PGwear Madboy Balaclava with Comic Print

Drawn face on one half of a close-fitting hood

The Madboy pulls over the whole head and reaches down into the neck. The print divides it into two halves. On one side a comic face stares out with an eye opened wide and teeth bared, the brand name running above it in broad, angular characters, all of it in black, grey and white. Thick drops run downwards under the eye, as though the colour were leaking. The other side is plain black.

The two eye openings are covered with black mesh. A small patch with the brand crest sits low on the front. A seam runs over the crown and gives the hood its shape; below, it reaches well past the neck and disappears under a collar. The fabric is a stretch blend of 86% polyester and 14% elastane, which is why the hood lies close to the head.

One size, one colourway

The elastane content goes along with different head shapes, so the Madboy comes in a single size.

When it gets used

Under a helmet in winter, on the bike against a headwind, in a ski resort or as part of a costume. Under a hood only the printed half stays visible.
