Thin material, stamps do not work well as face coverings

Doesn't feel like wool, but like the fabric of a t-shirt. The picture is not representative of what you will receive. As soon as it is pulled over the face and parting, the neck hardly closes. In addition, the elasticity of the fabric ensures movement. Virtually not wind resistant due to the thinness of the material. It appears that the purpose of this product is to act as a buffer between a motorcycle helmet and your skin, rather than as a face cover in cold weather. However, in cold-onlyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Machine wash cold, gentle wash with similar items. Without bleach. There is no oxygen. Tumble dry low.
Cons
  • Expensive insurance

Very effective but oversized

I live in North Dakota and for the last month we've had over 60 inches of snow and then arctic air. So I had to be outside when it snowed, when it was -20ยบ and colder. You need to understand this context to understand my review. Firstly, when it arrived it smelled so bad I couldn't even taste it without getting sick. It was as if he had been dipped in oil. I had to wash it before trying it. I washed it in cold water and let it air dry to keep it from shrinking. The first wash wasn't enough toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • ADJUSTABLE FITTED: One size for multiple uses. Wear as shown, covering your nose and mouth. Pull down slightly to open your nose or nose and mouth. Pull the top back, put your head through the opening and wear it as a neck warmer. Adapt to your needs on the go.
Cons
  • Long time

Light protection for moderate cold.

Minus33 makes great things out of merino wool. Their thin, weighted shirts are my favorite cycling shirts even in the summer. Yes, wool can then be worn. Definitely breathes as well or even better than today's breathable jerseys. I even like it better. I wear the same lightweight long sleeve shirts for my winter commute (in layers) and stay nice and warm down to 20F. I ordered the balaclava knowing it would be the same soft wool material as their other products but in a lighter fit. . It hasn't

Pros

Cons
  • Vulgarity

The product is much "thinner " than expected but works great.

I recently bought this balaclava for bear, deer and elk season when I got tired of fiddling with the neck edging. I originally looked at other companies but didn't want anything too bulky and I really like Minus33's color choices so I thought I'd give them a try. Also, I really hate it when products burn their logos every square inch or make them stand out so everyone knows what you're wearing and you look like a billboard. I like high quality, discreet pieces and this fits right in. When theโ€ฆ
