Särmä balaclava, 1-hole, merino wool, black

Lightweight balaclava made of merino wool - excellent head cover when you need one. Works just as well as a helmet liner. Our own production made in Lithuania.

Usually balaclavas are either lightweight cotton (which is nasty when wet) or thick arcylic/wool (hot as hell). These take the best of both worlds. Even in really cold weather you can wear this under any additional protection - wool is still the best thing next to your skin.

Mulesing free 100% merino wool. These are moisture wicking, dry fast and are self-rinsing. They are also machine-washable, but washing is usually unnecessary - wool cleans itself. If you have to wash, it can be done in 40 degrees celsius. When not in use, air them out and give them a good shake after that. You only need to wash the clothes if you see stains or they start to smell really bad. This usually requires lots of continuous use without airing.
