Mask that’s not quite there yet.
Reviewed in USA  22-Feb-2021<br />Item:<br />Buttonsmith Black Adult XL Cotton Adjustable Face Mask - Made in the USA<br /><br />PRO:  These Masks are: comfortable, soft and lightweight.  I am 6’1” tall and bought the XL size for myself and the L size for my wife.  The specifically signed masks fit both my wife and myself well, with good extension up the bridge of the nose, and extends well under the chin.  In addition the ear straps ARE ADJUSTABLE 😄.<br /><br />CONS:  And, in my opinion these con’s ARE SIGNIFICANT.<br /><br />1.  THERE IS NO metal or plastic strip at the top of the mask to make it conform to the bridge of the nose.<br /><br />2.  Without disassembling a mask, it appears  THERE ARE NOT 3 layers of fabric forming the face mask.  THERE APPEARS to be only TWO layers of fabric used in the mask assembly<br /><br />I believe that the available guidance from Dr. Fauci and CDC calls for 3 layers of material in the body of the mask.<br /><br />3.  The interior pocket for a filter covers the entire interior surface of the mask.  The here is no notification what size filter to use with the mask.  I am concerned that the PM2.5 filters would migrate within the pocket to a position where they would be ineffective.<br /><br />This final statement is going to sound snarky, for which I apologize in advance if is not called for, but I choose to wear face masks to protect myself as well as those whom I come into contact.  I DO NOT CHOOSE TO WEAR MASKS AS A FASHION STATEMENT.
