Good balaclava for physical work in extreme cold
Ive been using this all winter, i really like it i use it for skiing and walking outdoors in -45 to -50 temperatures, it allows easy breathing, is soft agaisnt the face and its thinner breathable material on the top and back of my head keeps moisture and temperature regulated when doing heavy activities.

Good for sub arctic.
This is a great balaclava, it feels great against the skin in extreme cold (-45 to -50 celcius). I dont use it for snow mobileing just used it snow shoeing and skiing so far. The "snorkel" really keeps breath moisture away from your face and goggles.

Hated it
I bought this based on many recommendations and the second I put it on I knew I would not like it but tried it out anyways. Maybe my head is just not big enough for it, I'm not sure, but I found it was super drafty and allowed a constant stream of air on my chin. I took it off within the first 5kms and went back to my cheap thin one because even that was better.

It prevents fogging.
I aquired this balaclava to wear with my CKX Titan helmet. I had an issue with my goggles fogging continously. Since using this balaclava, the fogging issue is resolved. The downfall is that i get alot of cold air coming up the snokel. Since my goggles stay clear, i deal with it. Some say the balaclava is pricey, but i suppose its a comprise.
Cheers

Great product
It’s windproof as advertises. No problems being cold or goggles fogging even at -35°C.
