Love this balaclava!

Warm, soft and stretchy. Great fit! Also easy to put on and take off and doesn’t make your hair static.

Warm and comfortable

Great quality and the fleece on the inside feels really soft and is warm. I wore it skiing in March in Banff and it kept my face warm. However, it does get a bit wet around the mouth opening area and doesn’t dry very quickly. So keep that in mind!

Light balaclava

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I always wear a balaclava skiing. This one is light weight. Has a nice soft feel. Fits under a ski helmet seamlessly. Washes nicely. I hang dry. One improvement. It needs a little more stretch around the mouth/face area. Sags after wear. Maybe some Lycra in the wool? Nice color. Looks rich.

Great Balaclava!

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Really great for super cold conditions - thin and breathable. I would highly recommend it for cold & windy conditions!

Multi-use: open faced or full face coverage

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Nice piece under helmet (ski or biking) - nice to be able to pull down face covering when it's a little warmer, and pull it up when it's cold. Really light and thin, so it's great under helmets or heavier tuques. I personally prefer the IB neckwarmer for everyday use and on cold days, and it tends to fog goggles less than the Balaclava. Balaclava is tighter on face, but fogs goggles more. Bottom line - neck warmer + balaclava and you're good to any conditions.

Great balaclava

Fantastic breathable under-helmet layer

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I wear a balaclava under my helmet when cycling in the winter but have trouble with the lack of breathability in polar fleece varieties. The Icebreaker balaclava is breathable and lightweight yet warm. Highly recommend!

For cold days of downhill skiing

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Purchased this for cold days of downhill skiing (-20C) and it works very well to keep my face warm.
