I personally do not like the polyester fabric for a balaclava. I have an Outdoor Technology Yowie and I don't use it anymore. I admit the patterns and style is really cool on them but I much prefer Merino Wool for many reasons. I have one made by Smart Wool but I also recommend checking out Minus 33 they have some very heavy weight fabrics which is what I really want since I only use them on super cold days.
that's why I like merino wool. Polyester fabrics get very smelly and funky very quickly, merino wool is naturally anti microbial, and very warm. Plus natural fibers just feel a lot better on the body.
