The warmest merino in our lineup, the Merino Expedition Hood combines full-coverage protection with the natural performance of merino wool. Built with 230 GSM Nuyarn® merino wool and the proprietary ExoHinge™ adjustable face hinge, the Merino Expedition Hood delivers serious warmth and protection.
Nuyarn® is a twist-free spinning technique that amplifies the natural performance of merino with natural odor resistance, faster drying, greater stretch, improved thermal retention, and increased durability. The result is a warmer, tougher merino balaclava built for summits, storm laps, and winter expeditions of any kind.
Warmth that breathes:
230 GSM Nuyarn® merino regulates temperature, breathes naturally, and dries fast to keep you warm without staying wet.
Adapts with every move:
ExoHinge™ face hinge lets you quickly adjust your coverage as conditions and output change.
Built to wear on repeat:
Naturally odor-resistant merino stays fresh through intense effort and is ideal for multi-day missions.
Fits under your lid. No pressure points:
4-way stretch, flatlock seams, and an under-helmet fit reduce bulk and pressure points under helmets and goggles.
Merino made tougher:
Nuyarn® construction increases stretch, strength, seam durability, and thermal performance while maintaining the natural comfort of merino wool.
Best suited for:
Skiing, snowboarding, winter sports, backcountry touring, cold-weather outdoor activities, and wherever winter takes you.
