Balaclavas were primarily worn by those enjoying outdoor winter sports such as skiing and hiking.
However, nowadays, balaclavas have transformed into a winter accessory due to their effectiveness in cold weather and the variety of attractive designs available.
They come in a variety of colors and designs. Many people enjoy knitting their own unique balaclavas at home.
BLACKPINK's Lisa wore a hand-knitted balaclava. She styled it cutely with a hoodie, adding a retro vibe.
Gong Hyo-jin and An Yujin styled the balaclava in a traditional way, covering most of their neck and face.This approach is especially effective in keeping warm in cold weather while allowing for a stylish look.
Like Kim Hee-sun, you can also layer the balaclava with other hats or hoods. It gives a hip and youthful feel.
Wearing a balaclava during active outdoor activities or sports is not only stylish but also helpful for the activity itself due to its cold protection. It's advisable to choose a material with good breathability for such occasions.
Depending on how it's worn, it can create different looks each day, and as one item, the balaclava can provide the effect of both a hat and a scarf. Balaclavas can offer warmth like wearing an extra layer of clothing on a cold day. If you don't have one yet, consider adding it to your cart before it gets colder.
