I've owned a dozen balaclavas over the years and the spiritus one blows the dead bird out of the water much comfier and a better fit though i seem to have gotten a prototype or something as mine has L/XL on the inside despite not having a size on the website fits great though.

THIS IS A NON-RETURNABLE PRODUCT
The Spiritus Mid-Weight Balaclava is engineered specifically for those who demand thermal regulation without sacrificing situational awareness.
Built to bridge the gap between freezing environments and high-exertion operations, this balaclava delivers low-profile, high-performance protection that integrates seamlessly with your existing kit.
Key Features
Inherently Flame Resistant: Protection is engineered directly into the fibers at the yarn level. Unlike treated fabrics, the flame-resistant properties will never wash out or wear away, ensuring consistent life-long thermal protection.
Superior Moisture Management: The technical Swiss pique structure creates a multi-dimensional surface area. This geometry pulls sweat away from the skin and disperses it across the outer layer for rapid evaporation, keeping the operator dry under heavy exertion or beneath a helmet.
Optimal Strength-to-Weight Ratio: At 5.5 oz/sq yd, the fabric strikes a perfect balance between durability and breathability. It provides enough loft to manage heat while remaining thin enough to integrate seamlessly with headborne communication systems and ballistic helmets.
Next-to-Skin Comfort: The blend of Modacrylic and FR Rayon offers a soft, non-irritating hand feel, reducing hot spots and chafing during extended missions in austere conditions.
