Just bought my new cool Real Tree Camo Balaclava for the winter. Thinsulate, toasty warm. Cool

I've got one and I don't live that far from you. 100% pure silk, black. It's part of the whole thermal underwear ensemble. If I wore only this get up, I'd look like a fat ninja walking through the woods.
It helps on those rare Florida days when the temperature dips into the 20's.

I just use a beenie, and a bandana. But after getting made fun of by my friends, I think I might go for one of those as well.

I have a black synthetic fleece balaclava..don't know the brand...it doesn't appear to have one, but I bought it at Campmor (I think....) a few years back. It's really a great piece of gear to have and I use it every winter.

In my area, there's a word for someone wearing a balaclava: "suspect".
If I get up north in the winter, though, I'll consider one.
