Buyer's guide

What makes a balaclava tactical?

A tactical balaclava is judged by how well it works with other gear. It must be thin enough not to push a helmet out of place, keep the ears free for headsets, dry quickly and blend in rather than stand out. Colour and pattern follow the environment: plain dark colours for security work, camouflage for hunting and outdoor use.

For flame-resistant versions, see our flame-resistant balaclavas.

  • Security teams

FAQ

Tactical balaclavas: frequently asked questions

What is the minimum order for tactical balaclavas?

The minimum order is 50 pieces per design. Larger runs are made on the same lines, with a monthly capacity of around 100,000 pieces.

Can you print our own camouflage pattern?

Yes. Send your pattern file and we print it by sublimation on polyester or Lycra, matched to your colour references in the sample.

Will the balaclava fit under a helmet and a headset?

That is how we design them: a thin crown, flat seams and shaped ear areas. Tell us which helmets and headsets your customers use and we test the fit in the sample.

Do you make flame-resistant tactical balaclavas?

Yes. We make flame-resistant balaclavas with lab test reports available on request, and your own laboratory can test samples before you certify the product for your market.

How long does tactical balaclava production take?

Samples are sent within 5–7 days of your order. Once the sample is approved, standard lead time is 14 days; 7 days is possible on request. Complex products or very large orders (100,000–200,000 pcs) can take up to one month. Express shipping by DHL, FedEx or UPS then takes 3–6 working days.
