A lightweight liner that blocks wind while staying breathable on long climbs.
Montane says:
Designed to protect from the elements, the Windjammer Helmet Liner will fit underneath a climbing helmet or work as a stand alone hat. Providing the unparalleled weather protection of Windstopper by Gore-Tex Labs around the headband, the crown of the hat is constructed from a breathable fabric with a fleece backer for ultimate comfort next to the skin
Our Verdict
The Montane Windjammer Helmet Liner weighs 27g and combines a windproof headband with a thinner, more breathable crown fabric. The fit is low-profile and shaped to cover the ears, with flat-locked seams that sit comfortably under a helmet. I have used previous versions of this hat as a go-to for winter climbing, and the updated material feels noticeably lighter while maintaining the same level of protection. The fleece backing is soft against the skin and manages warmth effectively without overheating. Odour control treatments add to its practicality for repeated use. The balance of wind protection, breathability and packability makes it a dependable choice for technical cold-weather activity.
