Review: Solid Balaclava - The thickness of this balaclava was great! Had a couples tours up in northern Norway and it kept me warm and free from any windburn. I have a relatively small head and it still fit well. Glad I purchased it.
Review: Minus33 Merino Wool Balaclava - I’ve been really happy with this balaclava from Minus33. One of the biggest improvements over my old one is that they stopped using the laced embroidered logo on the neck area. On my previous balaclava, that logo would constantly rub and irritate my neck, which drove me crazy on longer wear. This new version is smooth and comfortable all the way around. The fit is great, even for my big head, it’s snug without feeling tight, and it doesn’t distort or pull awkwardly when I move. It layers easily under a helmet or hood, too. I also really like how compact it is. When I’m not wearing it, I can just roll it up and stash it in my coat pocket and forget it’s there until I need it. Warm, comfortable, and easy to carry, I’m very satisfied and would definitely recommend it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works at negative 35 degrees with even colder wind chill!
*by S***A on March 5, 2026*

This balaclava worked wonderfully in Yellowknife Canada! The temperature ranged from - 35 to - 17 degrees and when I put it on, my face was stayed warm. It was large enough to pull over my head, even with a ponytail. It was not tight and I felt comfortable with it on. I was also able to take it off quickly for pictures. It is a keeper!
