I like the concept, but it sucks as a beanie. It would be awesome as a dedicated balaclava, but the buttons get in the way. I want to remove the buttons so I can wear it under a helmet for snowboarding, but I can't find another to keep pristine for my collection.

Hmmm....This looks cool, but it's too hard to work. I can never get it to stay rolled up and when it is rolled up I look like a tool. It's good when it's really cold though and if I need just the beanie I can always break out the fine knit beanie.

Too big for my head, and I don't like how flimsy it feels when it is rolled up and attached by the buttons. It seems like air can still get inside, since the mask is only covered and held up by one button on that side.
