Light is right
The Ninjaclava is the way to go, you can use the facemask when it's really cold or simply pull it down if you want more air. Great for COLD weather running or those long chairlift rides. And if you need to rob a bank...

Lightweight is the way to go
Skiing in Washington State, we sometimes get big and heavy flakes. I used to suck them into the back of my throat during big storms...which took away from the fun. Buttoning up behind the Ninjaclava, I can still breathe but the flakes are filtered out. On warmer days, the opening is big enough to expose my whole face with no conflict with my helmet straps. I have another thinker balaclava, but now I never use it.

Another superb product from OR
Even with high expectations of OR's product, they continue to impress. This balaclava is warm (almost too warm to use while running in temps as low as 15F), is great with the wind (even though it is not made of windstopper material), is comfortable, and [con-vert]s into many different coverage options. Keep it up OR.

really great!
When I opened up that box I was surprised how thin the material was. When I put it on I saw that the material was perfect, easy to breathe through and yet rather warm, even against strong winds. I love that the top pulls back to be just a face mask/neck gator, so I don't completely scare my neighbors.

Great light balaclava
This balaclava is light and warm and suprisingly great in high winds. It converts to a beanie neck gator face mask and many other options. Great item you won't be sorry.
