Cold weather neck tube with a heat exchanger built in!
If you hate your neck tube getting soaked in the middle of a ski like we do, you'll want this piece from Ulko Gear. Built in Minnesota, the Talvi Air Gaiter uses a heat exchanger to warm and humidify the air you breathe in. You no longer have to choose between hurting your lungs with cold, dry winter air and breathing through a wet slab of fabric. It's a cold air gaiter built for people who don't want winter air to dictate their pace. As you exhale, the insert captures the warmth and moisture in your breath. That stored warmth preheats your next breath, taking the edge off frigid air before it reaches your lungs. Compared to a standard cloth gaiter or balaclava, the Talvi Air has 10x lower breathing resistance, so you can keep your effort up without feeling like you're breathing through fabric. The gaiter is one size fits all. The Talvi Air 2.0 is more comfortable and stays in place better than other options on the market. Runners, cyclists, fatbikers, skiers, snowshoers, and anyone who spends time outside in the cold and notices cold air affecting their breathing will love this product. That includes mild irritation on cold days as well as conditions people manage more carefully, like cold-induced asthma or COPD sensitivity. It's a practical upgrade for anyone who wants to train through a Canadian winter without cold air slowing them down. The Talvi Air 2.0 comes pre-equipped with a 'Sport' insert for average activity.
Ulko Gear makes performance outdoor gear for cold-weather running, skiing, snowboarding, and winter cycling. The Talvi Air breathing gaiter reduces resistance 10x versus a typical fabric gaiter, warming the air you breathe so you can push harder in extreme cold.
