most - including many men)...
and RuffNecks for BIG men

A note about sizes... Many men can wear the Regular size. Dickeys are pretty forgiving. After all, they have to stretch to fit over your head. I weigh 230 and have a 17" neck, and I can wear the regular size Full-Turtleneck comfortably. I prefer the RuffNecks size in the mock-neck style.

Mock-neck Dickeys

5.1.08-- Hi Rick: The dickies arrived today, and want to tell you how very pleased I am with them. Just what I had in mind! So thank you so much. Will certainly be in touch... June

4.12.08 -- I received the package today. The dickies are sharp and stylish. I tried them on and they fit perfectly. Thank You, Jerry

03.24.08 -- When I got to work, the package was in my In Box. Thank you so much. I just know he will enjoy these and I didn't mind the packaging. Once again thanks for the dickeys! Corliss

3.14.08 -Hi Rick, I received the package today and with everything as ordered. They are perfect - great colors, fit and material! Thank you again. Judy

3.08.08-- Your products are BY FAR the best thing I have found available for people like myself who’ve had a total laryngectomy and need to wear a high neckline YEAR ROUND. Your product has been the single piece of clothing that has allowed me to still go out in public with confidence knowing I look pretty normal and is very comfortable on my skin that has been beat up pretty badly through the multiple treatments in the neck to kill head and neck cancer. David A.

3.04.08 - My dad received them yesterday and said they look great! Thanks so much, Rick!

12.11.07 -- The package arrived today. Well pleased! The ruff-necks for my 16 1/2" plumbing were the way to go, they fit just right. You'll be hearing more from me. Regards, WDR

12.03.07 --Dear Rick, Our son got the dickies. He was very happy with them. Many thanks. Kristi

11.26.07 -- Hi Rick, I received the package yesterday. I was extremely pleased with the product and the entire process. I'll be back for more! Thank you! Judy

11.16.07 - Its me again. Loved the Dickies. I need 4 more turtleneck dickies in Red, Black, Orange and White. Donna

11.12.07 -- Would you please send me 4 of the black full turtleneck dickeys, the ones you sent me last year are great, these are for some friends that want them. Thanks! Gary

10.11.07 -- I used to wear these things 35 years ago when I lived and worked in Alaska. Strange why you can't find these things in stores and nobody even knows what you are talking about when you ask for them. You can't even find them listed in ANY outdoor sportsmen's product catalogs. They can be a real life saver when you hunt in the cold northern states. Thanks to Google I found you! I wish you great success with these very fine products. Richard

10/08/07... Are those colors available? Kindly let me know what other information you need. I ordered two of your t-necks last year, and
two wasn't nearly enough---they are marvelous! Thanks, Marianne ("Anne")

Jennifer

04.05.07 -- I received the dickeys and am happy with them. I too agree with your method of mailing. (Rick's note: we recycle our packing boxes.) Most of the packaging is not necessary unless the item is fragile. Thanks. I will order more from you... Judith in Minnesota

Thank you, Thank you, thank you for my Dickies they are wonderful. So soft that I do not even feel they are around my neck. And I have very sensitive skin around my neck. Your service was very fast and professional and now I have them for my trip next week.

Thanks again and I'm sure we will do more business. JEH.

01/29/06... Time to order more Dickeys. I frequently wear them in over air conditioned operating rooms under my scrubs. Even fully gowned and gloved, they feel comfortable. Please send three more white full turtleneck-regular size... Staten Island, NY

We would like to order three more and am e-mailing for confirmation of colors. In the regular size full turtleneck, we would like 1 Navy, 1 ivory and 1 cornflower blue.

12/24/05 - The turtleneck dickie I ordered arrived just when you said it would! That means it will be under the Christmas tree for my husband, who by the way has been searching for years for a turtleneck dickie. It looks like the one I ordered will do the trick. I really appreciate the way you do business. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! Patricia

12/23/05 Hi Rick, I just got my order and the dickeys are great! Thank you for sending them right away, in time for Christmas. You are fabulous! I hope you are having a great holiday season, in spite of the rush, and have a Happy New Year! Peace, Jane

Thanks again. Laurie

12.15.05 - Hello Rick, Just letting you know, that I got my package, just like you said; and I would just like to say thank you very much, and my Honey likes them very much! They are a very good product just like everyone has said!!! Once again, Thank you! Tim S.

12/05/05 - This is a repeat order, I ordered a few from you a couple years ago for my fiancé's father & he needs more. He was thrilled I was able to find them at all b/c they're so difficult to find in the stores if you can find them for men at all. Carla

11.01.05 - Hello Rick, To echo a recent testimonial: "Just wanted to let you know that I just received the dickeys, and the fit is excellent! Colors are great ~ really rich!

Thanks for offering a great product at a competitive price.

09/20/05 I sent your dickeys to my mother last year. She loved them and said they are the best and most comfortable she has ever worn. I would like to purchase 3 more for the fall in orange, olive and khaki. Do you have these ?

The turtle necks arrived and I am wearing one now. It's nice on cold days in the San Francisco Bay area.

Rick, my order arrived here at the office in the morning mail. Quick service!! Thanks. I’ve got the navy one on already under my lighter blue work shirt, and it looks and feels great. After I model for my wife, I’m sure I’ll want more. Dave
