Airhole

Airhole was created by Canadian professional snowboarders Chris Brown and Kale Stephens after getting tired of face masks becoming wet and uncomfortable from breathing in harsh winter conditions. Their solution started on an old sewing machine using pieces of discarded outerwear and eventually became the patented Airhole Breath Hole. Today, the brand develops its face protection around the demanding conditions of British Columbia’s Coast Mountains.

Why we carry it at OVAP: This is one of those products that solves a very Canadian problem. Airhole is ideal for skiers, snowboarders and anyone outside in cold weather who wants comfortable face protection without feeling like they’re breathing into a wet piece of fabric all day.
