Best head covering out there!
"I love this thing. Fits well for my medium sized noggin and great for breathing and unobscured views. I like this more than the neck gator; as it stays put and keeps my whole head, neck and face warm."

"I gave this as a Christmas gift to a lineman who works at times in blowing wind and temp that reach -20° weather. He says it’s the best winter cover for his head, face and neck that he’s owned. And he’s owned several. He’s thanked me several times for the gift."
"This mask isn't as portrayed in the description. Very thin and light weight. Would work great for mild weather but not cold."
"It is what it is. . super thin, early season."
"I love all the Kuiu products I have. This is super comfortable to wear and provides some good cold protection but the fit around the mouth/ nose is a little too loose fitting for my liking. Great otherwise"
"Top Quality and super rugged. I have short legs and the availibility of different inseams makes pants fit perfect. Kuiu validates the saying "buy once, cry once". Keep up the good work Kuiu."
"This Balaclava is ok. I only used it one. The only issue is if you wear glasses and have the Balaclava over your nose. Your glasses will fog. I pulled it it down under my nose and it seemed to work ok."
"At first I was worried this balacava would be too thin as I compared it to my old wool NATO one. Instead this was very warm and very comfortable, not itchy like traditional wool. I really like the breathing holes. This was a great value."
"This Balaclava is mostly perfect. It’s fairly lightweight but it’s perfect for that reason. Usually you don’t need the bulky neck gators, just something to provide an extra layer and this is coming from a hunter in North Dakota - it gets cold. Also light enough for warm weather or in a blind and I like the fact the logo is darker/non-descript when concealment in a blind is the goal and you’re not wearing a stocking cap."
"Nice"
