I'd like to try them to see if the top flap style keeps my glasses from fogging up.
A lot of the cheapo procedure-style masks have wimpy nose wires that won't keep their shape and seal around the nose. With those, it's hard to tell what you're going to get. I tried some KN-95s and their ear loops were so tight they pulled the nose wires straight and I had the same problem--plus they make my ears stick straight out. 
They look very similar to
KF94 masks.

I've been very pleased with KF94s.
They are shaped to provide a gap around the mouth so they feel less oppressive and the nose-wire holds its shape very well.
KN95s hurt my nose from pressing down on the bridge all day. KF94s do not.
If I pinch the top and pull it just above the bridge of my nose, my glasses rest on the edge of the mask and they do not fog.
The sides and bottom seem shaped to wrap around my face tighter, wider, and more comfortably than N95 and KN95 masks. I'm less concerned about leakage around my beard with the flaps shaped this way.
...I wear a silicone extender because the ear-loops on all of these are sized for small faces and for people who don't wear glasses. Other masks can slip down a bit and require frequent adjustment with an extender because it sits below the ears and puts a subtle downward pressure on the mask. The KF94 masks shape themselves to my face and do not slip.
