Safe+Mate x Case-Mate - Cloth Face Mask - Washable & Reusable

I’ve tried countless masks all having one issue or another, but this mask has everything I was looking for, I’m currently making my third purchase of more of these masks to give to my coworkers. I am a bearded man and the large size fits perfectly over my beard. The soft cotton keeps the mask comfortable on the face. The filter pocket fits replacement filters perfectly. As of October 4th I’ve purchased 6 masks total and every single one has still held up through several wash cycles. It can be a little tight around the ears after a wash, but still not nearly as bad as some other masks that would actually start to give me rashes behind the ears. The large size does seem to be too big for my girlfriend, would also likely be too big for a man of my size without a beard.

I can't speak to the safety of the mask, although it is two layers--three once you add the filter insert. So maybe it's not an N95 or whatever, but neither is it a flimsy sports team-branded mask. It looks and feels substantial. But the best part is that it's super-comfortable, thanks mostly to the strap that fits around the back of your head, relieving your ears of the full burden of keeping the mask on. The material is also soft and pleasant, and the mask is snug around your nose and chin, molded with extra fabric to make it fit just right, with no gaps. This also helps it stay in position, even as you speak--which means no repositioning or tugging at the mask. I'm sure there are other good masks out there. I'm just glad I found this one. After my first three, I bought five more. They come individually packaged, and they're washable. I find I wear only these and ignore the other masks I bought earlier in the pandemic. Definitely worth a try if you're looking for a new mask.

Bought a 3 pack of the L/XL size, since many commented they run small. I have a 22 1/2" hat size (M/L by most hat sizing charts) as a relative face size indicator. For the 3 masks received, each is a slightly different size. The smallest fits quite snuggly, the mid-sized one fits perfectly and the largest size is a slightly looser fit. The poly/cotton blend material is very comfortable, easy to breath through, but somewhat porus/lightweight. I think the PM2.5 filter insert is needed for as long as Covid is lurking about. The filter insert does completely cover my nose and mouth when inserted properly. The back strap works well, to take pressure off the ear loops. Quality of construction seems pretty good. They fold-up nicely and easily fit in a zip lock sandwhich-size bag. I'll hand wash them in cold water and line dry them to avoid unwanted shrinkage.

It would be great if the band that goes behind your head was adjustable, but its not which makes the mask difficult to put on. My head is pretty big and with the band on, the mask is practically choking me. There is no option to take the band off, but to cut it off. I like the style of the mask but the comfort is just Not there. Update: After cutting off the permanent band thats strapped on to the back of the mask, it fits perfectly and comfortably.

First off, I want to make it clear that these observations are fresh out of the box, so to speak. I did not wash them before trying them out. That being said, here are my observations: 1) Getting them adjusted just right can be a bit fiddly. Watch the video, and notice the part where the wearer pulls up on the top of the ear loops. That's the key to getting a comfortable (or semi-comfortable) fit. You may have to do this more than once to get them adjusted for maximum comfort. 2) The lack of a nose band prevents a decently snug seal unless your face is perfectly shaped to whatever their design criteria was. I had definite gaps on both sides of the bridge of my nose, which caused a LOT of fogging up into my glasses. That much fogging indicates that there is a major air flow issue in that area, whether you wear glasses or not. That being said, they are no worse in this respect than the "home made" style mask, or any other mask that doe not have an adjustable nose bridge device. Will the fit in that area improve with washing? Only time will tell. 3) Definitely a snug fit. For me, that's a double edged blade, since I have a small face, but large head. (I know, weird, right?) For kids or more petite individuals this may not be an issue. My only concern is that I have had other brands/styles of similarly tight straps that pulled apart from the masks after a few uses. Again, washing may or may not improve this. 4) I've already purchased a substantial stock of the PM 2.5 filtering inserts which I use in other mask styles, and since it looks like they will fit OK, getting replacement filters won't be an issue, so long as those remain available. 5) The fabric, even unwashed, is comfortable on the face, and I can see how some folks could indeed prefer these for long term or daily use. Due to the fogging issue, for me, and I suspect for others who wear glasses, they are more suited for short duration use. 6) Since I switch out my masks regularly, and keep them accessible in multiple vehicles/locations, these will do just fine to get added into the use/wash/reuse rotation, especially for short period use. 7) Now that the focus of wearing a mask has been clarified that they are to be worn primarily to prevent breathing out infectious particles towards others, vs. the original concept that many of us had, i.em that we would wear them to prevent breathing in infectious particles, the design of this mask certainly seems to lend itself to accomplishing that intent. 8) All in all, decent quality, and although not my favorite style, still quite usable. These are certainly a step above the "homebrew" designs that many of us first started out with. 9) If I had not already found a design that I find highly effective and comfortable, these would be near the top of my list of preferred masks, or at least, somewhere in the middle. 10) Since none of us really know just how long it will be that masks are going to continue to be a major front line defense for Covid-19 (or 20, or 21, or whatever!) trying out different styles and designs is certainly worthwhile, since you have no idea if you may need a fallback option if your preferred choice becomes unavailable. With that in mind, these are certainly worth giving them a try.

Great value for money. The large face masks fit me perfectly and I love that they have the strap at the back so I can pull it up or down easily and don’t have to worry about losing it. Easier to breathe through than the disposal ones as well.
