Power Wool™ Balaclava

Essential baselayer or standalone headwear differentiated by its streamlined anatomical fit and hinged closure for weather and sun protection

Made of Polartec® Power Wool™, which uniquely isolates plush merino wool on the inside, and a resilient high-stretch technical knit on the outside. This harnesses the natural thermoregulating powers of wool while dramatically improving its resilience.

Merino wool’s marvelous isothermic properties derive from the dramatic temperature variation the sheep endure in Australia and New Zealand. This enables headwear that has a warming effect when it’s cold, yet is also pleasantly cooling when it’s warm.
