Description

FIG. 1 is an elevational view of a heated balaclava showing my new design:

FIG. 2 is a side elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a front elevational view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a top plan view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a back elevational view thereof;

FIG. 6 is a bottom plan view thereof; and,

FIG. 7 is a back elevational view thereof, showing the balaclava turned inside out.

The larger face opening and the shorter sides shown in the drawing of FIG. 1 are caused by the material being stretched over a person's head while in use.

The evenly spaced broken lines showing a face, shirt, bottom edge and rear chest flap, and a square pattern in the drawings are for the purpose of illustrating environmental matter and form no part of the claimed design. The long-and-two-short broken lines along the bottom edge that define the bounds of the claimed design form no part thereof.

Claims

The ornamental design for a heated balaclava, as shown.
