BLACKSTRAP Hood Balaclava Face Mask – Cold Weather Ski Mask, Breathable, Moisture-Wicking, and Helmet-Compatible - One Size

EDIT: Year two of using these and I’m still in love with them. I have 3 different ones now. They’ve held up so well to many ski trips and they keep my sensitive ears warm and protected. I just wash them on cold and hang dry them to ensure they stay in good shape.First time using a blackstrap balaclava and I absolutely love it. The material feels so high quality and nice. It fits really nicely on my head (I wear a size large ski helmet.) I love how easily you can pull the mouth piece up and down, it’s great for Covid too as the mouth part has a double layer. The mouth part has a meshy type layer on the inside which really helps keep it from sticking to your face when it gets all moist from your breath. It kept the cold wind off my face really nicely. Great for day and evening skiing. If I was gonna go night skiing on a really cold night I might get the thicker version of this for extra warmth. This regular thickness one still kept me warm too tho. I’m definitely going to eventually buy a couple of these in different colors. Really worth the price and I love all the awesome colors and patterns.

Comfortable, not excessively warm

These are the thin type. Ski helmet fits well. Adds a little warmth. Great wind breaker. Doesn't fog up googles. Easy to pull on and off front face piece to talk or have a drink. Comfortable. I tried a lot of gaiters and face covers before getting these. None worked. My search is over.

I bought this for skiing and it did not disappoint. As any face masks, by the end of the day it is moist but it works great, it’s light weight yet very warm and keeps wind burn away. I love the fact that you can pull it down below your nose and put it back up without having to adjust your helmet. Maybe a little pricey compared to other masks on the market, but it is definitely a great mask!

Fit my large head great! Kept me warm. I liked how long it is to go around the collar of my ski top and keep out the wind. I also liked the movable face piece, easy to move up and down with my ski gloves.

I wore this for snowmobiling. they are breathable, but it definitely fogged my glasses and goggles. It was very compatible while wearing a helmet and I felt like my face and neck were warmer with it on, even though this was not fleece. Overall I do believe it is a tad over-priced, but I get it. I would use this as a gaiter, but it does not stay on my face while covering my nose, unless I have my hair in a high ponytail since the hair will get in the way of it staying in place. I found that it was a little big for me, but it was definitely comfortable. I think this is great for people who are in the sun alot or require the use of a helmet often. It seemed durable and the prints are pretty neat.

This is great, love it, perhaps my favorite ski purchase of the past few years. Keeps my face warm, doesn't fog up my goggles, looks sharp.

Beats any other gator or balaclava ive owned. Stays tight. Doesnt get soaked and freeze. Solid for the midwest!
