"The Windproof Balaclava cuts wind chill without trapping heat against the face during hard efforts. Windstopper technology by GORE-TEX blocks wind while laser-cut breathing holes let hot air escape, so it works as hard on a fast descent as it does standing still in the cold. A seamless, streamlined construction sits flat under a helmet or goggles instead of bunching at the seams. The fabric holds 52% recycled content, cutting down on new material without cutting corners on performance. What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I pushed hard on a climb expecting to overheat with a balaclava on, and the breathing holes did their job. My goggles never fogged, even once I started sweating on the way up."""
