Anyone who has worn this to run in cold weather: does the material gets sucked into your mouth when you mouth-breathe? Or does it have "structure"?

I use it for road cycling and find this to be the best one yet, it maintains good tension over the face but is easy to pull under the chin if I need a little more freedom to breathe or overheat. This garment is pretty well shaped for the face, but not rigid or "structured" in any way. The thinness of the Lycra cuts the wind without overheating the face. I hope this helps, and, I have four, it's that good a fit for the huge melon on top of my neck!

I use it when playing airsoft so I do end up running quite a bit. I have not had any issues with the material going into my mouth at all.

It doesn't have structure but it fits fairly tight so it may not get sucked in to your mouth. If you plan on wearing this to keep warm on your run, plan to be disappointed. It is meant to keep you somewhat cooler on a hot day. I use it under my helmet while riding a motorcycle.

It is not breathable...... it is meant to keep in your body warmth yet lose the bulkiness.

i just had someone tell me on a recent trip (1-17-15) they went snorkeling in costa rica and it was the first time they used the masked and she said it did not leave a line and was super comfortable, and everybody had the same equipment/brand and were all very happy with this product...the water temp might have a bit to do with the lines too...if its colder the material might contract more and warmer stays softer..these waters were definitely warmer and again no lines, very comfortable mask and the fins did not leave or wear any blisters on the feet anywhere...hope this helps :)

I have one that looks like that also. It does not feel rough when I wear it around my neck. My buff saved my but at a marathon this weekend. I was able to wear it as a hood while running in cold temps and high winds on Virginia beach. I bought it more for function and less for looks and that is why I bout most of mine in solid colors.

Hi M.Gross,1) Is the sports sleeve waterproof? ie when you sweat, will the nano get wet? 2) You mentioned it's uncomfortable after extended wear, I figure you mean it's chaffs your skin? I do 1++ hour runs, so can you recommend any other type of sports sleeve for the nano that doesn't chaff?

It's pretty breathable but still may fog up your goggles. If I'm going pretty fast then it won't fog up but at stand still it does sometimes. You may want to go with one the has a completely open nose.

its 1 layer fairly thick polyester fleece yet on the very front were your mouth, going down your chin and neck its laminate mesh that I would think would be pretty water resistant. I'm in MA and I've warm this while shoveling and snow blowing also and it does get about as wet as any fleece would yet I've never gotten wet through it even after an hour outside and when I do ride in the cold with it I but the arms of my glasses over it rather then going inside over my ears and that helps keep it snug. I like the idea of eh way the top is kinda adjustable as you can get more of a custom fit for how you want to wear the top, you can actually push it right off your head if you wanted. its 1 layer fairly thick polyester fleece yet on the very front were your mouth, going down your chin and neck its laminate mesh that I would think would be pretty water resistant.

The mask will keep your head warm during chilly weather and good for morning jogs. Hope I helped.

My gf wore it while skiing this winter and worked perfect. She's also worn it running. It fits just like a backpack.n

I do not run as I have bad knees, but these have kept me warm in cold, windy conditions. You need to evaluate your personal winter warmth requirements. Running itself will generate body heat, and you probably don't want to get too warm. They are lightweight, but just a little bulky. They work well for my needs.

During the hot weather I ran in a sports bra with no shirt and still used this. The material it is made out of will still allow you to wear it while shirtless.

No problem so far although I have not used it in really cold weather, My only problem with the mask has been it does not accommodate glasses I had to poke small holes to put glasses through which lead to very minor air leak. Overall like the mask. Use it outside for severe allergies.

Eh... It depends. It would be great for hiking or being on foot in cold, windy weather. This question came at a good time. I just now walked through the door from a motorcycle ride. It's 12 degrees (F) here today. Around town, the product does very well. It's comfortable an my face stays warm. Above 40mph, the wind overcomes it and my face gets cold. I really love this thing, but if you're looking at sustained high/freezing winds, you may want something a bit more substantial.

I just used it (first day of summer) and felt it was perfect, but I get cold easily... Hope that helps.

According to the manufacturer it is made with waterproof materials. According to other reviews it is not made for super cold weather. Thank you!
