Merino Wool Balaclava
The Merino Wool Balaclava from the i.FiV5 by Simons CELSIUS collection is a one-piece knit head and neck cover designed in Canada for winter sports. It is made from a merino wool blend that wicks moisture and dries quickly, with a single rounded face opening, long neck coverage, flatlock panel seams, a bound face-opening edge, a double-stitched hem, and a reflective i.FiV5 logo. The black knit balaclava has contrasting gray stitching and covers the head, forehead, chin, and neck during cold-weather activity.
