Description:
A balaclava, also known as a balaclava helmet or ski mask, is a form of cloth headgear designed to expose only part of the face. Depending on style and how it is worn, only the eyes, mouth and nose, or just the front of the face are unprotected. Versions with a full face opening may be rolled into a hat to cover the crown of the head or folded down as a collar around the neck.
They are an instrument of intimidation as well as identity protection. As they conceal facial expressions of the wearer but they make positive identification difficult. They are fire resistant. The balaclava can be exposed to flames for 10-20 minutes without too much deterioration. After this amount of time there is a great risk of injury even if the balaclava seems fine.
