Anybody used this stuff? looks dope, and i need a face mask cause CO just got damn cold. I was mostly wondering how heavy the Arctic one is / how lightweight the regular one is.

Thanks!

its not any thicker because then it wouldn't be very easy to breathe through but a good portion on the bottom is just a fleece square. you could fold it over to make it thicker

Yowie's are the best. I love mine but does anyone else have trouble breathing through it when it gets wet? It clings pretty tight to your face but when its wet it gets like sucked in my mouth when i breathe and I feel like I'm getting water boarded.

Is there anywhere with instructions on how to fold? I just got one and have no clue how to wear it.

you just slide it over your head til its around your neck, then pull it over your face. if you have an artic yowie and want to use the fleece, you just fold the fleece inside of the spandex material so i makes a tube and just wear it like i said before. sorry if that made no sense

Is it worth it to get a regular yowie or should I just go for the arctic yowie?

I have had both and I never used my Arctic when I had a regular one. The regular one is super comfortable and warm. There just isn't any need for the Arctic one in my opinion.
