DoerixNeck Gaiter Face Mask Reusable, Cloth Face Masks Bandana Balaclava Cover Scarf Shield

They did away with masks at work like 6 weeks after I bought this thing. By that time I had grown used to it and just figured... why not. I wore it up until like a month ago. Honestly its pretty good as a windbreaker, and while I wouldn't rely on it alone in colder climates, having a little buffer for wind on a colder day is nice. It also got some of my more conservative friends in a fit, so that was a plus.

Love this item

I purchased this and several other neck-gaiter or handkerchief style masks looking for a good mask for hiking during coronavirus. I have heavier multi-layer fabric masks which fit tight with filter pockets for times when I want to provide myself some inhalation protection from others, but those masks are not appropriate for heavy exertion. So for hiking I just wanted something that would reasonably provide the protection to others from my own exhaled droplets when conditions force us to pass by close together. Several of the masks I ordered could not pass this simple test and were such thin fabric that I really couldn't in good conscious consider them valid masks for the purpose. This one, however, while lightweight and breathable, I felt was heavyweight enough to serve this purpose. It is roughly swimsuit material. When I have it stretched over my eyes, I can see through it, but only just barely. The material is stretchy, but a tight stretch and tightly knitted. You can see how it fits in the pictures.Pros: - The tube of the gaiter is very long, you can see in my pictures that it easily stretches over my entire face/head with fabric to spare. This means it is very versitile, if you wanted to wear it over your entire head so only your eyes would show, there is material to do that and still cover your neck. - I really like the elastic that lets you tighten the gaiter when its up over your nose. This I felt was a must for hiking when you are exerting yourself, possibly with hands busy on a pole or balancing yourself and you don't want to be constantly pulling the mask back up. - It sits loosely around your neck ready for when you need it, so when hiking you can easily just pull it up if someone else comes near - Pattern is pretty and vibrant - Well-made - no loose threads, looks like it will last well - Size - I am overweight and so don't have a tiny neck, but the tube when around my neck is loose and not tight, yet tight enough that it fits snug when I pull up over my faceCons (these are very nitpicky cons, but I list them anyway if it matters to you) - When I tighten the elastic and then pull the gaiter down, the elastic IS tight on my neck. Someone thinner might not have this problem, but it does mean I will have to loosen and tighten it each time I pull it on or off. Not a manufacturing defect, mostly just a factor of my neck size and the stylePotential Improvements - No idea if manufacturers actually look at reviews for ideas, but I would love basically this gaiter with a pocket in front of the mouth area, providing slightly more protection (2 layers instead of one) and the ability to add a filter if desired. There were some that had this feature, but I don't think I could find one that had that and the elastic to secure the gaiter around your face.Overall, I was very happy with the quality and fit and ordered 3 more for the rest of my family.

I wore this outside in temperatures in the mid-eighties today. It was still easy to breathe and was not hot on my face or neck. I could still smell the cut grass as I was weed-eating but it filtered out any flying pollen and kept bugs from biting.

It’s a nice quality that doesn’t irritate. I have super thick hair and need something that I can control the retention around my hairline or my hair pulls it off. The retention strap is sturdy and allows for a firmer hold. Just wish it was cheaper

I bought this for work because we are not aloud to have beards so i needed to cover mine and let me tell you it was worth the little price the fabric used feels soft and stretchy and it was good at deflecting people’s bad breath up close😂

Strange design. Well the material is comfortable and will probably last a very long time, I don’t think I will use this very much because it doesn’t fit well. It has a drawstring and a fastener to hold that in position. For the life of me I cannot figure out why someone would make this design. It’s very loose on the other end so it can be assumed that the drawstring is tightened around the neck below the chin and drapes down lower from there. If it is supposed to be at the bottom than the top material just sags and hangs lower than you would want it to. No matter what—To have a drawstring around your neck feels very strange and it’s not a very safe Design either. God for bid it gets caught or someone grabs it from behind and wants to strangle you. It would be an easy job to do if that’s the intent. I would not recommend this product. Nice fabric though.
