Balaclava Mammut Balaclava black

Uncompromising protection for extreme conditions

When the temperature drops well below freezing and an icy wind picks up on the ridge, a standard beanie or neck warmer is no longer enough. The Mammut Balaclava acts as a reliable shield, insulating your entire head, neck, and face. It is an indispensable piece of gear for alpine hiking, ice climbing, ski touring, or freeriding, where you need 100% protection against frostbite.

Technical material for maximum comfort

The core of the balaclava is made of highly elastic Polartec® Power Grid™ fleece. This functional material excels not only in its softness and stretchiness, but primarily in its excellent breathability and effective moisture wicking from the skin. Thanks to its low profile and flat seams, the balaclava perfectly follows the anatomy of your head. It creates no pressure points anywhere, even when you wear it under a climbing or ski helmet.

Practical details you will appreciate

• highly elastic and breathable Polartec® Power Grid™ material
• flexible face opening that can be easily pulled down under your chin
• flat seams eliminating unpleasant friction and pressure points
• ergonomic design for a perfect fit under a helmet
• production using recycled polyester
• extremely packable design that fits into any pocket

Our tip

Thanks to the flexible face opening, you can easily pull the balaclava down under your chin during a demanding ascent to free your nose and mouth for better breathing, without having to take it off completely.
