Great for the cold!
Me and my fiancé got these to go to Colorado and they are a life saver ! We went snow tubing and hiking and the winds were blowing 30 mph and this mask saved our face, the wind resistance was amazing! Very warm and comfortable. It’s adjustable so you don’t have to worry about it not fitting. Overall the quality is great!

Warm, durable, adjustable
These adjustable masks are perfect if you are going on a ski trip, work in cold conditions, or if you want a little extra coverage of your neck and head. I love that you can make this mask act as a hood or you can pull it down to make it into a scarf. This is great for both men and woman. Definitely purchase if you are a person that is always cold like me. The thickness of this mask holds in your body heat well allowing you to stay warm in cold weather conditions.

A solid 4/5
So, I like to bike to work. In weather ranging from 30-50F with a movement speed of about 15-20mph (yes freedom units here), it is a decent baclava. Not perfect, but decent. The three points of detraction for me are honestly pretty petty. The top isnt long enough to save your forehead unless you stretch the material a bit. This can be solved with a beanie underneath, but I feel that defeats the point. Honestly there are other styles but I got this specifically because it is of a warm material (I wont name names but this is the 4th baclava I've gone through and best option for me personally). The other detraction point is the cords. Its different from what most people expect but the plastic bits are the adjustments, not the cord itself. This isnt a bad design but if you're tightening it up, like myself, this leaves awkwardly hanging loops of cord just there on the side. No means of tying them back unless you're awkwardly tucking them in a spot near your cheeks. The last bit is just me being picky. The back of the thing is just a smidge too short. Not really a big deal unless you're turning your head or looking down. It will leave a bit of a gap in certain positions. Likely not an issue for a smaller person but on myself, 5'11 - 175lb male, it is noticeable.Still a solid 4/5 baclava; and I feel there is not really one out there that deserves a solid 5.

Perfect for working outdoors!
I bought this for my husband since he works outside, and I really liked it. It covers his face well, keeps him warm, and it’s easy for him to move or take off if needed. The fabric is warm and comfortable—I loved it!

Passible, but not remarkable (or close to it)
SummaryOverall, it's a fine mask that'll perform at its highest potential when it's not toyed with a great deal. Activity, especially the kinds of movements a skier or snowboarder experience, will likely result in you playing with it, repositioning it and just wrestling with it when you'd rather be focused on the task at hand.Would I buy this again? No. To know why, please read on on.Look, Feel & FitIt's a soft, fleece garment that loosely fits over and around a typical head and face. I got the two-pack for my 18-year-old son and his girlfriend. They tried them on in front of me and they each appeared to have significant space to manipulate/adjust the mask to their nuanced face and head measurements. The drawstring assembly that permits the wearer to synch-up the mask to achieve a sealed fit around the parameters of the face just plain suck. They do not draw-down tightly, but worse, tend to reorient the face hole in such a way that it bunches inconsistently and in places awkwardly around the rim of one's face, rather than form a smooth, flat seal. Using the drawstrings will ripple in the end and vaguely accomplish a snugger seal, but a far from strong seal.Snow Recreation/SportsThis mask is far to bulky and as I mentioned above, bunchy to be easily worn beneath one's ski/snowboarding helmet. My son attempted to place his helmet on his head, overtop of the mask, and he immediately shook his head, "no." The mask is simply not thin enough to make wearing both the mast and a helmet physically/mechanically possible in any way that is feels natural. Were you to use both at the same time, from my experience, you won't achieve comfortable wearability.WarmthThey are quite warm under reasonable cold conditions. It's fleece, so if winds reach top-of-mountain severity, I would not expect this mask to fully shield your ears, neck and face from bitter gusting. Though in its defense, what mask will really do this perfectly. It seems quite capable of warmth, as fleece garments tend to me, no more or less than any experience you've had with other fleece clothing. I guess I'm saying, have you used fleece? Then you know what to expect from this mask's warmth quotient.Durability and ConstructionThe drawstrings are not assembled correctly. There is a single photo left by another reviewer that expresses perfectly how the drawstrings only synch one side, yet the drawstring emerges from the mask through two separate eyelets, making that it can only be drawn-down on only one of them a clear design and/or manufacturing QA issue. Other than that, it seems like a well-stitched fleece mask.

Good Purchase
This was really good for my dad. It was winter time and it was very helpful. And can be positioned in different ways. The thickness was there, wind resistance was good. Fabric was good quality. Mu dad has a very small head so month things dont fit so that was a bit small fr him. But he's different lol. So it shoukd fit well. The colour was as is. Good.

The worst ever!
Okay boy am I tired of this kind of quality!This was the worst balaclava or hat or anything that should keep you warm!The side toggles that should scrunch up to tighten the sides AREN'T CONNECTED! So they just hang there ridiculously.There is no neck elastic or toggle so the neck area (which isn’t that long) lets cold air right up into your neck and face area!The joy of holding your balaclava close to your face to stay warm which completely immobilizes you because you’re using both hands to keep it tight to your head in freezing cold windsIt was a joke to be honestWorse than buying something from a street vendor
