Why Choose the Arc'teryx Bucket Liner?
The Arc'teryx Bucket Liner 4306, introduced in 2004, is listed in the catalog as "for those protecting their noodles from high-speed impact, who also want protection from Jack Frost". Initially, I assumed it was padded for head protection, but it’s a lightweight, low-profile microfleece liner designed for wearing under a helmet or alone. This low-profile, specially contoured toque is perfect for skiing, climbing, snowboarding, and mountaineering. It features a breathable mesh top for a slim fit and a subtle rubber patch with the 'bird word' logo.

How I Use the Bucket Liner
This Arc'teryx Beanie doesn't get much use, as I wear beanies or balaclavas when snowboarding in the cold.
Snowboarding: I wear the Bucket Liner under my snowboard helmet on cold days to add warmth without compromising the helmet’s fit. The microfleece wicks sweat, keeping my head dry.
