Very breathable
I’m a groomer and I will do whatever it takes to protect my lungs. I love these mask they’re breathable, they don’t hurt my ears after wearing them all day and you can either hand wash or machine wash cold and let them air dry. They dry so quickly it’s ready for the next day. I love them so much I brought 3 more and thinking of buying more the designs are to cute

Still the best combo of comfort and effectiveness
I bought my first Breathe Healthy mask a couple years ago when I moved to a new area and started suffering from allergies during my bike commute. Back then there were not that many reusable masks to choose from—but even after trying out other brands that have appeared since COVID, these continue to be my top choice. The fabric is highly breathable compared to the sleek polyester fashion brands that have popped up. And the adjustable ear loops, nose bar, and generous cut of fabric continue to make this the best fitting mask. It adjusts perfectly to fit to my face, creating a seal around my chin, nose, and cheeks. It might *look* looser or bulkier than some of the sleeker new brands out there, but I have yet to find another brand that actually fits, seals, and still breathes as well as these. Even my fiancée, who has a beard and a much broader face than mine, finds these a more comfortable fit thanks to their broad range of adjustability. The adjustable ear loops may be slightly bulkier than other masks, but (1) that is what makes them so durable in the wash and (2) now that I have to wear them 8 hours a day, their softer edge irritates my ears less than the flatter elastic loops out there. I’ve washed mine dozens of times over the years (in a mesh delicates bag) and they still work and fit like new—whereas another brand I tried already has frayed elastic ear loops just two washes after purchase. The quality of these masks is really well worth the $5 or $10 dollars they cost above your average COVID-era face mask. (I’ve bought 9 or 10 of these now, so apologies if you see this same review on the other styles I’ve purchased—I just really am so pleased with these!)

Very nice product.
I needed something to use when riding my RZR. I am usually second in line, so I get plenty of dust. I have been using a bandana tied cowboy style, but towards the end of the ride, it slips down and I am constantly trying to pull it back up. Depending on where we are, I really need both hands on the wheel. This is the greatest thing for me! It's pretty, it's washable, and it is adjustable. I can even wear my ear buds without it getting in the way. I will most likely purchase another to have as a spare. Great product, great price, and it works. Doesn't get any better.

The mask is great! I live in Austin
The mask is great! I live in Austin, and Cedar Fever is ridiculous! Because of other health concerns, I cannot use antihistamines or decongestants so, I am left with limiting pollen exposure. This mask works very well against Cedar and Ragweed. I gave it a 4/5 due to glasses fogging and difficulty adjusting to heaviness of material. Takes a minute to adjust breathing as, mask is not lightweight. It's attractive and I will purchase more in various colors. Great buy for allergy sufferers!

Excellent for asthma
I have severe asthma due to pollen and mold allergies, and this mask helped me stay out of the hospital this summer. I looked at probably 20 different kinds of masks, reading all the reviews, and I chose this specific pattern because of its excellent feedback rather than appearance. I don't know what might be special about this cloth, but it works. It is not nearly as claustrophobic as many masks are, and it is much more comfortable. I have had a problem with some designs in which the topline of the mask is too firm or rigid and cuts across the sinuses under my eyes, creating a serious build-up of fluid and then sinus infection as a result. This mask does not do that, even when I sleep in it. The beads that adjust the string around the ears can be adjusted so that either the top or bottom string is relatively longer, which moves the place the bead sits beween your ear and your head. This takes care of a problem I read someone else having, which was that the bead was uncomforable when she slept on her side. However, the thickened area where the fabric is gathered, at the side of the mask, can be a bit uncomfortable when side-sleeping. But a bit of padding under your face above that gathered area, between you and the pillow (for example, a soft cloth), takes care of that. And hey! It beats not being able to sleep at all because of having bad asthma that makes it so you can't breathe! Health issues are all about trade-offs, and this mask is worth that bit of adjusting. I have literally put this mask on and had so much relief from symptoms within about 5 minutes that it's like taking a "miracle" medicine. Granted, you have to catch it early on so the allergens don't build up and get you really going, but it's just amazing how well it works once you master the system of catching the allergens quickly. This mask is a real game-changer for serious asthmatics. I am 65 years old and have suffered since very early childhood. All I can say is I wish some doctor, somewhere, had told me about masks -- and that I had found this one -- a long, long time ago.

Best washable mask ever!
I thought this mask wasn't going to be too heavy to breath (I have asthma and bad allergies) but it is easy to breathe through!I love that its adjustable ear loops my left ear is shorter than my right ear! :)This is great for bad allergies when I wear them out people love the design and that it is washable! The other paper masks were to thin and always I toss away because it didn't last long or got ripped.This is also great for grooming dogs too!! Worth buying if you have asthma, severe allergies, or are a pet groomer!

Good quality and fit
I own three. Bought my first one almost 5 yrs ago and wore it throughout flu season. Very effective. Good quality. Adjustable. Comfortable. One of my favorite masks by far.

cute, but not good for pollen.
I am super allergic to pollen. I bought a few of these last year. It gets rather warm in the mask and it did keep out a fair amount of pollen. decently comfy, but rather stuffy. It didn't ever dig into the back of my ear. However for those who are deathly allergic, this will not save you as not matter what you do it won't form completely to your face and leave gaps. Great mask though if your face easily gets cold.
