Has anyone bought quality, comfortable, good looking face masks? The pleated versions look like they may fit the bet. There are tons of options out there, but as with anything rushed I'm sure some are garbage.
With the reality of more mask-wearing in our daily lives it's time to pick up a few. Please share your finds.

I got one like this. Comfortable and it has a pocket for n95 filters. If you can't find filters, you can get the material from special air conditioning filters that are designed for allergens (essentially n95).
- Better to use are hepa vacuum bags. Easy to cut them up to put in you maskGnash
- Just make sure there is no fiberglass in the bags or filters.wordssssss

- Do you have any? I'm concerned that the plastic piece to cinch. up the cord sitting against the back of your ear may become painful over long wear.MarleyMarl
- it will, and your ears will hurt after a day or two.sted
- there is a 3d printed plastic piece what fixes these issues in this type of masks.sted
- I do have the ASRV mask. There are a few versions that they've made now. It's not uncomfortable at all. I use mine when out running.BaskerviIle
- I have a proper N95 mask for more high contact situations like going to the supermaketBaskerviIle
- ^ where did you get it? link? I looked on ebay just now and it looks REALLY spammy right nowcherub

90% of these is garbage, protects from nothing.

https://www.cdc.gov/…MarleyMarl - they protect others of you sneezing or coughing on them. they're no meant to protect the air you breath in.fooler
- but that isn't going to sale as nice as when we say that "this KN95 FFP23456 level type mask protects you from the virus"sted
- sted is correct - most of the ones you see out there do NOT prevent virus particles from going throughKrassy
- They protect me from not being allowed in the grocery store.nb
- I liked it better the way I put it... if the filter isn’t small enough, you might as well wrap toilet paper around your head.imbecile
- They help though. That’s the point.monospaced
- they help like a cotton t shirt helps keep you dry in the rain, when you should really be wearing a raincoat.imbecile
- the beginning of this video illustrates the need for proper filter masksimbecile

- yeah, you're right...just use the rhythm methodBaskerviIle
- That analogy isn’t a good one. A T-shirt to protect against some particulate vs the same thing against a downpour? Please.monospaced
- Of course something is better than nothing. Even a couple of layers is shown to be a great help.monospaced
- It's true. It's like if I'm not bringing a raincoat I also don't bother with a t shirt. Weird looks on the subway, but people are idiots.nb
- "Why are you looking at me, when you're not even wearing raincoats!?", is what I shout at them. Idiots!!nb
