Mountain Hardwear Alpine Balaclava

The Alpine Balaclava from Mountain Hardwear keeps you covered with Polartec Recycled Power Stretch fleece and keeps the weather out of your vision with a perfectly sized brim.

Constructed using Polartec Power Stretch fabric, the Alpine Balaclava from Mountain Hardwear provides you with an abundance of warmth as you take on the outdoors. The Polartec fabric keeps you protected thanks to a fleece lining which works tirelessly to retain warmth, ensuring your face is not exposed to the harsh weather conditions. The fleece has a soft, next-to-skin feel for additional comfort. Additionally, the Polartec fabric is also extremely breathable, encouraging cool air to circulate to create a drier, healthier environment for your skin to thrive. Furthermore, moisture-wicking properties actively and efficiently eradicate the build-up of excess sweat and moisture, leaving your skin feeling dry and comfortable as you strive for the best results and performance.

While the primary function of the garment is a balaclava, it also doubles up as a neck gaiter. Simply adjust the fit and shape of the balaclava to turn it into a fully functioning neck gaiter if you just want to focus on a specific area, rather than having it cover your whole face. This feature is ideal for cool but not too cold days, where the weather is less harsh than in the height of winter. The balaclava is also able to offer a snug fit under a hood or a helmet, adding impressive versatility to the garment. Lastly, a pliable brim protects your eyes from the sun, improving your field of vision and lessening the risk of distraction or discomfort.
