This balaclava works very well on cold days keeping the cold sting off without feeling overbearing at all.

great for those cold winter mornings
Keeps my nose warm and helps keep my hair in my helmet. As mentioned in other reviews only issue is the face opening is slightly baggy so the mouth area flaps a little even under my full face helmet, but I tuck it in a little at the sides to fix.
Warm face on my early morning rides. Super good value
Wanted something to keep my head and neck warm, create a buffer between the helmet and help with the wind noise at speed. Very happy with this balaclava. Not too hot for warmer days, not excessively thick and bulky. Very happy
This keeps my neck especially warm and cuts the noise slightly under my helmet. Great for the price and takes no room to keep in your bag or whatever.
Only issue for me is the face opening is slightly baggy so the mouth area flaps a little even under my full face helmet. There is a seam there which would be annoying if it was against my mouth anyway
Great product, I have only used it on short runs so far, but it has worked well in keeping my head toastie

Keeps me warm, fits me well & can be used as a neck warmer - great
Excellent product @ an excellent price
Very warm balaclava and great very delivery
Have used this product for past month and find it reduces wind noise and keeps my head and neck warm in cold temp
I prefer an open face helmet, one of the downfalls being raindrops on the nose at high speeds, this does a great job at keeping the wind and rain out, every rider should have this or something similar, especially this cheap, can't go wrong.
Great balaclavas and real quick service.
awesome value and keeps my neck and face warm on those cold mornings on the ride to work.can be worn over face or under chin.great product.
For the price this is a fantastic product. Cuts down the wind noise when riding and is reasonably warm. It doesn't slip down over my nose, nor is the stitching irritating when worn like other people have complained about. The only time it slips down is when I put my helmet on, but once pulled back up it stays in place perfectly. I'd highly recommend purchasing this balaclava for cold mornings and winter riding.
Quite warm but seam is not just at the mouth it runs rite round to cut your head in half vertically. I shave my head, and after 2hrs wearing this it gives me a headache.
Fits great and holds my hair down at the same time, stitching is at the mouth but if it bothers me too much I'll just turn it inside out

I bought this because my helmet leaves my hair "grooved". The balaclava reduced these to only one groove, or if worn inside out, none. It slightly eased fitting the helmet, slightly reduced noise, and I use it on my early morning bicycle rides for ear warmth

Received the balaclava which was quick by the way,yeh the stitching sticks out on the nose & yes it does fall off your nose,however if it's not fitting right your not wearing it right for the money not bloody bad.
Very effective at keeping wind and drizzle away from your neck and keeps the head and ears warm.
I can't get it to sit around the bridge of my nose, it tends to slip down over a short amount of time.
But for the price, worth every penny on those chilly mornings.

At first I thought it was a bit thin..."how will this keep me warm." But it worked wonderfully well. Keeps those little drafts round your neck and visor at bay. It is a little difficult putting your helmet on but I developed my own technique. It's cheap and well worth it.
it works just fine, the only problem is you'll always get fog on your visor

Balaclava his stitches seam which runs down the centre. The seam is annoying as it sits on the nose and lips.
Dramatically increases ride comfort at night during these cold evenings. It extends all the way down my neck into the jacket collar, stops the wind well and keeps me feeling warm. It's thin enough not to interfere with helmet fit.
Only frustration is that the seam runs straight down the centre of the face and tickles your mouth and nose. I guess I'll get used to it but I can't imagine why it was made that way.
I bought one a few years back and still use it. Notice the difference on the ears and face in the cold. The seam being straight down the middle is annoying and I find it impossible to wear unless you turn it inside out. I was hoping they may have rectified this by now as I notice the one in the picture does not show stitching down the middle. Slips below the nose which also annoying
This balaclava is warm enough but has one annoying feature and that is the stitching on the front on the inside sticks into your lip and nose. I guess you just get used to it. Upside it was very warm on a wet windy day up the Bucketts Way.
What can I say. After continually being told I have a large cranium, I received and tried on the Dririder Balaclava. Now I believe every one...Wish I had a smaller head.
