Next generation technical knit insulation. This balaclava features a high-tech knit construction that provides exceptional breathability and comfort.

The outdoor industry is full of superficial innovations that emphasize novelty, but every once in a while, a new technology emerges that has the potential to fundamentally change things. The Lykan series is one such example. It takes comfort and performance to the next level, offering a whole new experience. The ultra-lightweight, stretchy fabric moves with you, making it feel like a part of your body.

The Lykan Balaclava is knitted with a unique textured yarn for an exceptionally soft, lightweight, and stretchy brushed fabric. It also features three seamlessly knitted zones for enhanced comfort and performance: open mesh around the face for condensation protection, thicker ribbing around the neck for added comfort, and a standard medium-density fabric around the head. The lightweight, breathable, and soft fabric is ideal for active insulation. Its balance of breathability, lightness, and comfort far surpasses traditional insulation. The brushed, moisture-wicking, and airy construction provides excellent insulation when layered with a helmet or hood, and ventilation allows for quick release of excess heat and moisture.

This one-piece knitting process eliminates the need for cutting fabric, resulting in near-zero waste, and the use of recycled and recyclable polyester yarns ensures a fully circular lifecycle – making it possible to combine high performance with sustainability.

The Lykan Balaclava is perfect for wearing under a helmet during cold-weather activities like skiing, ice skating, winter bike commuting, etc. The open, stretchy, seamless construction provides superior comfort and keeps you warm without overheating.

The Lykan Balaclava is a next-generation insulated gear that pushes comfort, performance and sustainability to new levels. Once you try it, you'll never want to go back to traditional insulation.

This product is made with recycled materials with an eye to the future. When it reaches the end of its life after many years of use, it can be reused as raw material, reducing the use of new resources, environmental impact and waste.
