Review on πŸ”₯ RaceQuip Black Large FR Single Layer Hood Balaclava SFI 3.3 Fire Retardant Underwear Head Sock - 433991 by Christopher Theriault

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Comfort is paramount.

(Disclaimer, I removed the RaceQuip logo on the front with a seam ripper. But rest assured it's the same item.) First, it's a great headdress. I'm going to use it for a cosplay that includes a helmet and gas mask over what I've tested. Easy compatibility with both. It's thin enough to fit other head accessories like racing helmets, which it's obviously designed for. It's also VERY light on your face. Firstly, the material is very soft and feels comfortable. No annoying seam over the mouth. It has the perfect fit, snug enough to hug your face easily but loose enough to allow your mouth to move freely. The eye is also well cut. Big enough that there is little to no obstruction to your vision, but still enough material to ensure it fits on your nose without worrying about it falling off. You can also let the bow fall below your chin if you like. The neck cover also seems to be the perfect length. Just enough to cover entire neck and tuck under shirt. And finally, fantastic breathability. Light and easy. Everything about this hat looks like it's been carefully and thoughtfully designed for comfort and fit, and everything about it falls into the Goldilocks zone. Precisely. He does exactly what he has to do. If I ever lose that one or it gets damaged in any way, I know where I'm going in the second round.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Some issues
