Stay Warm With a Ski Neck Gaiter

Ski neck gaiters, also referred to as neck warmers, protect your neck and face from cold weather. They sit around your neck, ensuring it is shielded from the elements while also offering some UV protection. There's a wide range of ski gaiters available, and you can choose a style that either only covers the neck or extends to protect the mouth and lower face as well.

The best ski neck gaiter for you depends on your preferred style and the conditions you'll be skiing in. However, there are essential features to consider. Ski neck warmers should be lightweight and breathable to avoid hindering your performance, and they should also be moisture-wicking to keep you warm. Consequently, many skiers opt for gaiters made from merino wool or polyester.

If you'll be skiing in extremely cold conditions and your priority is warmth, choose a gaiter made from thicker materials. On the other hand, if you're worried about excessive sweating, select a thinner model made from materials like nylon or polyester.

Another option is to use a balaclava, which covers your neck and protects your face, leaving only a small opening around your eyes. To explore our selection of balaclavas and ski hats, visit our Ski Hats & Balaclavas category.
