Fire Resistant Balaclava

Purchased this to function as a liner under a synthetic balaclava. My skin reacts to tech gear, even low percentage content of polyester … but wearing a cotton inner garment allows me to wear gear that otherwise would not work for me.It would probably not work as a cold weather balaclava (<10F), but worn as a liner under a cold weather balaclava … it works exceptionally well. The design allows me to pull the part that would normally cover my nose and mouth down, so that I'm not trying to breath through two layers of material. Other designs would have been more difficult to do this.I use it under a synthetic balaclava that is designed to not fog ski goggles. On extremely cold and windy days, I'll wear the ski goggles when I run. Most balaclavas will cause your goggles to fog over, so I wear one that is designed to direct my breath away from the goggles … unfortunately, I can't find any made of Moreno wool (my preferred fabric) and fleece (polyester) is something my skin really hates. The solution? Wear a cotton balaclava liner … and this one works exceedingly well for that purpose.I don't need its fire retardant capabilities, but the design and construction are excellent, a quality product.
