You have to think about this
These face masks are extra comfortable. They fit nicely around the nose and sweep down to close snugly right under the jaw line. They poke out a bit infront allowing for this nice pocket of air that makes these super comfortable and very easy to breathe in when you are up and moving around. It's an excellent design, mostly. If you are like me, wearing the disposable masks most of the time then you know all about the itchy fibers inside the mask, the burning of the strings behind your ears. So comfort is a bit of a thing for me.<br />That leads us to the downside. There isn't any sort of wire along the top for your nose. What happens here is you have a space where the air you are breathing basically swishes upward. Now if you are conscious of safety as your main concern this is a big fail for a face mask. It should be fitting close to your face around the edges of the mask, otherwise the vapors are escaping and it defeats the purpose of wearing a mask in the first place.<br />That's not to say I think this is entirely a fail. These might be fine for the most part but if you are in a close space with a group of people this is probably not the best mask to be wearing to be considerate of other people's safety.<br /><br />I believe I will be able to use them because I have my own office and I'm not really close to a lot of people. Regardless of that I keep the mask on at all times just to keep other people safe. So I will likely wear these as I think they will do enough under those circumstances.
