Le Bent Featherweight Balaclava

Backcountry Gearhead Recommendation "I wear the Featherweight Balaclava every time I’m out in the cold—it’s lightweight but warm, and the ninja hinge lets me pull it down without removing my helmet. It doesn’t itch, and it dries quickly if I start sweating. Easily my favorite for touring and resort days." From bluebird powder laps to stormy ascents, the Le Bent Featherweight Balaclava delivers all-conditions coverage in a featherlight, breathable package. Made with Le Bent’s 200gm Signature Blend of merino wool and rayon from bamboo, this versatile layer manages moisture, regulates temperature, and feels luxuriously soft against the skin.Face-mapped panels create a contoured fit that stays put under a helmet, while the ninja-style eye hinge gives you the flexibility to wear it up, down, or as a neck gaiter. With UPF 50+ sun protection and natural odor resistance, this is the one balaclava you’ll pack every time you head into the mountains.
