Available exclusively on Massdrop, this custom balaclava is an ultralight companion for your down quilt or hoodless jacket. At only 1 ounce, this hood is ideal for backpacking, climbing, kayaking, canoeing, motorcycle touring, traveling, or any activity that calls for minimum weight and maximum adaptability. The standard 10d fabric has been swapped with a lighter 8d version that boasts better water and wind resistance, and the down filling has been increased from 850- to 950-fill goose down. Smooth drawstring cords around the face let you adjust the opening for better exposure control, and a large facial opening lets you wear the balaclava around your neck.
Note: At checkout, you’ll have your choice of the regular fill (base price) or double fill (+ $10) in smoke gray.
Ben Smith founded Goosefeet Gear during his third year of college at the Georgia Institute of Technology. The company started with down socks, and soon added waterproof over-booties and pillows. Today, 6 years later, its product line includes everything from down jackets, pants, and vests to sleeping quilts—all made by hand here in the USA.
