    I wear a ninjaclava, does me well on my morning commute in the freaking frost at open road speeds. I find it seals my helmet nicely, keeps my face warm, and reduces wind noise significantly. It works well with my jacket collar - my only complaint would be that I'd prefer it to be slightly longer in the back of the neck, but otherwise, well worth it imo.

    Use an Arab shemagh that I was issued in Iraq. Made of cotton, and does the job lovely.

    This guy seems to have the right idea when it comes to balaclavas... although he might be in the wrong neighborhood... NWS

    I've never really enjoyed getting smeg anywhere near my face, to be honest.

    I likewise bought a "ninjaclava" as it was on sale a couple of weeks ago at the adventure store in newmarket (can't recall the name, right next to Mooks).
    Keeps my neck and face warm so no complaints there.

    I did notice some fogging at night when sitting at the lights even with a pro-grip antifog visor screen but that dissipates as soon as I am going over 20km.

    Overall it's a bargain for $20.

    Can the Ninjaclava be found on the net?

    I'm using a Warmriders neckwarmer (check trade me) which is good but my head is freezing...

    Polyprop balaclava from smiths city.Nice and warm covers the neck between the jacket great value for money at $12.00. Slight fogging with sunnies and visor closed but clears once I am moving.

    Katmandu $15. Does the job. I don't like the nose or mouth covered but it keeps the head, chin and neck warm.
    I'm only wearing black until they develop something darker

    Could it be Kathmandu?

    Can somebody help me out here?

    I saw a Rev It neck/face tube at Moto Mail at College hill for $30 and it looked pretty good with this breathable material.
