PURIAN Face Mask, Tie Behind Head Straps, Cord Locks, Dust Mask for Travel, Industrial, Work, Comfort, Black | 4 Pack

Any complaints about this are silly. Best mask I’ve tried, and I’m picky! Yes, some assembly required on the sincher thingies, but just get a skilly coat hanger or something to push straps through the holes is 5 minutes well spent on awesome tightening mechanism. Fabric is indeed interesting, almost a denim, but I think ideal for a mask as it retains form, allowing a pocket of air in front of your mouth/nose making it very easy to breathe. If concerned about it going thru the wash...hand wash it with some dish soap in the kitchen sink and let it air dry for a few hours, easy peasy! This mask stays on by itself, easy to pop on and off, and easy to breathe! First mask I can exercise in without going nuts or suffocating.

I love these masks because they are comfortable, and I do not like the ones that fit around my earlobes. these are great when mask is not needed for a while and you can pull it down but the mask remains around your neck like a necklace. easy to pull down and put back up quickly. the only thing I am not crazy about is the fastener that holds the cords together behind your head is a bit on the bulky side. when sitting in an airplane seat and you lean your head back, you feel fastener. the easy fix is to wear a neck pillow on flight, so your head does not touch the head rest. otherwise, these are great

It took a little bit to put the ends of the masks into the thing that adjusts them. But once I was able to do that they were good. Nice to not have them around my ears. I can pull down the mask & easily put it back on and best of all not so tight across my nose & mouth that I can't talk or breath. Pretty comfortable.

This is a couple layers of T shirt material with ties in back (which i like). The quick release allows you to make the elasticized straps tighter or looser and leave them set there, or pull the mask down when you're driving so you can free your face when you're in your car and pull it back up to do the next errand. I think it works better than a bandana and better than a lot of those 'fake medical' earloop masks that are like a piece of paper that is sitting in front of nose and mouth, not a real mask. Especially since people don't open up the accordion bits so it covers their whole lower faces and chins. If the mask doesn't seal, it isn't protecting you or anyone around you. This does seal, but it is too porous. So it's very convenient for quick errands or going to walk a dog... but when I'm going into the supermarket or somewhere I will be dealing with or around multiple people, I wear my old N95 mask under it. 1) the N95 offers needed extra protection because, old as it is and crappy as it has begun to look, it still makes a nice firm seal... and I sanitize it, so it's clean and it hasn't made my face break out. 2) if i wear the purian mask alone for any length of time, it fogs my glasses. This is not an issue walking outdoors in the neighborhood, but pretty much if I am indoors it fogs up b/c it is made of porous, breathable material and there's no metal nose piece to pinch down and close gaps, and no rubberized nose foam against my nose to create a seal. As a former first responder, I was used to wearing masks and also used them for remediating mold and doing woodwork... I'm used to wearing a mask for 6-8 hours over the course of a day (though before this mess started, usually *not* the same mask). **I don't wear a mask to 'look like' my face is covered, I wear it to protect me from the public *and* the public from me. ** Plus: mask is comfy and easy to adjust. probably won't cause breakouts. washable. Minus: mask gives limited protection unless worn with a second mask that does the protecting. bottom line: I wish this had a pocket for a filter and a metal nose piece... but then, the truth is, I wish I had an N95 grade mask that was this comfortable.

I don't want cords pulling on my ears, so I was hoping these Purian face covers would solve that problem. Unfortunately, although I like the basic design and idea of this mask, the product is deeply flawed. Beyond the maddening feeding of straps into the cord-lock bead and adjusting the unadjustable nose clip -- there's the itchy polyester material that, on the inside, pills and shards like crazy. I had never worn the masks. I simply put them in the wash for the first time -- and the back side of the material dissolved into some sort of stringy, linty mess. The masks are not unwearable, but the thin strings are uncomfortable -- and of course, the white lint gets on the front. One star. There's nothing quite as bad as a good idea -- poorly executed.

Liked em so much I bought another pack. Mine came assembled and have washed them over 20 times regularly and dried in the dryer. Not 1 issue with a single mask! I had a problem with masks staying over my nose and I hate the stringy masks that tearup your ears. These masks fit wide and are a bit thick! Tightens exactly where you want it and as tight as you want it. Love em! Lifesavers. Downfall is the strings are rather long and hang off the back of your head and neck. If you guys don't mind looking like safe ninjas, I recommend these!

Okay. Don’t listen to the other reviewers saying it’s impossible to breathe through. Yes it is not as easy as without a mask but this actually helps filter a little bit. Don’t listen to the people who can’t get the straps through the little clamp things. Don’t be silly, use a small safety pin and attach them together, and then simply pull them through. Common sense is an issue for some people! The safety pin works otherwise it is really difficult to get them through. You never have a need to take them apart after that though! The strings are a little short but they stretch ALOT! Be safe out there!

didn't come with the cord lock had to go and buy my own. the masks them selfs seem fine

Muy buen producto ,justo lo que estababuscando

My husband finds these the most comfortable masks he’s tried. He has a hard time anything around his ears. These fit his large head with room to spare. The little bead on the string gives lots of room for adjustment. He cut some of the string off so he had no issues with them getting caught in stuff at work. They are quite big, and my husband has a big head lol. They cover his whole nose mouth and chin with no issues. Would buy again. Wash up well too.

Ties are difficult for older people with arthritic hands. A velcro strap would be better option. My mother couldn't use it4!

These are extremely large!!! They don’t have a sizing in the ad for them so it is deceiving. There also is no metal bridge for the nose. I might be a small person, but, I don’t believe they should almost cover my whole face.

None
