Strap System

As a professional skier and mountain athlete, I’m constantly out in the elements.  Protecting my face, and more specifically my skin, from the cold and the sun is really important to me, which is why a faceGlove is always in my pocket or backcountry pack.

I was given a faceGlove 7 years ago by another guide, and have used it on every climb since. My whole team uses faceGloves now. I use it because the faceGlove works better than creams for fighting the high altitude sun, and it's the best thing I've found to protect against frostbite, that does not fog glasses and goggles.

Guiness World Records: 26 Everest summits, 39 summits over 8,000 meters.

@outergear's bala™ is superior, I typically don’t wear face masks because they’re too hot and get wet but this one breathes so well and has an intelligent design for venting heat.
