Do you actually need a face mask or balaclava for skiing
Hi everyone, I’m planning my first ski trip this winter and I’m a bit unsure about face masks or balaclavas.
Since I’m still figuring out what gear I actually need, I started looking into options and got a bit overwhelmed.
I’ve been checking several affordable options on typical online marketplaces like Amazon, Etsy and even Alibaba, and the prices and styles vary a lot.
Some look very lightweight while others seem quite heavy duty and I can’t really tell what is actually necessary versus just nice to have.
So I wanted to ask do you actually need a balaclava or face mask for skiing or is it only useful in extreme cold or windy conditions?
Would really appreciate advice from people who have tried different setups.
