FAQs
What material is the Under Armour Storm Balaclava made of?
The balaclava is made from 88% Polyester and 12% Elastane, featuring a dual-layer ColdGear fabric.
How do I clean the balaclava?
Machine wash cold with like colors. Use non-chlorine bleach only when needed. Tumble dry on low heat. Do not iron or dry clean.
Can this balaclava be worn as a neck gaiter?
Yes, the design offers full facial coverage that extends below the neck and can be converted to function as a neck gaiter.
Is the balaclava suitable for very cold temperatures?
Yes, the dual-layer ColdGear fabric with a warm, brushed interior is designed for cold weather conditions.
Does the UA Storm technology affect breathability?
No, UA Storm technology repels water without sacrificing breathability, allowing moisture vapor to escape.
What age group is this balaclava intended for?
This balaclava is intended for adults.
How does the fabric wick sweat?
The material is designed to wick sweat away from your skin to the surface of the fabric, where it can then evaporate quickly.
Troubleshooting
Balaclava feels too tight or restrictive
Ensure the balaclava is fully extended. If it persists, consider if full face coverage is necessary for the current activity. The material has some stretch, and may loosen slightly with wear.
Water is seeping through the fabric
Check if the fabric has been treated with any detergents or fabric softeners that may degrade the UA Storm water-repellent finish. Ensure there are no tears or damage to the fabric. For optimal performance, follow care instructions precisely.
Interior feels clammy despite wicking claims
This can occur during extremely high-exertion activities. Ensure the exterior is not saturated with water, which can impede drying. Gentle machine washing without fabric softeners can help restore wicking properties.
Elasticity seems reduced
Avoid excessive heat during washing or drying, as this can damage the elastane fibers. Ensure the garment is air-dried or tumble-dried on a low setting.
