Inspired by the historical battle gear from the Crimean War, the 1854 Balaclava is designed to withstand the harshest winter conditions. The balaclava takes its name from the Battle of Balaclava in 1854, during the Crimean War, where British soldiers, battling extreme cold, donned knitted headgear to stay warm. The British forces ultimately triumphed over the Russian army, and this piece of tactical wear has since become synonymous with cold-weather gear.
Made from a premium blend of 50% cotton, 35% wool, 10% angora, and 5% elastane, our 1854 Balaclava offers unbeatable warmth and comfort. The wool and angora provide superior insulation, while the elastane ensures a snug fit that moves with you. Its full-coverage design protects your face and neck from freezing temperatures, making it ideal for extreme cold-weather environments.
