How Huna Began: A Family’s Love of the Mountains


Skiing and snowboarding have always been part of our family’s life. From growing up on the slopes to bringing our own children along, fresh snowfall has always given us a reason to head for the mountains.

A familiar problem on the slopes

Jessie, the creator of The Huna, noticed that her husband Andrew and his daughters had stopped wearing their neck warmers.

The reason was simple: they felt too tight around the face and neck. For the girls, pulling them on and off also meant tangled hair after a day of skiing.

Jessie wanted to find a more comfortable way for her family to cover their faces during winter adventures.

It started at the sewing table

Jessie began making bandana-style ski masks using fabric from craft-store blankets and hook-and-loop fasteners.

Those first homemade bandanas quickly became family favorites. Over time, she refined the fabrics, fit, and attachment system, developing the design that became The Huna.

A different way to wear a ski mask

Rather than wrapping tightly around the neck, the Huna bandana attaches to the sides of a ski helmet.

That simple idea grew from listening to her family and solving a problem they experienced on the mountain.

From our family to your next adventure

What began at a sewing table became something we wanted to share with other skiers and snowboarders.

Thank you for being part of our story. We hope your Huna comes along for plenty of mountain memories.
