More Information
Summary:Herein is disclosed a protective balaclava. The balaclava may include a layer of foam, which may bear certain non-Newtonian properties, such as hardening in response to impact. To a wearer of such a balaclava, the risk of concussion in response to collision, for example, is significantly reduced. The balaclava may be worn in conjunction with other protective wear, such as a helmet. The balaclava may include various features to permit a snug fit between the foam and the human form, even though the balaclava may be sized according to head size. La présente invention concerne un passe-montagne de protection. Le passe-montagne peut comprendre une couche de mousse, qui peut supporter certaines propriétés non newtoniennes, telles qu'un durcissement en réponse à un impact. Pour le porteur d'un tel passe-montagne, le risque de commotion cérébrale en cas de collision, par exemple, est considérablement réduit. Le passe-montagne peut être porté conjointement avec d'autres vêtements de protection, tels qu'un casque. Le passe-montagne peut comprendre diverses caractéristiques pour permettre un ajustement serré entre la mousse et la forme humaine, même si le passe-montagne peut être dimensionné selon la taille de la tête.
