 Small, lightweight and good coverage February 25, 2008

It's a great little mask and a great value. You get a nice field of vision and the thermal lens really keep the fog to a minimum. To claims that it doesn't look as 'cool' as others, that's a matter of personal preference, i think it looks rather sharp because it's so compact.
It's not at all bulky or heavy, it fits snugly over my face (i have a big head and face - size 8 hat) and it's very comfortable to wear. Like any other mask, it will get a little itchy after sweating a lot, but that's just the way it is with all of them. Lots of holes offer great ventilation so don't worry about suffocating with the mask on while engaged in battle.
The camouflage pattern is classic and will fit with many forest and wooded area landscapes and match most similar hunting/old school military camouflage patterns (NOT the canadian disruptive camo though). It's a bit too dark for dry/sandy areas.
Works great for both paintball and airsoft (if you like full face protection... a barrage of .2g BBs flying at you at your face at 350 fps at short distances can do some damage, so if you ask me, i'd recommend full face).
I will agree to claims that it's a little hard to take apart at first, but once you get the hang of it you can take it apart, clean it thoroughly and have it back together in under 5 minutes.
Having said that, i will say this if you are looking to buy this for paintball: do not buy this if you wear really wide glasses (upwards of 140mm at the widest of the frame of your eyeglasses), the lens base isn't very wide. It's good for medium to small glasses (widest lens it'll fit is about 140mm wide, so go for that or less). To claims that it's no good for people that wear glasses, it's not entirely true, but do measure your frame to know for sure.
NEVER wear contact lenses underneath your mask in a paintball game, if paint sprays into your eyes through the holes, you're in for a nasty surprise.

This mask does not fit well over glasses and is not as cool looking as others (for example, the VForce Profiler). Lens is very hard to remove considering the ease with which you can remove the lens for other goggles. However these goggles cost about half as much as those other goggles. It provides good protection, but had a rather uncomfortable fit for me--very tight below my eyes. Also be careful that you don't get water in between the two lens layers when you are cleaning--you'll have a hard time getting it out. The inner layer on the lens isn't a full thickness polycarbonate layer, rather it is a very thin piece of plastic. However it did seem to prevent fog well.

Doesn't fog, good field of vision, great venting, camo pattern blends in well with a variety of environments and is comfortable and light
