Klim Covert Balaclava - High Risk Red

I needed a new balaclava to replace my old Oxford one and thought I would have a look at what the upper end of the market has to offer. Well I have to say as much as I normally really Klim gear, I'm not really impressed with this balaclava. It is good quality, but as it's more than three times the price of an equivalent Oxford item, I was hoping for a bit more tbh. Dont even know what I was expecting a $‌66.00 balaclava to do but certainly more than a $‌20.00 one. One really annoying point for me personally is, while the majority of it is made of a thin fleece type fabric, there is a strip of silk type material running down the rear of it which leaves about an inch square of uninsulated neck which when I rode to work recently in 3 degree temps I really noticed. Other than that it's decent enough, just doesn't feel to me any more premium than the cheaper offerings.
