Ideal mask for sporting.

I love this mask because it's durable, breathable, and goes around my head rather than pulling and making my ears sore. The size is great, with enough room to use a turtle shell to keep the mask off my nose.

I really find these masks hard to get on and adjust. I was hoping the behind the head strap design would make the mask stay in place better for active times. But the reality is that I find the adjustment so tedious that the mask never seems to fit well.

Excellent Mask

I am a physician by trade and wear masks for 12+ hr a day. I was getting ulcerations behind my ears from the typical ear loop masks so i switched to this mask which i love. Soft, comfortable, and can be tied snug or loose. Initially i wasnt crazy about the elastic strap on top but i find it is nice to easily remove and replace the mask while leaving the bottom tied around my neck. Made in USA was a big plus for me as almost all paper ear loop masks are made in China.

Simple & Effective

I have four of these that are currently rotating as my ski-masks. My local resort here in Utah has intelligently made masks mandatory and these loop over the back of the head and tie behind the neck, which works much better with my helmet, goggles, and beard, than the behind-the-ear style of loops. The material is more breathable than some but is thick enough that I am not concerned about using it without a filter in high-output situations. If I was grocery shopping then I would use one of the filters they came with. They have held up with no major signs of wear to about a dozen washings so far.

Functional face mask
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
OK...let's face it--all face masks are a drag. But in the current environment they are a necessity and often mandated. So ya' gotta have 'em. Most face masks work by attaching around the ears. This winds up giving you a headache after a good bit of time, plus those with hearing aids can't use them (my wife, specifically). This face mask works with an elastic that goes over the head and then a tie behind the neck. Much more comfortable. Our ski mountain's base is at 9200 ft. and goes up to over 12,400. So the removable filter was too much blockage for adequate O2 intake. The face mask by itself is adequate. No face mask seems to work with sunglasses and this one is no exception. With goggles, you seal the top edge of the mask under the bottom edge of the goggle and you're good while you're moving. On the chair (by yourself or with one other on a quad), you can lower the mask to be sure you don't generate fog. Ya' gotta fiddle with this stuff, but that's life in the pandemic age. It works, basically. Definitely a worthwhile and comfortable mask that will deliver what you need.

Over helmet, doubles as goggle guard

I didn't like the design when I first bought it over the summer. I prefer using a mask that hooks to the ears when just doing everyday activities. When snowboard season approached, I put this over my helmet, with the top elastic strap and the tied the bottom strap attached to the google strap clip in the back. It not only provides a secure fit, but when I'm done riding, the mask covers my goggles, acting like a scratch guard. I breathe pretty hard during a run so usually have it under my chin while riding, and then just pull it up when I get to the lift line. I carry a "normal" paper mask for when I take my helmet off.

Great Mask!

I love the close and secure fit of this mask. The internal nose bridge makes it easy to adjust to your specific face/nose shape, the filter sleeve is a key safety feature to add in your own filter, or at least have a double layer mask as most ski resort are requiring - this a great fit over a beanie or under a helmet if you chose to take to this to the mountain. Love the cropped goat logo detail on the side as well - I get a lot of compliments on this mask since it is a stand out amongst the others!

Nice Mask

I chose the huckleberry OSFM due to the straps. The ear straps on most mask hurt me after some time wearing them. This mask fits well and the straps are not too tight. My one issue is the fabric does tend to cling a bit when breathing but as I use this to run errands or walk the dog it is not an issue.

Have you ever wanted to hike a 15 mile trail in the middle of a pandemic and gotten to the trail head to discover it's really crowded? Did you want to stay safe while hiking? Boy do we have the mask for you! One strap is fixed so it sits nicely around your head while the other ties to keep it in place. No worries about passing by another hiker closely and catching the Vid-19. This will help keep your worries at bay and it won't make you feel like your suffocating.

What exactly is different between the one size and the large? Is it just the length of the elastic and ties, or is is the size of the actual mask fabric in the front, too? Thanks!
August 22, 2020
Is the fabric slightly stiff? I'm looking for a mask where I won't suck in fabric when I'm huffing and puffing on the trail.

Does Backcountry sell replacement filters? How often should the filters be replaced?
August 9, 2020
Could you include the approximate dimensions of your mask on your website? Not interested in buying something I can't return without knowing how large it is or trying one on.

I?m not sure if this would work for my Afro textured hair. What is the elastic around the head like? Is it fabric covered elastic or just elastic?
July 26, 2020
Does this have 2 elastic straps or one and a tie? The pictures aren't clear. It says tie, some of the new photos show that but others show all elastic. Thanks!
