Fruit of the Loom Reusable Cotton Face Mask - 50 Count Multipacks

I don't post many reviews, but these masks are awesome!We purchased 150 of these to give to guests for our upcoming wedding (that has since been postponed to 2021.)When we purchased them there weren't many reviews, but we decided to purchase them anyway because they were shipped and sold by Amazon, and they were a great value! (Less than a $1 for a reusable, washable mask!)We didn't need all 150 for our wedding, so when they arrived we decided to try them out. Let me tell you, these are some of the BEST masks and now they are our everyday masks!I love a lot about these masks, but my favorite things are:- The type of elastic they use (it is strong and keeps the mask in a secure, but it is woven in a way that doesn't hurt your ears.)- The elastic trim on the actual mask is genius because it helps keep a tight fit to the face, and really helps keep it snug in my nose bridge, preventing most constant fogging of my glasses (I can go extended periods of time without fogging!)- The fabric is very soft and breathable, but still has great protection/filtering because it is 3 layers of tight-knit cotton.I also find it quite humorous that they are made by Fruit of the Loom, and that all of the components are probably also used to make underwear... My fiance and I joke and call them our "Tighty Whitey" masks. 😂Pro-Tip: I have a larger face, and I've noticed that some of them seem a tad smaller than others. A great thing is that you can actually stretch these masks a bit if you find one that is a bit small because the material is like t-shirt cottonOverall 10/10, I've already recommended (and have given them) to friends and family, who have also fallen in love with these masks too.My only suggestion to Amazon is to maybe stock smaller quantity packs so they more accessable to people who don't want to purchase in bulk to try them.ALSO, I noticed that on the Fruit of the Loom website that they also are manufacturing them in black... Maybe Amazon can stock some black ones too? 😉😉😉

Soft. Comfortable. Breathable. Elastic not too tight. I've finally found a mask I can tolerate! They are not really large, but my husband who has a large head and broad face finds that they fit him just fine. They fit me just fine. My elderly (94 yoa) mother who has a thin face just ties a knot in the elastic to shorten the side ties and then they fit her just fine as well. Because they are soft they conform to my face better and while my glasses still fog up a bit it is not nearly as bad as it was with other masks. The soft knit fabric also feels better in our hot (95+ degrees) and super humid (95% or more!) weather. They wash REALLY well, no reason to have a dirty mask with these around!They might not be perfect, but they are the closest thing to a perfect mask for me that I've found! I bought two more boxes of them after this one was delivered so I won't run out and all my family and friends can have them as well. I keep a couple in all my purses, in my car, I even keep one in my wallet for emergencies!! (Fold them up and stash them in a snack size zip lock bag. If you press out all the air you can make the package really small!)

Edit: 8 months in and these masks are still going. I absolutely have masks that I like better because the elastic straps practically pull my ears off, but my family likes them a lot. I also have to say the sealed 5 packs may be my favorite feature. My sons each have masks they love more, but a 5 pack of these for emergencies. I keep a 5 pack in my vehicle’s glove compartment and typically have a few used ones in the center console. I will say that I am surprised how well these have held up. I expected the elastic to fatigue and the mask stitching to fray...no sign of any deterioration. These are very well made. If they have a downside, it is there proclivity to show dirt. Of course that’s not a bad thing because you know it is time to wash. I don’t know when all this will end, and buying 50 masks at a time seems like a lot, but I am so glad I purchased these...whether they are used as a spare, the emergency mask you pull out when you have misplaced, messed up or forgotten your main mask, or just an insurance that you won’t run out of masks, these have been worth every penny.In general, as masks go, these are pretty good. They are soft, generally comfortable, and the stitching is well doneMy whole family keeps these in cars in case they forget masks or need masks. For me, they are a little small which results in feeing like my ears are going to be pulled off, but my head is extremely large - one size fits all hats - never fit. So I have gotten used to bandanas, hats, gaiters not fitting. If you are like me and have a large head, I highly recommend checking these gaiters out as they are the largest I have found an extremely comfortable (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B086S9P627/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_awdb_t1_wWvkFbV4RFEBB).One plus for these is they launder extremely well. We do wash them In a mesh bag (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B012XTOB00/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_awdb_t1_BZvkFbSXF6JFF) which seems to keep the elastic from getting stretched out, and then we dry them on gentle or hang dry as time allows. These are the masks my sons will take to college and we every day and them send them home to be washed. I have kept one thing from them about these masks - they are made by fruit of the loom. Why, because I can’t help Be reminded of the similarities between these masks and briefs (aka tighty whities). Feeling like I am wearing underwear on my face would make these a no go...but as they say ignorance is bliss and my family loves them.
