Travis Rice Merino Balaclava - Storm FAQ
Why merino wool instead of a synthetic balaclava?
The TR Merino Balaclava is built from a NaturalTech UPF 50+ Merino Blend, 91% merino wool / 9% polyamide. Merino delivers naturally breathable warmth and odor resistance that synthetics can't replicate, making it a solid pick for repeated wear across a multi-day trip without needing a wash.
Will this fit under my helmet okay?
Yes, the TR Merino Balaclava is built with a helmet-compatible fit, so the merino jersey sits close under a helmet shell without adding bulk. All-direction stretch in the fabric also helps it move naturally with the helmet instead of bunching.
Is this meant for hard-charging days or more relaxed riding?
Coal built this balaclava for touring, resort riding, and high-output missions, pairing lightweight, breathable merino warmth with all-direction stretch. It's designed to regulate temperature during aerobic effort, so it works whether you're skinning uphill or lapping the resort.
How is this different from the TR Merino Neck Gaiter?
Both use the same NaturalTech UPF 50+ Merino Blend (91% merino / 9% polyamide), but this is a full balaclava with helmet-compatible face coverage, while the neck gaiter covers just the neck and lower face. Pick the balaclava if you want full head and face coverage under your helmet.
Will I stay dry if I'm working hard in this?
Merino wool is naturally breathable, and this blend is built specifically for lightweight, breathable warmth alongside all-direction stretch. That combination is meant to keep moisture and heat regulated during high-output efforts rather than trapping sweat against your face.
