The material composition listed on militaria.pl is completely different from the one on the tag. In reality, cotton predominates here rather than synthetic fabric, as can be seen in the attached photo. The balaclava is not loose, but it fits the head well — you just need to pull it into place properly. It is quite stretchy, so you can easily lower the face covering below the nose or down to the chin. I can feel that I’m wearing it the whole time, but that doesn’t bother me. The only downside is that it sometimes stubbornly rides up under my mouth. Glasses stay on it well, as long as they are worn over the balaclava rather than under it. The situation gets worse after putting up a hood, because then they may slip down. To keep the glasses from fogging up, you need to pull the balaclava down below the nose. When walking outside on the street in temperatures around freezing, it protects quite well against the cold. It is a very good alternative to uncomfortable, thick scarves. Another plus is its great appearance. I consider the purchase a success — thanks to it, I’ll get through the winter just fine.
