Well built, warm and hugs my temples nicely. It's relative lightweight but quite warm and cuts the wind almost completely. It's cut for a normal posture (which makes sense) but I use it for bike riding in the colder months and it tends to slip down over my eyes. I resolved the problem by putting a dart in the back of the neck to shorten it up, so no worries but as bad as I am with a sewing machine that was more of a project than I should undertake. ;(
