Default Oxford Toasty

Hi folks,

Has anyone any experience of these face masks?
http://www.oxford-shop.co.uk/item3238.htm

I recently bought a Roof Boxer V & to say it steams up a bit would be the understatement of the year. I had a 2 mile, 5 minute journey last weekend & by the time I stopped, the insde of the visor was p1ssed through.

Any opinion of the Oxford Toasty would be gratefully received.
Thanks, Alan

Mister C, what brand/model is that?

I currently have a balaclava similar to that, but find the gap around the eyes isn't big enough. Consequently, it sometimes slips about and takes out a small bit of my peripheral vision. Can you confirm this one doesn't suffer from that? Also, do you find wind rushes up the inside when it's worn outside your jacket (if I tuck mine into the jacket's collar, it tends to choke me when I do blindspot checks).

It's an Oxford Chill Out & the gap is quite large. I wear glasses, so cant have the balaclava over my nose (when I breath it steams my specs up) so I dont have any vision issues.
I always wear it inside my jacket, so cant help you on the last issue, but I find it very comfortable. I was quite surprised how good it was at keeping the cold out tbh because it is fairly thin material, but it's spot on.
