Balaclava  - pronounced băl″ə-klä′və. The term might originate from Balaclava, Crimea, but we are not certain.  It would make sense as it can be rather cold there come winter. With a Balaclava, you can extend your time outdoors. Simply slip it on and you will feel warmer instantly. We curated the perfect silky, soft material blend to prevent irritated skin. The versatile design allows for two wearing styles: the classic (and warmer) fit, pulled up to your goggles (colder days), as well as a fit for warmer days, front pulled down to your chin. Our specialized balaclava is slightly loose fitting to prevent a claustrophobic feeling, yet still snug and warm. Have fun with many design options to optimize your outfit!
