FAQ

A balaclava is a hood that covers the head, face and neck, often with openings for the eyes, nose and mouth. It is popular with men for several reasons :

  1. Weather protection: Ideal for outdoor activities such as motorcycling, skiing or hiking in cold weather.
  2. Functionality: Offers complete protection against wind, dust and extreme weather conditions.
  3. Versatility: Can be worn in a variety of contexts, from sport to military or professional use.
  4. Urban style: Balaclavas have become a trend in streetwear and menswear, often worn for bold, understated looks.

The choice of balaclava depends on the activity :

  1. For skiing : Opt for a merino wool or fleece model to offer warmth and breathability while wicking away moisture.
  2. For motorcycling: Choose a balaclava in windproof fabric or neoprene to protect against high-speed wind and ensure a snug fit under the helmet.
  3. For running : Choose a lightweight model in technical polyester or breathable fabric, offering good ventilation to prevent perspiration build-up.
  4. For urban use : A cotton or soft fabric model is more suitable for comfortable, discreet daily wear.

The choice of material is crucial to ensure effective protection in different climatic conditions :

  1. Harsh winter: Merino wool is ideal for its insulating and breathable properties.
  2. Windy, wet weather: Softshell or neoprene offer good protection against the elements.
  3. Temperate climate: Lightweight, breathable polyester is perfect for wicking moisture without overheating.
  4. Urban environments: Cotton offers comfort and softness for everyday use.


These factors will help you choose the balaclava best suited to your needs and activities.
