They do sell "coolmax" balas but they are expensive as hell. I'd rather put that money towards a full mask.

I wear one in the winter time. But after the winter is over I dont use anything to protect my face. Just keep my mouth shut. I have seen BBs shatter teeth, go up noses and ears and stuff.

Wear a mouth guard if you're worried about your teeth. Not the regular sports one, go to a place that sells boxing and martial arts stuff and get a combatives double mouthguard. You don't need the massively high end one, you aren't gonna stopping a freight train with it; just get a small lightweight one that'll be comfortable and that has a good breathing opening.
Otherwise a hit to the skin will most likely make you bleed, but it won't leave a mark much bigger than the actual BB.

I can't remember for sure but Underarmor was making a coolmax or similar version too. There was an asc member selling them (I just tried a search for him here but he does not show up) I remember them being $30+. Fairly sure you will find them at a local military surplus. lol I just found this now through google. Balaclava, Coolmax with Neoprene Face Mask. coolmax cool, neoprene hot in summer. Kind of contradicting. Amazon.com: Balaclava, Coolmax w/Neoprene Face Mask, Black: Kitchen & Dining Finally there is always ebay. This one has a huge eye opening though. Not really linking it. Could be the way it fits on her though. http://cgi.ebay.com/Oxford-CoolMax-B...sid=p1638.m122 Wearing a bala and getting face shot is still going to hurt like a biach though. I guessing you don't like the look of Shemagh with your kit? http://www.airsoftcanada.com/showthread.php?t=13814

I use ir only in winter and for CQB games.
It provides some protection. Better than nothing but much less than a neoprene mask. Our limit is 350fps

Root canal after my third airsoft game. Find something for your teeth, for sure. Dental plans are great, but they don't stop the pain of an RC. |

^lol. My 'no balaclava' was more like $600, but that's kind of redundant, isn't it?
Point made. |

http://www.rangerjoes.com/balaclava-...ic-p-3957.html BUT, they're gouging on international shipping. Any ideas on taking a balaclava and adding some kind of hard material in front of the mouth? Some kind of thin plastic insert? I'm not too worried about my face, but I am worried about my teeth.

 I was thinking more along the lines of cardboard under the bala or leather with holes in it.
