Review on Neck Gaiter Face Mask Protection Outdoor Recreation in Outdoor Clothing by Jordan Doyle

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Unfinished Business

I bought this mask to have a breathable mask when cycling in warm weather that I can easily slip over my mouth and nose in busy or crowded places and put it on on open roads. It might have worked if they hadn't compromised too much on manufacturing and design. Because the top and bottom are plain stitched and don't have a finished hem, it doesn't have enough support to stay in place, the edges curl and it's just a hook to unravel. I can try applying a layer of silicone or latex glue to increase grip, or sewing on a piece of elastic to hold it in shape - simple solutions that should be built into the product from the start. Besides, you don't always need more. it is better if there are 2 reflective strips. One in the back is a good idea. The other one running down the middle of your face is uncomfortable. It is best to place them on either side of the neck. The PROS seems to be fairly breathable, although I haven't had a chance to wear them in temperatures above the mid 60's. CONS does not stay in place. Poorly finished edges curl and can unravel. Stripes at the back if you don't want another piece of reflective tape running down the middle of your face
