Great Product
Excellent product, glad I purchased it. It works well with an MX style helmet with goggles. Works great on a cold snowy night. Little pricey but it is well worth it.

peripherally challenged
this product works great for what it's intended for which is keeping your face warm. however, in a modular helmet like mine the duck bill gets smashed and serves no purpose. not a huge issue. the big issue for me was the interference with my peripheral vision. i can no longer glance over my shoulder to check for traffic. i have to practically turn around before i change lanes. i've only worn it once and am not looking forward to having to wear it again.

Not what I expected
I try to ride everyday that I have traction, so when Klim came out with the Arctic, I jumped on it. The problem I have with it is the port that funnels the air away from your visor is open to the elements. That being said, instead of funnelling the hot moist air from my nose and mouth out, it funnels the cold outside air into my face. Now I wear two balaclavas to compensate. If you have gear that supports this vent, it's a great design, otherwise save the money and buy the stealth.

Only 1 flaw; but it's a biggie.
I ride motorcycles all year round here in eastern PA..
So I was looking a balaclava that has full coverage.
ie. head, shoulders, chest, and back.
This balaclava has that; EXCEPT it has an opening for the nose and mouth.
And all that opening does is funnel the wind into your eyes.
Otherwise I would have given this Klim Arctic Balaclava 5 stars in every category.
For now a bandana tied over the opening appears to stop the funneling of the wind.
Perhaps when it gets colder and closer to winter; I'll sew a patch over the opening.
So far I've only used this balaclava in 40 degree weather.
I and except for that nose and mouth opening; it's kept me warm.
Even with the opening for the nose and mouth; it's still much better than all the cheaper balaclavas on the market.
