The SIGNAL_07 is built around a structural decision most hoodies skip: a balaclava hood with its own independent zipper. The washed cotton-poly shell carries a broken-in, low-sheen surface that reads lived-in from day one — not stiff, not synthetic. The oversized drop-shoulder cut falls wide across the chest and sits clean over whatever's underneath.
Two closures give you actual control. The chest half-zip adjusts the neckline without committing to a full open; the balaclava zipper handles face coverage separately. Snap-button side pockets sit flush against the body, and ribbed cuffs lock the hem in place — useful on cold transit rides or outdoor venue queues where the temperature swings fast.
Standard balaclava hoodies give you one fixed face opening with no adjustment. This one separates those two functions so you can dial each independently. Available in Gray 2239 and Black 2239, S through XXXL, at $102.00 USD.
Technical Highlights

-
Closures & Hardware: Dual-zipper system — independent half-zip at the chest and a separate zipper on the integrated balaclava face opening; snap-button side pockets.
-
Sizing Guidance: Cut intentionally oversized. Order true to size for the designed silhouette; size down one for a closer, more structured fit.

FAQ
-
Does the SIGNAL_07 run true to size, or should I size up?
The SIGNAL_07 is intentionally cut oversized — order your true size for the designed relaxed drape, or go one size down if you want it to sit closer to the body.
-
What's the fabric like — is it heavy or lightweight?
It's a washed cotton-poly blend that sits in a mid-weight range: not a thin shell, not a heavy fleece. The washed finish gives it a broken-in texture from the start, and the blend keeps it breathable enough to wear under outerwear without overheating.
-
How is this different from other balaclava hoodies on the market?
Most balaclava hoodies have a single fixed face opening with no independent adjustment. The SIGNAL_07 separates the chest half-zip and the balaclava face zipper into two distinct closures, so you can adjust coverage at the neck and face independently.
-
What's the best way to style the SIGNAL_07 for a darkwear fit?
Wear it as a mid-layer under a heavy cargo shell or utility vest, with the balaclava zipped up for full coverage. For a standalone fit, pair it with wide-leg cargo pants and chunky boots.
-
How do I wash the SIGNAL_07 without ruining the texture or zippers?
Machine wash cold, inside out, on a gentle cycle. Skip the dryer — hang dry or lay flat to preserve the washed fabric finish and keep the zipper pulls from catching on other garments.
