The Knitwear Lab 3D Knit Reusable Mask with Filter Pocket and 8 Replaceable Filters Navy

I work 8 to ten hrs shifts in retail. I also interact with the public using social distance. I must say this is the most comfortable mask I own. It's a pleasure to wear this mask at work. I use the filters and change it every other day. It's definitely worth the money. It raps a round my face snug and grips my chin. Nose grip is removable, and comes with an extra, for the just incase bonus!!! Definitely buying more. 0nly problem I am having is where do you buy more filters?? 🤔 I do not see them on Amazon.

Super soft and breathable. It has a nose wire that fits snugly around the nose and cheeks but is very comfortable. Love the ability it use filter with it as well. I’m please with this product.

I do like this mask, it is very comfortable to wear and the nose "clip" does a good job of preventing my glasses from fogging. The filters can be fiddly/tricky to install and once in, I found, tend to restrict airflow making it tougher to breathe. I suggest only using the filters -it came with a pack of seven- when you know you are going into a "high risk" situation. No claim of medical expertise this is simply my impression/thought process.Another plus is the adjustable ear-loops, a tight plastic nub allows for the elastic to be pulled through to tighten or slacken the loops. One has to pull fairly hard so its unlikely the loops will self-adjust. Originally I was going to award only three stars but really the only negative is the filter issue and considering the double layer/pocket for the filter will probably suffice in most day to day circumstances... I am no medical expert so take my comments for what they are worth.No matter the circumstances wearing a mask in public places, enclosed or otherwise, is a positive Darwinian choice for you and those around you.

I am reviewing a product that I received at no cost through the Amazon Vine program.In short:Pro: - comfortable for indoor settings - a coffee filter could probably be used when the included filters run outCon: - easily collects sweat - filters make exercise difficult - not sure if these are more effective without filters than cloth masks - nowhere (as of July 27th) to order more filtersThe concept of a 3D-knitted mask is intriguing, and while I was at first apprehensive about using a knit mask, the ability to insert filters seemed sufficient to order them for a try.The mask is similar in color to the picture and arrived in minimal packaging with 8 filters and an extra metal bar to fit to the nose. There were minimal instructions for folding the filters and none for washing (it's cold hand wash, flat dry).The material is soft and feels stretchy. Pulling hard sounds like ripping but could just be stretching. Judging on the "light test" by seeing how much light passes through, I'm not convinced that the mask on its own is sufficient without a filter in the pocket. I'm aware it's not supposed to be small enough to block a virus particle, but rather to block exhaled moisture on which the virus travels.So I've tested the mask with filters. The filters are more dense than coffee filters, and as far as I can tell are meant to be folded in half then unfolded within the filter pocket. Leaving them folded in half makes singing difficult - I wore one in church and felt out of breath while singing. This is less noticeable when the filter is unfolded within the pocket.I also wore the mask while cycling in a somewhat crowded park. It was impossible with the filter. I ordinarily ride 6 to 8 miles at 11 mph, and my heart rate is 120-130. With the filter in-place, I felt out of breath, my heart rate was closer to 160 and it just didn't feel safe. I finished the ride without the filter in-place but the mask was soaked with sweat and just uncomfortable. I wouldn't think to use a knitted mask for exercise again.The filters are another issue - I cannot find where to order more. Not on Amazon, not on Knitwear Lab's site. Shame, coffee filters would probably do the trick, although the Knitwear's website says the mask or filters are zinc-treated for antimicrobial protection.Three stars for a comfortable mask for the office or indoor shopping, but would have gotten more if there was a place to purchase filters.

Added to this fear-filled era of the Coronavirus finding a quality face mask in a timely manner has added to this stressful time.I have tried many masks and have a hard time breathing in most of them and find them very uncomfortable.Unlike the others, this Knitwear lab 3D is both comfortable and I can breath while using it. Moreover, it comes with 8 replaceable filters and is washable.I also like the fact that it has adjustable ear straps.Likewise, I am happy that this product is made in America.While we have to trust that masks will protect us from this deadly virus, I am not sure how much or how to evaluate the safety of one mask over the other. That said, I do feel more comfortable with this particular mask.Accordingly, I recommend it to family, friends, and others who do not wear masks because of where they were made, how hard it is to breath with them, how uncomfortable they are, or how poorly they seem to be made.This does feel like a quality mask that people will wear.Enjoy!
