By MountainLover from All Over, CO on 11/15/2009 Pros: Breathable, Dries Easily, Good Fit, Good Protection, Warm Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Overall good product. Seam stick outs inside down the middle which is a little uncomfortable, but nothing that is very bothersome. Overall I would recommend it, especially for the price.
Very soft material and nice on the face By unconventional from Placer county, USA on 11/14/2009 Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The balaclava fits well for both, my lady and myself (two different head sizes). The material is good but is a little thin for the "expedition" weight advertising. Not bad for the price.
By Mountain Man from Boonville, CA on 11/11/2009 Pros: Dries Easily, Good Fit, Good Protection, Warm Describe Yourself: Advanced Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is the perfect accessory for riding an ATV while working in winter conditions. Wind chill can do serious harm when the weather turns cold and this cover protects you. I consider it mandatory apparel when temps fall below freezing.
By climber and skier from mid-atlantic on 11/03/2009 Cons: Must stretch it a bit Best Uses: Under ice or ski helmet Describe Yourself: Advanced Gear Usage: Ice Climbing, Skiing Sizing: Feels half size too small Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: For the price, this isn't half bad. The seam does go down the front, but it actually doesn't bother me. I have a big head, so I must stretch it a bit, but that's easy. And you can just toss this in the wash w/o worry. I think this is best for when you want face protection, but don't want to be too terribly warm about it (i.e., you're exerting yourself, and don't want windburn).
By Morning Mom from New Haven, CT on 10/28/2009 Pros: Breathable, Good Fit, Good Protection, Warm Best Uses: Walks on frosty mornings Describe Yourself: Getting Started Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have only had the chance to use it once so far. I don't like the cold, and discomfort + exercise = no exercise. So I completed my morning walk happy and warm. I am wondering if I will need to pick up a heavier one as CT winter approaches.
By Whitewash from North Idaho on 10/27/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Good Fit, Good Protection, Warm Best Uses: Backcountry, Cross Country, Downhill Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living, Winter Sports Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Looks great (for a balaclava). Definitely warm and soft. Haven't gotten a chance to put it to good use yet, but I suspect it will live up to its "expedition" weight.
One reviewer mentioned they didn't like how the seam rested on the nose...the only thing I can guess is that they were wearing it upside-down or didn't realize that it can either rest on the nose or be pulled down under the chin.
By Mt Kili Girl from hartford, ct on 09/12/2009 Describe Yourself: Advanced Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living, Winter Sports Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: The seam sits on your nose & lips. I find it very uncomfortable.
By R from New York on 03/15/2009 Pros: Breathable, Good Fit, Good Protection Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: i wear it under my helmet...works great
By Skimom from Warwick, NY on 03/14/2009 Pros: Breathable, Dries Easily, Good Fit, Good Protection, Warm Best Uses: Backcountry, Casual Wear, Cross Country, Downhill, Freestyle Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living, Winter Sports Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This fits really great and stretches to conform to different size heads. It is lightweight and breathable, but very warm. You barely feel it under your helmet but it makes a world of difference in warmth. I would highly recommend it, and at a great price!

Very warm and fit well.
