OuterU faceGlove®

- High-performance face protection trusted by ski patrols and polar guides -

faceGlove® is the standard model of face protection gear used by guide and rescue teams working in harsh environments such as Everest, Denali, and Antarctica.

While retaining the lightness and warmth of Polartec® High Loft fleece,
It combines a unique structure that does not restrict breathing with a fit that can be heat-molded to fit your face.
It ensures protection for the sensitive area around the nose and also prevents fogging of goggles.

By combining it with a stretch tube such as bala or Buff,
It offers even greater protection and comfort.

Accessories include a head strap and ear loops that can be selected according to your needs.
