Face Protection Solved
Mountaineering Package
Our mountaineering package represents the culmination of 10 years of hand-making masks for Sherpa and western guides on Everest, K2, Denali, and Antarctica. Using this invaluable feedback, our 5th and 6th production faceGloves provide the perfect balance of protection, comfort, and weight, in the most challenging conditions. Our mountaineering package includes both our flagship cold-weather mask, the faceGlove, and our light-weight, "all conditions," faceGlove FLEX.

Kami Rita Sherpa - The most experienced high-altitude mountaineer, ever.
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.

@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.

I am hooked on my faceGlove. I feel like I cannot ski without it anymore.

Born from the White Mountains of NH
OuterU's StoryKevin grew up skiing the windy and icey slopes of NH. After college, he headed west to see if the ski-movie powder-fantasy was real. One cold and windy morning, a mentor told him to put duct tape on his nose and checks because "everything else fogged goggles." Kevin knew there had a be a better solution.
