Lightweight protection for cold starts and sunny climbs with the Base Balaclava

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:


"I’ve worn this on frigid ski days and appreciated how easily it fits under a helmet without bunching. The FlashDry fabric does a great job moving moisture, especially when I’m working hard in variable temps. The hinged design is convenient for quick breaks without having to pull the whole thing off."


When the wind sharpens and our breath turns to ice, we reach for the Base Balaclava from The North Face to keep our focus on the climb, not the cold. Its recycled FlashDry construction pulls moisture away while we push uphill, helping us stay warm without overheating beneath layers.


The low-profile fit slides cleanly under helmets for skiing, snowboarding, or mixed climbing, while the doubled-fabric zones block chill on exposed ridgelines. A hinged opening lets us drop the face panel when we need a breather or want to cool down. Whether we’re linking chairlift laps or moving steadily up firm snow, the Base Balaclava keeps our coverage consistent and comfortable.
