Outdoor Research WINDSTOPPER Gorilla Balaclava 20667

This is the ultimate tool to keep your head, neck and face warm as you tackle any peak. The face mask attaches with Velcro. All this Velcro permits instant switching between complete coverage and total ventilation. For in-between conditions, the mask can be removed, the main Velcro can be left closed, and the balaclava's contoured chin can be rolled back under your chin. Handling exhalation is another of its fortes. The big gorilla nose provides unrestricted flow when breathing becomes strenuous, and the face mask incorporates an impermeable layer so it never freezes up. In addition, the mask's upper edge is contoured so that goggles seal it to the face and greatly reduce the amount of fog-causing breath that can get to the lens.

  • WINDSTOPPER® Soft Shell fabric; highly weather-resistant and breathable
  • Contoured, wrap around design
  • Removable face mask with mesh breathing port; hook/loop attached
  • Elastine trim
  • Avg. weight: 2.8 oz. (79 g.) in size large

Warm and Toasty in 50MPH Winds
I like to be pretty warm on the mountain, and this balaclava suits my needs well, while still allowing me to easily get drinks of water. The velcro works great. The only thing is it fits on my chin a little funny, too near my mouth for my liking, but it could just be the shape of my chin. =)

Best Balaclava On the Market
Keeps my face warm during the winter while driving my motorcycle, wearing only the balaclava and a bicycle helmet! Wouldn't recommend settling for less. The material is very durable and the mask is easy to put on and also comfortable. I think the ones complaining about the tight fit must have fat necks! It fits me perfectly!

Is this Handy? - Yes - No

Good balaclava
I bought this after reading the positive reviews and it did not disappoint. I have used the balaclava while commuting by bike in 20 degree weather. I have not used the face mask, because at times when I am breathing really hard my glasses fog up. Overall I would recommend this product to other people.

The Gorilla's a Balaclava Winner
I'd been looking for a long time for a balaclava that would be easy to put on and take off while fully clothed with my jacket already on, and the velcro fastners that the Gorilla provides is just the ticket. The ability to remove or adjust the nose/mouth cover makes it all that much more perfect. When properly fastened, it really protects the head and provides a great deal of warmth against the strongest winds that can possibly come up on the highest of mountains. This balacalava is, in my judgement, a winner!

Great shopping experience, quality merch and fast delivery.
It was too much gorilla for me so I gave it to my 13-year-old grandson who thought it was the bomb (he didn't say that but I'm sure he would have if he were 67-years-old). Thanks.

Best Balaclava ever made! Velcro mask makes the difference!
I looked for years for a Ski Mask with velco mouth/nose covering and finally Outdoor Research has made one. This is the best "frost free" mask that I have ever seen, a wonderful product!

Nice Hat
Outdoor Research did a nice job designing this Balaclava. It keeps you really warm when the wind and snow are blowing.

Good quality overall. Works great too.
It's not the most comfortable balaclava, but it's highly functional and practical. The main flap fits a bit snug. The face/nose shield is completely removable for times when the wind isn't biting. It's warm and the windstopper material does just that. Works great with goggles: the nose vent allows warm breath to escape and not fog up your lens. Definitely worth trying out.

Is this Handy? - Yes - No

Great wind stoppage, Poor fit
Those that complain about the awkward fit with this product are right. Once I got used to it after a couple of tries though, I felt very satisfied overall. You just have to strap it nice & snug, yet comfortable.

Finally, I got what I exactly wanted it.
It is the exact item that I want it. It works great with any kinds of weather condition.

Weird design
Well it does what it's supposed to but I have to admit the design is flawed. The front baffle is velcroed to the headmask which doesn't seal perfectly no matter how hard I tried. If the nose and mouth piece were one piece with the head piece I think I would have given it a 5.

Is this Handy? - Yes - No

Great product if you can get it on correctly
Overall this looks like a great product. Perhaps it is just me but it is a very difficult fit. The flap cover that attaches via a Velcro strip sits crooked across my chin. I tried to get it straight however no success.Instead of wrestling with this any further I will be returning it. Other than a very complicated fit/Velcro attachment system , the materials look to be of high quality.

Function not comfort
The balaclavadoes does what it is intended to do. To block wind thus keeping your face warm. It is not very comfortable. I do not like how the side velcro straps hang out a little on one side. It also feels stiff around the chin area also. If you are looking for a windstopper for your face that you can adjust from full face to partial then this is it. Just do not expect it to be comfortable.
