Built to block the sun, not the airflow.
The NoFry Sun Balaclava is built for long days outside when sun protection matters most, but versatility still counts. Made from the same featherweight, ultra breathable fabric as our NoFry Sun Hoodies, it shields your neck, face, and ears from harsh sun while staying light enough to wear comfortably in extreme heat conditions.
Because it breathes so well, it is not designed to trap heat like traditional balaclavas. That said, it works perfectly in cold or snowy environments when you want coverage without overheating, such as during high output activities, spring skiing, or sunny winter days in the mountains. It blocks sun, wind, dust, and snow glare without turning into a sweat trap.
Fast drying, odor resistant, and easy to pack, the NoFry Sun balaclava can easily be worn all day or stashed in a pocket. Pull it on when exposure adds up, pull it off when it does not. Simple coverage, zero bulk.
