Expedition Hood Balaclava

Love it! Just skiid two very different days: one snowy and windy, one beautiful but COLD bluebird day, and my new balaclava kept me warm and comfy both days! Comfortable to wear, easy on and off and cute to boot! I think the ONLY downside is that the fabric tends to gather in your mouth when you talk, but I think that’s just the nature of the beast. IMO, it’s a small price to pay for protection from the elements. I’ll be buying another for a spare.

Cold sunny day lovin

I like this balaclava for days that aren’t bitter cold it does a great job keeping the wind off my face and warm on the lift. In my experience it was a harder mask to talk through and the dual layers always got stuck in my mouth and was a little uncomfortable. But hey, that was just me. And that’s the only bad thing I have to say about this! Also it fits my face/goggles well and don’t have any fogging issues once I get it all adjusted over my nose and under my goggles. 4 stars have recommended to friends.

Works great. I think I have 6 Blackstraps now.

After trying different masks these have been the best out of the bunch.
