REVIEW
I ordered size that was too big but it worked fine as well.
Great balaclava for cold and windy environments!
Great hood, very warm with good wind protection. Could use a little more velcro to allow more fitting flexibility.
Great construction poorly sized.
If you are looking for a warm and versatile face mask this may be for you. Just make sure you order a size smaller than you typically wear. I purchased this after reading a great review in Backpacker magazine. The thing that I like most about this particular face mask is that you can open up the mouth area to drink water or get some better ventilation. Unfortunately they did not have the size I needed in stock to fit my melon shaped head. I tried a large but it was too loose in the eye area. This would cause the mask to flap like a loose tent fly once I got into the wind. I love OR gear and would definitely buy this if they had my size.
