Moisture-wicking insulation and coverage for hoods and helmets of most shapes and sizes.
Great for alpine climbing but also superb for skiing and snowboarding, this Power Stretch Balaclava provides excellent face and neck coverage in cold conditions. It features four-way stretch Polartec fleece with a brushed, bi-component construction that does double duty both as a source of insulation and a moisture-transfer base layer. The construction is intentionally snug to comfortably fit beneath all but the tightest helmet configurations.
Purchase USD$45 or more and get free shipping. The Mountain Hardwear Power Stretch Balaclava is available through Altrec.com.

Power Stretch Balaclava
I normally wear this during work on midnights. Fits great and keeps my head warm when I am outside for extended periods of time. Fits snug enough. Blocks some wind but not all, should be expected. Will probably buy another to keep in my ski bag.

Great product
Wear mine for cold weather cycling under my helmet. It is thin and works great.

Highly Recommended Balaclava
This balaclava is very comfortable to wear and put on. It stretches well and feels good on the skin. In very cold conditions I wear it under a hat.

good fit
I have been searching for a lightweight but good fit balaclava and this balaclava is what I was looking for. I will use it mainly for clearing snow in the winter when it's really cold. It's not winter yet so I haven't use it yet so I can't attest for durabilty but the fit is great.

Very comfortable and protects from biting wind
Used the balaclava when hiking at 14,000 ft and proved perfect to protect from some bitterly cold winds. Snug fit and very comfortable. Highly recommended
