The Balaclava Hinge Drytech is a facemask combined with a balaclava. The front facemask panel hinges down to make eating / drinking easier without having to remove the Balaclava. Made with Merino Wool it is light, soft and has natural antiodour and moisture wicking properties. Designed to keep you warm and dry while protecting you from the sun.

Why do you need a hole in a face mask in front of your mouth?

As you exhale you also breathe out moisture. This gets trapped in the mask and you end up with a wet face all day..... nice. If it gets cold that moisture freezes making you colder. The Airhole is designed to allow breath to escape freely, avoiding the build up of condensation to keep you dry, warm and goggles fog free. Stay out there longer.

All Airhole masks have a minimum UPF of 50 which means they block 98% of harmful UV rays. This helps prevent premature aging and the risk of damage to the wearers skin. Unlike many sunblock products, Airhole Facemasks block both UVA and UVB radiation.
