mask this

[testcase]

I still mask up and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. :oldfogey:

I'm w/ Rammie, using pale blue medical mask w/ multi-layer cloth mask covering.

While I have a statistically large nose, it is nicely proportional to my massively sized head. IOW, I can't find a ready made mask that fits, so I've had to wing it throughout the pandemic. Props to anyone that provides info on a viable XXXL, comfy mask w/ decent specs. Thanks.

Speaking of specs, and wearing specs (eyeglasses) w/ masks, I found out that anti-fog coating for your lenses actually works. New specs clear any fogging almost instantly. Who knew that stuff was a real thing? Only took a worldwide pandemic to figure that out! Old glasses start fogging, and get worse w/ each ensuing breath until I take them off. I'm hoping this will be the last pandemic for at least another 100 years, and that the next one is more adequately handled than this one has been.

MASKERS UNITE!

Curious which antifog coating you're using. I find that here in humid NOLA, it's virtually impossible to go outside without getting significant fogging, and it's made worse by the mask ... even the Aura types allow some fogging to occur. (I do have a pretty wide face btw, and find the Aura fits incredibly well.)

It's from Essilor, but now that I look at their website, I'm not sure which one of their offerings I've got.
Now please, somebody find me a giant size mask.

Got to find some good, comfy, soft cloth masks to go under some surgical masks. Recs?

Interesting. I'd gotten an antifog coating on my last set of progressives, and it was worth... absolutely nothing.

For XL N95's, have a look here:

... one of these might suit you.

I do wish, though, as a man with a somewhat pronounced schnoz, I could find a mask that fit better. The metal bar helps a bit but the mask always rides too high on my cheeks because of it.
