EXIOWinter Neck Warmer Gaiter/Balaclava (1Pack or 2Pack) - Windproof Face Mask for Ski, Snowboard

This thing is super fantastic! Easy to breathe through as I have an allergy to the cold and makes being outside much easier on very cold days!So, that’s nice.

Works well and breathable

Very comfortable and high quality and breathable. I use it for snowboarding. However, not meant for small/medium head sizes. I am a 5 ft 11 in male about 165 pounds but I guess I have a smaller head (I wear a medium sized helmet). The neck warmer can stay on my face when I have my goggles strapped over them. But it’s kinda loose and will slowly slip off my face on its own if nothing is holding it in place.

I used this neck warmer during early January, and it did a great job keeping me warm in winter conditions, but still breathable enough to stay comfortable.

If your reading this far you need to just add to cart. I've owned and used a bunch of different neck sleeves. From the thin, stretchy kind you see literally everywhere, (Which are great for certain situations) to the very thick insulated ones (which are best for very cold weather). This one is a happy medium. It's not too thin, nor too thick. It's well made and doesn't feel cheap. It basically feels like a big semi-thick sports/compression sock you would get from puma, under armor etc. It's elastic enough to stay put, but not enough to literally squeeze your face & be uncomfortable. Which is great for us who wear these while putting in work and need it to stay put. A GREAT feature of this is the area around your mouth is perferated with tiny slots so you can actually breath well while wearing it, which most others do not have. Also it's pretty good looking. Looks a little tactical and a little cool because of the subdued logo's everywhere. And the black & grey combination just looks good. It's thick enough to keep your neck & face/ears warm enough if you pull it up. It basically acts as a barrier between your skin and the weather. And its even great to wear just around your neck on days/situations were you don't need it covering your face. I hope this brand comes out with more patterns & color's because I would buy more of them as thats how much I like it. (Not sure if they do, just haven't seen them). And just a last tip. If you put the front just over your nose & pull the back up to cover your ears at the right angle as to not block your eyes, you can put on your hat or beenie on and get a lot of protection and the hat will actually keep it in place and not let it slip down. Which is how I wear mine a lot. Match this setup with a hoodie with the hood up and your good to go, rain, cold, snow, etc. I'm not saying this is best for extreme environments. That would call for a thick insulated type or hood type. But for most situations it's very adequate. I hope this review helps explain this enough to be helpful. Order one! You won't be disappointed. 🥷

Got this for ice fishing and snow plowing. If the weather is above 10 degrees it works pretty good. The unvented parts work well to keep you warm. Only thing I was not a fan off was the breathing mesh in the front is very open. To where you can see someone's teeth through it. Does absolutely nothing for breaking the wind. And also, my goggles still fog unless I exhale down.

This has a specific area that is vented over your mouth and nose so when you breath out it goes OUT and is less likely to fog glasses or goggles. Very nice for mountain biking! It's not the most insulated everywhere else. So this is best for active outdoor winter sports where you are creating your own heat and need it to breath well. Fit was GREAT! Covers your ears and stays in place very well. If they made another version that was a bit warmer I'd buy that! As it is I'll keep and use this one but also look for another one that is more insulated for night mountain bike rides!!

***UPDATE***I'm leaving the 4 star rating, because I still wish it was a little bit tighter, I have a smaller head. I found out I am able to wear this with the back a little bit lower so the front isn't up so high; and it still won't fall off. I usually wear this with a hat(tobogan, ski cap, whatever you want to call it). I may pull it down while I run or adjust it and remove the hat depending on weather. It's gotten colder: 20-30 degrees in wet weather and I still love it. I mostly run with the mesh part in front as designed but there was one time i wore it backwards for a more closed mask and I didn't have any problems, it was definitely more restrictive. I love that it has qualities of the more rigid face masks, but it is still a soft gaiter that can just be pulled down around the neck.*****I have only used this in 40 degree weather so far. It hasn't gotten colder yet. I love it. The only reason why it lost a star was that i wish they had different sizes or that it was a little tighter. It hasn't fallen off at all while doing tempo runs or yassos but sometimes i worry about it because it feels a little loose and low on my nose. I do have a smaller head. Despite that, It works great. The breathable portion is awesome! Best of all, if you find that isn't your thing, the shape is perfectly uniform so you can switch it around and have the regular fabric over your face. I tried looking for a cheaper face covering for early morning cold weather running. I finally found this and saw it didn't have a lot of reviews but figured i would try it. I love it. It keeps my neck and face warm and protected from the cold and wind. I like their idea of the weird breathable mesh in front of the face. It allows more airflow while keeping you warmer. I hated the cold air going directly into my lungs when i was running without it. I'll edit this if i need to as it gets colder.
