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.
