Decent product, but some room for improvement.
The fabric is great for staying dry and warm in the 35-50 degree range, but the seams are in bad places. I usually have a nice red indent on my forehead from the seam when I take my helmet off. The eye cutout is also a bit too small. (Admittedly, I have a large head) It would also help if the balaclava was a little longer to keep it tucked in my jacket. I will probably try another balaclava down the road, but for the moment it works.

Great Buy !
Overall a great tool to have on you. Especially in Texas weather you never know what will happen in the next hours. I was riding on a fairly cool day it wasn’t cold but later on going back home, the temp dropped to low 40's. I was warm with my gear except for my face. I pulled out my HJC Balaclava (had never worn one before) put it on and I can say it saved me from freezing. Great snug fit and keeps you warm and protected from the wind. Only downside, the cut out for the eyes is too narrow and rides up touching the corner of my eyes and that irritated me a bit. But I was thankful for the warmth it gave me. Good buy for 12 bucks!
