Alpine Onset Merino 150 Balaclava

A technical base layer built for active pursuits in cold conditions, the Alpine Onset Merino 150 Balaclava delivers lightweight warmth and adaptable face coverage from alpine tours to winter trail runs. A non-mulesed merino wool blend with 5% elastane and a hinge construction lets you dial in coverage as conditions and intensity change.

Non-Mulesed Merino Wool Blend
53% Non-Mulesed Merino Wool provides natural temperature regulation, next-to-skin softness, and natural anti-odor performance for all-day comfort.
Recycled Polyester
42% Recycled Polyester delivers durable, lightweight performance that treads lighter on the environment.
Elastane Stretch
5% Elastane delivers four-way stretch that moves with your face and neck during high-output activity — no pinch or restriction.
Updated Hinge Construction
Smart hinge design allows variable face coverage — pull it down for full face protection or up to expose nose and mouth when working hard.
Ponytail Port
Inclusive design accommodates longer hair without bunching — pull a ponytail through the port for a comfortable fit.
Lightweight 150 gsm Knit
Lightweight knit construction layers easily under helmets and hoods without bulk or pressure points — packs down small for travel.
Naturally Anti-Odor
Merino wool naturally resists odor-causing bacteria — wear multiple days between washes on multi-day trips.
UPF 30 Sun Protection
Built-in UPF 30 rating shields skin from intense UV exposure on sunny winter days and alpine traverses.
Breathable
Merino blend vents excess heat and moisture during high-output activity — keeps you comfortable through exertion in the cold.
Quick-Drying
Synthetic blend dries fast — wash in the evening and wear again the next morning on multi-day trips.
Wicking
Synthetic and natural fibers pull sweat off your skin and let it evaporate — keeps you dry and comfortable through exertion in the cold.
