as long as it works right?
I got a balaclava with goretex, a bit on the expensive side, but it's windproof and keeps me warm below 45. above 45, I'm pretty comfortable. I know what you mean about wearing one tho. It takes a bit of getting used to. I wear glasses too which makes things a bit more challenging. It tends to fog up my glasses really fast until I get on the freeway. My shoei RF-1100 comes with a chin skirt too so between that and the balaclava, I can't feel a thing inside.
