BASE CAMP Reusable Cloth Dust Face Masks 100% Cotton Washable Adjustable Breathable Fabric Mask with Filter Pocket
Q**8
Great fit for large and small faces alike
Thanks, previous reviewers! I'm so glad I took your advice and chose these.Many cloth masks are either too small for big faces or too small for small ones, but these use an expandable design similar to some hospital disposable masks that adapts very well to different face sizes so that if you adjust the ear loops you can get a snug fit regardless of the size or shape of your face.Also, they are very comfortable. We're very happy with them. We also liked that they come in a handy zip-lock storage bag and include three extra ear loop adjusters.We've identified only two negatives so far, one very minor, and one regarding delivery rather than the product itself:* The instructions specify to hand wash the masks rather than zip them in a delicate-washables mesh bag and run in the washer with other delicate items on the delicate cycle. This is a very minor inconvenience yet odd requirement.* The masks came with the address label stuck to the zip-lock bag containing the item, i.e., the product packaging. No shipping envelope was used. This means that a product meant as a barrier against germs came in product packaging loaded with germs, having been handled by all in the supply chain and then laid on the cement in front of the door. (Also, the product envelope was sticky after the label was removed and thus attracts more germs...disgusting!) I'm immune compromised, so sanitary measures are crucial for me. Although I appreciate environmental efforts to reduce plastic/paper shipping material for non-hygiene-related products, this is probably the #1 item I'd think would be required to ship in an outer envelope; I find it very odd that it isn't. I thus called Amazon and asked for a replacement to be shipped properly, and explained why I was asking. I received the replacement in a shipping envelope. However, although I was assured that I could dispose of the first item rather than returning it and would not be charged for the replacement (and it appears that I was not charged for it, per the current order details), I received return instructions via email and via the updated order details for the original.

High quality of face mask
I am a bit surprised that there were no review on this product at all. I have ordered it from Australia and I love the quality of it!!! I've bought other face masks with the same shape but they were either too thick or not comfortable to wear. This one is easily breathable, adjustable and light, yet firm enough to be not moving when wearing it. Anti fog mask so recommended for those who wear glasses. Thumbs up!

No more foggy glasses!
The first thing that I noticed was that I made a 90 minutes walk without having any problems with foggy glasses! And that is a very big thing for me. Also the mask fitted perfectly.I do recommend this mask!

Almost perfect. Small nose wire
I really like these base camp masks. The material is high quality, it has a snug fit over my chin I can actually yawn in them without having them fall off my face! The ear loops too are very comfortable. However there are a few things I don’t like about it.Firstly, the nose wire is way too short, it takes a while before I find a good seal. Second, it’s only available in one size; I appreciate the one size fits all approach but I would really like to see an extra large option that is both longer and wider especially given that most buyers, I imagine, are buying these in the first place because they are dissatisfied with the small fit of regular masks.I notice that, while it does fit me pretty well, when I talk it sometimes moves imperceptibly down my nose which messes up the seal and I get air blasted into my eyeballs - twisting the ear loops has helped to prevent this somewhat but that shouldn’t have to happen. I’ve used the masks surgeons wear in operating theatre (the proper ones, not those trashy “surgical masks” you see on the store shelves) and those are SIGNIFICANTLY better in this regard. While BASE CAMP masks are the best consumer masks I’ve used, their high price makes me disappointed that they aren’t as good as proper surgical masks in terms of fit. A wider nose wire and a larger size would fix this problem.

Good fit
These are actually really comfortable and fit well. If you want an extra tight seal I would probably still use official KN95s, but I just wanted a layer of protection to wear in the crowded bus during my commute and I feel that these do the job well! I haven’t tried inserting another filter layer but it’s nice to have the option.
