Funny Balaclava With a Blocky Cartoon Head

A funny balaclava is a full-face winter mask with a joke built in.

It covers your head, face and neck like any balaclava, has one wide eye opening sized for ski goggles and fits under most helmets. It costs $24.99 USD. Your local price is shown in the buy box.

What is a funny balaclava?

A balaclava is a knit or fabric mask that covers your whole head and neck, with an opening for your eyes. Most are black and plain. They're made to disappear under a helmet. A funny balaclava keeps the same idea but adds a face, a shape or a character, so the mask itself is the joke. You still get cover from the wind on the chairlift. You also get people pointing at you in the lift line, in a good way.

How is Blockhead different from a regular balaclava?

Blockhead isn't a plain flat mask. The head has a shape: it's blocky and toy-like, with a knit knob on top. The face has thick black eyebrows above the goggle opening and the mouth below it, so with your goggles on the whole thing reads as one cartoon head.

If you need a serious base layer for extreme cold, wear one. Blockhead is the mask you put on when you want your day to be funnier, not warmer at all costs.

Which funny face should I pick?

There are four faces. They all share the same yellow blocky head, knob and eyebrows.

• Tongue Out: a cheeky smile with a red tongue sticking out. See Tongue Out.
• Big Grin: a wide smile with one row of white teeth. It's the face most people pick. See Big Grin.
• Chomp: a huge grin with a full grid of top and bottom teeth. See Chomp.
• Smirk: a sly one-sided smirk, for people who like to be funny quietly. See Smirk.

Will a funny balaclava fit me?

Blockhead comes in one size, made from polyester stretch knit (about 150 g), for adult heads about 22–23 in (56–59 cm). Measure around your head just above the eyebrows, where a beanie would sit. If you wear glasses, read will it fit over glasses? first. It's adult size, so it isn't designed for kids. More on that on are ski masks for kids?

Where can you wear a funny balaclava?

On the chairlift, in the gondola, on cold-day laps and at après with your helmet off. That last one is where the blocky head and knob really show. It's also an easy gift for the skier or snowboarder who already owns all the serious gear. See gifts for skiers and gifts for snowboarders.
