I am looking for new cloth masks with the ear adjusters. Old Navy masks don't have a nose wire, that's why I haven't purchased any. I prefer having that.


@Greeneyedlady21 

 

I purchased some very well made 100% cotton, two layer, masks, adjustable wire across nose, adjustable ears, and nice choice of fabrics, with pocket inside to slide in coffee filter if wanted.  They wash well.  Made by a company who makes childrens cotton clothes, but re- tooled to also make adult and children masks.  They are on Amazon.

Will send info if you are interested.

I've tried a bunch of different types of masks.  The nose thing always wears through the material and the ear adjustors are nice, but they hurt.  And no matter what I've tried, my glasses fog up, especially in the cold weather and going from cold outdoors to a warm indoor setting.  I purchased some special de fogger from my eye doctor which works a bit but still gets fogged up.

Yes, the fogging of glasses is just aggravating,and the mask sliding up to my eyes ,just can not stand that, tried ways too stop that but not much luck.

@Drythe 

Have you actually tried to use a coffee filter inside a mask? I did and I couldn't even breathe through it at all.

Yes, indeed, I do wear them that way.  Perhaps it works OK because the layers of the mask are 100% cotton.  I have asthma and no problem breathing with it and coffee filter.

 

I also have real N-95 masks which I had in stock > Pandemic.

I wear one or the other depending on where I’m going.

 

When I go to hospital for 6 week blood draw I wear N-95 with their surgical mask over it.  Everyone is satisfied.
