Description
The Unity Cold Weather Liner (CWL) is designed to install in any helmet with Velcro pads. By integrating directly into the helmet, the CWL creates a barrier against the elements with micro fiber fleece that keeps the wearer’s head warm. The material thickness creates minimal or no displacement of pads that can cause the helmet to not ride properly, as is the case while wearing a standard beanie under the shell. This ensures correct shell coverage of the head, alignment of night vision goggles, and fitting of communications gear. Operator comfort is increased exponentially by providing more coverage to exposed areas under the helmet shell with dual layer fleece while the same pads that normally contact the head will continue to do so with the CWL installed.
Being constantly ready to fight is a tough task in favorable weather conditions. But, Mother Nature rarely wants to play ball and bad guys rarely choose the most hospitable conditions to pick a fight. The human body is not designed to operate in extreme cold and its effects can quickly degrade your ability to wage violence on doers-of-dastardly-deeds. Maintaining warmth is key to optimal mental and physical capability to carry the fight.
Problem: Helmets and their myriad accessories must be properly fitted and adjusted to an individual’s head in order to provide optimal use of night vision goggles, communications gear, and other necessary accessories. Wearing cold weather gear under a helmet severely degrades comfort and causes crucial operational gear to not sit correctly on the operator’s head, decreasing your efficiency. And, the weight of the helmet sliding on a cold weather hat will cause it to bunch, leaving sensitive areas exposed to the cold.
