The eclipse Gaiter ~ A strong choice for wintry days
Our Gaiters combine sun protection and stretch in an adaptable form.
The gaiter’s stretch and fit let you pull it up over your nose and mouth, serving as a windbreaker face shield to reduce cold air intrusion.
Its yoke neckline extends coverage to upper chest and back of neck, reducing gaps where snow or wind might sneak under your jacket collar.
Tips to maximize using the Gaiter in snow conditions:
Pull it up over your face and ears to protect from cold wind and snow.
Combine with an insulating layer (e.g. a thin fleece buff or neck warmer) on very cold days.
Seal edges ~ make sure your jacket collar, hood, and helmet overlap well so snow and wind can’t sneak inside.
Vent it when needed ~ if you overheat (climbing, sun exposure), pull it down or open a jacket vent.
Dry it out at breaks ~ snow melt or sweat can reduce performance, so air it or dry it in a pocket if needed.
Test the fit with your helmet and goggles before real ski runs, ensuring it doesn’t create pressure spots or interfere with seals.
