What Makes This Balaclava Tick?

• Midweight 260gm Fabric: Provides increased insulation compared to Le Bent’s 200gm lightweight fabric, making it well suited to colder mountain conditions.

• Signature Merino Blend: Combines merino wool and rayon from bamboo for exceptional softness, natural temperature regulation, moisture management and odour resistance.

• Mesh Breathing Panel: Strategically positioned mesh around the mouth and nose improves airflow, allowing warm air and moisture to escape more easily.

• 4-Way Stretch: Flexible construction contours comfortably around the head and face while maintaining freedom of movement.

• Face-Mapped Construction: Anatomically shaped panels provide a secure, comfortable fit beneath your helmet.

• Thermoregulation: Merino wool helps retain warmth in cold conditions while allowing excess body heat to escape during activity.

• Moisture Management: Moisture-wicking fibres help draw perspiration away from the skin to maintain comfort throughout the day.

• Itch-Free Comfort: Soft bamboo rayon fibres provide a smooth, comfortable feel against sensitive facial skin.

• UPF 50+ Sun Protection: Provides protection against harmful UV rays in exposed alpine environments.
