Description

There is a reason that Outdoor Research chose to call this the Option Balaclava™. And the reason isn't that it's optional. Use it as a neck gaiter, hat or balaclava to keep warm where and when you need it....

Outdoor Research: Option Balaclava - 3 Reviews

Robert Cope - 2007-12-09
Perfect Item for Base Layer or Above Zero (F) Wind shield I'm outdoors with Minimal movement for periods of 4-5 hours at a time. This item Works Great, and does not add bulk. As a stand alone item it functions great for temps Zero or above with 5-10 MPH winds. Below that it is a Awesome base layer/wicking layer. With a simple scarf it immunizes you against wind and temps into the below zero range. Must have for outside workers!

Lightweight yet warm I bought this to keep my (very bald) head warm when winter cycling, and although thin it does the job admirably. It stops the wind perfectly and has become my most treasured outdoor apparel. I have a 57cm head and chose the smaller option which fits nicely. The neck could be a smidgin longer but I heartily recommend it.

Perfect weight and fit I was concerned this balaclava would not be warm enough since my previous one was made from windstopper but everything is perfect. The balacalava fits nicely is easy to pull over your mouth and blocks the wind.
