The design of this mask is comfortable to wear. On an average temperature (SA day) you can breath in it which is a bonus. I did however were this one for the first time on a 37 degree day and it was really hot inside it and that made it quite hard to breathe. In general it does “suck’ on to your face a bit when your breathe which was a little uncomfortable. I would love this design in the the other style of mask. Hint, hint The reason I wanted to try cloth masks was that the disposable types were helping my skin to seriously break out, With these mask so far so good. They are lovely and soft. I will even with all said, certainly consider this mask the next time I buy.
