Review by Alexander on 29 Jan 2024 review stating Solid
I love the airholes. So much better than regular balaclavas. The hole helps reduce sunglasses fog, condensation in the mask and gets you more uses between washes. The merino is not ichy/soft and I’d way rather have these natural fibres heating up in on my face.

little tighter. I don’t think the top part is necessary unless you are really sweaty.
If you you are first time buyer I’d start with only one because they don’t fit everyone’s face perfectly. I like the fabric right up to my eyes as I walk daily in winters down to -40. But some people think the fabric goes up too high.
So yeah the tube airholes fit slightly better I think, but if this one is on sale the fit is close enough. Read LessRead less about I love the airholes. So much better

Airhole Balaclava Hinge Merino
Review by Andre L. on 14 Jul 2023 review stating Airhole Balaclava Hinge Merino
The merino balaclava would have been great. However, I tried it on at home but the nose and piece weren’t aligning. I asked my friend to try it as well but the nose stitching would always stay unaligned with the mouth piece. Had to return the product.

Airhole balaclava hinge merino L/XL
Review by Andre L. on 14 Jul 2023 review stating Airhole balaclava hinge merino L/XL
I tried it on at home but the nose and piece weren’t aligning. The balaclava feels a bit small despite getting the L/XL size. Quality of the material feels good and warm though.

Solid Purchase
Review by Karen G. on 2 Mar 2025 review stating Solid Purchase
I liked the fact that the balaclava had a longer neck, so that your neck is fully covered. However, it did get more wet than my regular tube. Maybe I breathe super weird when skiing?? I also purchased for my husband, and he loved it.

Very warm and my goggles don't fog!
Review by Eric T. on 6 Feb 2025 review stating Very warm and my goggles don't fog!
Great balaclava. Material is very soft and warm. The hole is functional and helps keep my goggles from fogging up when snowboarding.

Got this for staying warm from the wind during boarding. Works well and able to breathe well without having a soggy mouth.

Nice warm, but doesn't block wind.
Review by Ivan Z. on 21 Feb 2023 review stating Nice warm, but doesn't block wind.
Super thin and warm, and not overly scratchy. Good for wearing under helmet, but wind passes through very easily, so a thicker fleece would be a better option depending on wind/temperature.

Comes with a bonus filter
Review by Nicolas N. on 18 Feb 2023 review stating Comes with a bonus filter
Great baclava, soft and warm. I was surprised to see that it came with a little circular “filter” or mesh-like material to plug the mouth hole.

I bought this because I already know I love them. I have two and it's my favourite balaclava!

The bedrock of the Airhole range
Our Balaclava Hinge allows fabrics with less stretch to function as full head and face protection whilst allowing you to pull the face portion under the chin to free your face and eliminating the need for a beanie. Merino wool is a highly technical, natural fibre that has superior heat management, moisture wicking and odor preventing properties compared to man made fibres. Merino is incredibly lightweight which allows us to make our masks smaller and more compact without sacrificing performance in all conditions. This season we’ve added 5% Spandex to increase durability, comfort, and help maintain the shape. Protect yourself naturally with our renewable and biodegradable fabric. Our Balaclava Hinge Merino masks feature our unique embroidered Airhole which is soft and comfortable against your face. The Airhole allows breath to escape freely, avoiding the buildup of condensation to keep you warm, dry and your goggles fog free. A dry mask ensures all day comfort and no bad odours.
