Outdoor Research Alpine Fleece Balaclava

Low-Vis Warmth, High-Output Ready

When cold-weather ops demand full-face coverage without the bulk, the Alpine Fleece Balaclava delivers. Built from ultra-soft, wind-resistant fleece with just enough stretch, it’s mission-ready for winter patrols, mountain training, or alpine assault.

Breathable and quick-drying, it wicks moisture like a champ while keeping you warm on long slogs through frigid terrain. Flatlock seams eliminate pressure points under helmets, and the hinged construction adapts to your needs—up, down, or somewhere in between. Toss in silicone goggle grips and you’ve got a locked-in kit for snowbound performance.

Why We Love It

This isn’t your average ski mask. It’s soft, tactical, and smartly built. You get full-face coverage without suffocation, and the hinged design means it adjusts on the fly. Whether you're stacking laps, pulling duty on a windy ridgeline, or just trying to stay off frostbite’s radar—this balaclava’s your winter wingman.
