Great price great quality
I put this on my head to go outside in the cold cause I got some horses that are acting like fools and I was like oh wow my ears aren’t cold and it felt like my head was in a nice warm sleeping bag. I was so excited that I wasn’t gonna get frostbite and that I only had to spend under $10 for two of these lovely comfortable Hoods. I definitely will be buying more of these. They’re very economical cheap and the material is great if you don’t want your little head to get cold buy one of these thank you friend.

Warm hat for winter
Warm hat with good quality for winter to protect my face from the cold weather conditions, lightweight, soft and comfortable to wear, and the adjustable design with secure fit for different face shapes and sizes; the fogging of goggles is one of the concern for me.

Liked it.
It was very warm but a little bit to big. But worth the money

Passible, but not remarkable (or close to it)
SummaryOverall, it's a fine mask that'll perform at its highest potential when it's not toyed with a great deal. Activity, especially the kinds of movements a skier or snowboarder experience, will likely result in you playing with it, repositioning it and just wrestling with it when you'd rather be focused on the task at hand.Would I buy this again? No. To know why, please read on on.Look, Feel & FitIt's a soft, fleece garment that loosely fits over and around a typical head and face. I got the two-pack for my 18-year-old son and his girlfriend. They tried them on in front of me and they each appeared to have significant space to manipulate/adjust the mask to their nuanced face and head measurements. The drawstring assembly that permits the wearer to synch-up the mask to achieve a sealed fit around the parameters of the face just plain suck. They do not draw-down tightly, but worse, tend to reorient the face hole in such a way that it bunches inconsistently and in places awkwardly around the rim of one's face, rather than form a smooth, flat seal. Using the drawstrings will ripple in the end and vaguely accomplish a snugger seal, but a far from strong seal.Snow Recreation/SportsThis mask is far to bulky and as I mentioned above, bunchy to be easily worn beneath one's ski/snowboarding helmet. My son attempted to place his helmet on his head, overtop of the mask, and he immediately shook his head, "no." The mask is simply not thin enough to make wearing both the mast and a helmet physically/mechanically possible in any way that is feels natural. Were you to use both at the same time, from my experience, you won't achieve comfortable wearability.WarmthThey are quite warm under reasonable cold conditions. It's fleece, so if winds reach top-of-mountain severity, I would not expect this mask to fully shield your ears, neck and face from bitter gusting. Though in its defense, what mask will really do this perfectly. It seems quite capable of warmth, as fleece garments tend to me, no more or less than any experience you've had with other fleece clothing. I guess I'm saying, have you used fleece? Then you know what to expect from this mask's warmth quotient.Durability and ConstructionThe drawstrings are not assembled correctly. There is a single photo left by another reviewer that expresses perfectly how the drawstrings only synch one side, yet the drawstring emerges from the mask through two separate eyelets, making that it can only be drawn-down on only one of them a clear design and/or manufacturing QA issue. Other than that, it seems like a well-stitched fleece mask.

Stained and nasty
Mine came with yellow stains which smellee and the plastic it was in was ripped open. Someone used tape to seal it.

Good. Comfortable
Bought due to the fact that we're probably going to have to wear face coverings in certain situations for a while, but I didn't want to use regular PPE masks as the NHS is having a hard enough time trying to source them for themselves. This is pretty good. It's around 15x10 inches, and very stretchy. It's comfortable and breathable. Mine did smell dreadful when it arrived, so I had had to wash it, but now it's absolutely fine.You can wear in lots of ways, and can double it up easily for extra protection. I know it's not designed to stop viruses, but something is better than nothing.

Comfortable - minimal maskinging protection
This is a really comfortable snood which reliably stays up thanks to the clever ear loops.The material is silky and quite thin, so it's pretty comfortable and not too hot even when worn indoors. Worked perfectly at the cinema, for instance, where I needed to wear a face-covering for several hours.I also use mine under a crash helmet on a motorbike, and it's great for raising over my nose when I enter shops.HOWEVER this material is so fine that I doubt it has much protective effect. it complies with the requirement to cover your face, but I wouldn't rely on it to protect either myself or the people around me. So I only use it for dash-n-grab situations - or, like the cinema - where there's a huge space and very few people.It would be suitable for public transport, say.

Good product, but well overpriced
I bought this for my husband to protect his face when working in the garden on cold/windy days, which aggravates his Rosacea. It was very expensive, but there was very little choice available and with the weather getting colder I eventually decided I would just have to fork out for it. I was really annoyed when a few days after purchasing, I noticed an Amazon advert for one that was about a third of the price, which hadn't come up when I was looking to buy. Having said all of that it does the job I bought it for.

Perfect for hot environments!
I have wanted a facemask to wear during my 12 hour work shifts in a factory. The factory temperature is always around 50 degrees so wanted something thin and breathable and this was perfect. Would certainly recommend to people who work in hot environments!

Would recommend
Fantastic quality, well made and warm while being suprisingly light. Also very well priced. No more sweaty polyester or acrilyic for me! Have now ordered the beanie for myself as well. Should be well equipped for all weather!
