Ski Mask

It is a funny cool product, quality made, the beard is attached to a separate layer of fabric - so the hairs do not touch your face and do not annoy. I liked the product and look forward to try it on the slope. Though I must admit it looks much more big (and more furry) on the picture on amazon that it is in reality - I guess it was put on a kid as it looks like a Yeti on the picture - on me it looks like a regular long beard could covering lips, chin and neck (and not as long as almost to belly button on the picture). ========== Update after a couple of seasons' use. 1) It is relvatively hot to ski, so the only time I could use it when it was snowing with wind - great use in cold conditions and very warm, though; 2) It straps behind your head on top, so if you are using helmet, it could be a bit inconvenient to wear - you would have to either pull the strap lower than helmet, or adjust helmet strap; 3) It covers nose, so if you are using goggles it could put some additional pressure on your nose - nothing major, though, but noticeable; 4) In goggles, your breath through the beard is likely to cause fogging - could be avoided by trimming top hairs with scissors; Overall - good warm product for bad weather conditions, indispensible in snow and wind and looks super fun!

I was shopping for a replacement for my neoprene Gator brand mask when I stumbled over this slice of awesome. It's not for everybody, but if you look at inclement weather as a game and enjoy amusing yourself and others in the process, you simply have to have one of these. I'm not sure any article of clothing I've purchased has made me chuckle quite this much. The quality is very good and it keeps you very warm. This morning's -2F wind chill... no problem at all. The mask quality itself is better and this design is far more comfortable to wear than the all neoprene Gator it replaced for me. One thing I'll mention is that the beard doesn't seem quite as large as what's in the current product picture. The length is about 11" and it's about 9" wide on the one I received. This is good news as the one pictured is a bit... too much beard. The looks you get walking to a white collar job in a downtown metropolitan city with this thing ... is worth the price of admission. Enjoy!

Up front - I did not purchase this for skiing, I purchased it to complete a running costume. The Santa beard was sold out, so I went with this one, for more of a grizzled santa look. During use it can help to breathe in the mouth and out the nose, to avoid moisture buildup in the mouth area - this can also help to avoid breathing in the beard fibers into your nose. I also had to snip the nose hole a bit bigger for my large nose to properly fit the mask. Something to keep in mind, is that it completely covers your nose - it's hard to see in the pictures, and probably doesn't matter with a pair of ski goggles, but with a pair of sunglasses it looks "less real". It will definitely keep your face warm in cold weather, and if you're running in it, will make your face sweat. Results from spectators were mostly positive - yielding "yeti", "chewbacca", "santa", "i'm terrified of that", and plenty of laughing.

Let's be honest. We bought this mostly for the novelty. But I honestly didn't expect this mask to perform as well as it did. I bought this for the winter months riding side by sides. In 35 degree weather, trail riding from 5-15mph the mask works amazingly. What I didn't expect was the wind resistance and the warmth of the mask at 50mph the same day. Keep in mind I'm in a UTV. I did have the beard come up level with my chin a few times going so fast but never covered my eyes. Super happy with the mask I definitely recommend and would buy again IMPORTANT NOTICE: People complain about the strap. Well I didn't know before buying but the mask straps around the top/back of your head and keeps your ears warm. I also had a beanie on and had to take them both of for a few minutes at a time to cool down. If you were to use this with a helmet im sure the straps would slide but no problem with a beanie

My husband put the beardski on his Christmas list. I got it for him as a gag gift (though I winced a little bit at the $35 price tag.) When it arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was excellent quality, "snowsports-worthy"-- think of a high quality neoprene mask with faux fur...er...beard attached to it. He tried it this weekend on the ski slopes in 8-degree weather and was happy as could be. His face was warm, no fear of frostbite. Plus, as everyone else has said here, it was a hit with friends AND strangers! Highly recommend it for the entertainment value alone! Hoping it will last this whole ski season...and then some. Will update this report later in the spring to see how it holds up to repeated use and washings (Beardski web site says it's washable - we'll probably try it on handwash cycle in a mesh bag to make sure it doesn't "shed").

It's a nice novelty item, it does keep your face warm, but don't expect too much above that. The beard itself is just a strip of polyester with a polyester beard woven on the front. The hair does not comb easily, it clumps when wet, and is almost impossible to tame. The mustache came smooshed upward, and after a little work I got it to looking like a mustache again but it still returns to its upward state after a while. I find myself constantly pushing rouge strands down that defy gravity. The velcro for fastening feels cheap and papery, but I have not had a problem with it yet. Don't get me wrong, it will get laughs and complements, but it wont win any authenticity awards. The price is 100% fair for what I got.

Great, great and again great! Used it on Sugarloaf and the skiing experience was different! I just loved this! With helmet and goggles, your face just disappears. I had to start talking to someone I knew because I was looking at them from 3feet away and she couldn't recognize who I was! I did scare a little kid which was giggling and fooling around but once he noticed me he froze. Walked back to his dad and held his leg for dear life as I was approaching! All my friends loved it! It does the job of keeping you warm too. Mindful of all people that already have a beard - like I do - that this does fit fine, but I suspect that it would be even better for shaved faces. I didn't have a problem though. Go for it - it is a great product!! ...yeah, the price sucks, I'd wanted it cheaper too, but you get what you pay for.

AWESOME! I bought it for the novelty for a multi-family ski trip, but now I wear it every time I go skiing. Tons of comments in line by people arguing each other whether it is a real beard or fake. I love it! Even the lift operators stop to check it out. So what's the downside? They are minor but there are some. 1. Hand wash only 2. If it is really windy it can blow to the side a little. Never gets you cold, but flicks in your peripheral vision 3. Ices over from your breathing. I actually think this is the best look for the beard, but my wife thought it looked like I had ice buggers coming out of my nose LOL. These are very minor negatives, and notice I give it 5-Stars! It works excellently as a face/neck warmer and it looks cool too.
