The new Talus ColdAvenger high performance mask is a breath of warm air as high-tech ventilation system allows users to “Stay Out Longer”

Missoula, MT—October 23, 2008--Talus Outdoor Technologies, LLC, a leading innovator in technologically advanced outdoor gear, introduces the ColdAvenger, an advanced, high quality cold weather protection mask developed by a physician and a skier. The mask is the result of more than two years of research and development testing in Northern Rocky Mountain winters to achieve four functional goals: thermal comfort, ventilation adequacy, moisture control, and ease of breathing during hard work or play. The genius of ColdAvenger’s  simple ventilation design allows for easy fit for comfort and ease of breathing with no moving or mechanical parts. 

These criteria were selected because cold air exposure of the face and airways is a form of chronic trauma, and keeping the air warm and humidified and the facial skin warm and dry helps mitigate against cold weather related health effects. The final design was determined based on results of technical studies and science-based evidence that supports the Talus ColdAvenger’s efficacy in cold weather protection and the requirement for safety of the final product. 

The face piece is made of medical grade biocompatible plastic selected for its safety, microbial resistance, and overall cold weather endurance. The fabric is a windproof, water resistant outer softshell with inner fleece lining and comfortable stretch to fit the face, ears, and neck.. The result is a state-of-the-art product that keeps your face warm and dry while helping to humidify inhaled cold air and allowing you to breathe freely. The medical grade polyurethane nose and mouth chamber mixes inhaled cold air with exhaled warm air to achieve a dynamic balance of warmth and humidity while keeping moisture away from the face. 

The Talus ColdAvenger’s™ patent-pending ventilation technology actually keeps temperatures insidethe mask 40? - 60?F higher than outside.
