Thermal Synthetic Silk Black Balaclava Under Helmet Protection

Product Information

Our winter balaclava has a unique and awesome design, with a mesh fabric covering the face area, and a soft spandex cloth under the mesh that touches the nose and mouth for added comfort. Both can also be particularly beneficial for riders who are going thin on top or who are already bald, as some may not like the feeling of the helmet against their skin or their head gets cold. Then again, if you’re already using a winter bike helmet that’s designed to keep your ears warm but it’s not enough for you, then you can get one of these to wear under the helmet. The thin balaclava won’t be uncomfortable, and combined with the helmet, it can provide the level of warmth you’re looking for. Product Features: And while you can and probably should wear balaclavas for many purposes like skiing, snowboarding, hiking, and more, their features and benefits make them more essential as motorcycling equipment. For instance, sweat absorption, helmet padding, and their ability for both warming and cooling allow riders to stay comfortable in different temperature conditions.

Because collected moisture is the bane of a functional balaclava, the best ones include a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating to help shed the moisture and prevent it from soaking into the fabric itself.

While this works for the body, there is no reason it won’t work for the head too and that is why a balaclava can be a useful addition for many riders.A well-fitting ski mask is a practical addition to your ski clothing. It can fit under your ski helmet and it's compatible with most ski goggles. This, along with a helmet-compatible hood will optimally protect you. Almost all models have a stretch element in the fabric, or are knit in such a way that they’ll hug your head and face nicely. This prevents the ski mask or balaclava from appearing bulky.

Wash the goggles in soapy water and air dry them before you put them on. The presence of soap molecules can inhibit the build-up of fog. This is a windproof balaclava, so it will keep ears warm properly. However, there are tiny perforations on the position of the mouth so that you can breathe easily. This mask will keep your face warm without restricting the airflow in your mouth and nose. Some riders will tell you that a decent balaclava will also help reduce wind noise by sealing up gaps and layering material over the ears.
