3 Layer Cotton Mask with jersey fabric ties
Safe and comfortable, handmade face masks made with 3 layers of 100% high quality Cotton - (outer layer, lining layer and filter pocket layer).
"...filtering experiments show tightly woven 100% cotton outperforming most synthetics. This may be because synthetic fibers are relatively smooth at the microscopic level, while cotton fibers have a somewhat three-dimensional structure that likely creates additional barriers to both outgoing and incoming particles." - MIT Medical (08/2020)
Adjustable metal nose piece gaurantees a comfortable and secure fit.
Soft cotton jersey fabric ties allow for a perfect, customized and secure fit, while also providing a convenient way to keep your mask readily availble around your neck, when not in use.
Around the head design prevents painful ear strain! Perfect for those who need to keep their masks on for long periods of time. Also great for people with glasses and/or hearing aids.
***SEE SLIDES IN ITEM PICS FOR SIZING INFO and COLOR/PATTERN OPTIONS
Please note that each mask is carefully handmade. Therefore, slight variations are to be expected, even in masks made from the same bolt of fabric.
***HEPA FILTERS SOLD SEPARATELY
for additional protection, removeable HEPA filter inserts are also available. See separate listing in my shop.
HEPA filters are shown to effectively capture and trap ultrafine virus particles as small as 0.01 microns. (The virus that causes COVID-19 is much larger at approximately 0.125 microns in diameter - so, no problem for these filters).
Care Instructions
Each mask is completely washer/dryer safe, however for best results, I recommend hand washing or machine washing in a mesh bag on delicate cycle. Reshape and hang dry or machine dry on low heat.
