4.0 out of 5 stars Good mask, but some fogging issues, February 8, 2008

I recently purchased this JT mask for an airsoft event. When the package arrived, I noticed that it was made of a plastic that scratched and flexed quite easily. You do not want to hit anything hard over your head.

On the field, it fogged up within the first hour of intense play. It was so bad, that I had to sit in a defensive position inside a bunker for the rest of the game. After the first game, however, the goggles did not fog up for the rest of the day; although, there was noticable condensation build-up on the nose and mouth guard.

Using this mask inhibits the use of rifle sights. Using a G36K, I was unable to look through the export sight without straining my neck and pressing hard on the mask.

Overall, a good mask, only some fogging in the early stages of game. I recommend using a defogger solution that is approved for JT lenses.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's ok, light comfy but can fog without thermal lens, March 29, 2007

This is probably one of the best masks around when it comes to protection, it's low on the front and covers the whole top, sides and most of the back of your head. No more backwards hats slipping or buying headbands to add to your gear. It's comfy but can get a little warm on the inside, hence the 3 star rating. It's very light for it's size and coverage. Also, the lens like to fog unless you get a set of thermal lens like mine now has, got a killer deal in them and love this mask. Excellent mask for someone who's starting or a whimp and can't take a hit in the head. It's also stylish and smooth. Lens can be hard to change if you're unexperienced in the process. Don't count on anymore head bounces, it's sure to break on top of your head, so u'll wanna keep your head down. Kinda hard to judge how high you head is because of the space. Chin strap feels a little irritating but holds it in place well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Mask, February 22, 2005

I'm giving this mask two thumbs up. It's great for beginers, but you can do better if your experienced at paintball. The head shield works great but it does pinch your hair, so, unless your bald, I suggest puting a piece of cloth in the top of it.
4 and a half out of 5 stars!
