bandanas are useless unless they are fleece lined. balaclava's will actually keep your head warm.

Balaclava*

Bandanna's are totally useless. There is no warmth and they freeze up in 30 minutes? I always wear a balaclava unless it's hot out, then it's nothing.

Baclava for sure, bandana's don't keep your head or neck warm and are just all round way more annoying than just putting on a baclava.

Bandannas seem to keep me more warm than nothing just because im breathing into them.

But they freeze up way too easily so balaclavas for sure.

Usually dont use either.

everyone says balaclava but I see tons of kids wearing bandanas still, which sucks. balaclavas all the way, and I actually wear one.

It depends. I have both and i'll throw on a balaclava if its actually cold but if its really cold i'll throw a bandanna over top. I have the NS bandanna and it actually keeps me really warm

Balaclava's keep your face warmer than bandanas but I usually wear nothing.

Check out my friend Bryan's company. They make fleece lined bandanas that are pretty breathable and have slits to put your helmet straps through.

T-shirt sleeve!! Cut that shit off, put your head through, boom its a bandana that wont untie or get loose on you. I do plan to upgrade to a balaclava though.

the main problem i have with bandanas is that when i tuck them underneath my goggles, i get a feeling of suffocation.

i think a bandana might be more effective seeing as baclava is a greek pastry.
