Customer Reviews Outdoor Research Essential Face Mask Kit

This is a great mask. I use it daily and switched primarily to using this style mask.

Great mask and very comfortable. Metal nose bridge keeps it's shape very well. The fabric is double layered and still breathable.

Worth every $ I paid for it. Well made

Comfortable, lightweight & adjustable.

After experimenting with various face masks and gaiters, I prefer the Outdoor Research essential mask as the best of all the face masks I tried. I prefer it for casual activities; e.g., shopping, walking my dog in the neighborhood. The material is great, the adjustable bands allow for custom fit, and overall superior construction. As a facial covering, OR made a product I can count on. For my primary outdoor activities (trail building and maintenance, crosscut clearing), I switch to a gaiter (Phunksun Wear) as my preferred facial wear. Allows for me to more easily adjust from close contact social distancing wear to pulling down under my chin until I need it again. This is not possible with the essential mask. I strongly recommend the OR essential face mask.

Very easy to use.

used for visiting customers. Great mask, very comfortable and does not fog glasses as much as disposable or others.

Wear a mask-- it protects you and your community. This is well-fitting, well-made mask. Get one.

Fits well--wire a bridge of nose.

Great mask. Fits great. Big enough to accommodate talking. Filters are a unique feature. Adjustability is excellent. Washed very nicely.

Have made masks, and purchased several different brands. This is the one I wear for long periods and need to be able to talk comfortably. The adjustable ear loops are key and it was well worth my time to get them set for a good functional fit. I have not worn it with the filter yet so I can't speak to that.

It's well made & comfortable. Of course it is...it's OG! Pretty easy to breathe. No complaints here!

I love this mask. It fits perfectly. It doesn't fog my glasses. The ear loops are fantastic. Easy to use and clean.

Wear it at work 5 days a week 8 hours a day. Best fit and easy on the ears. I bought 4 of them.

Don't let the lack of leadership in our country lull you into thinking we don't need masks. These are nice fitting, easy to breath while on and let's one go about their business safely. Wish there were more colors

The fit is great.

Best fitting mask I have tried yet. They're are more breathable than other masks too

I have tried a lot of different masks. Even ones with valves so my glasses won't fog up. This one is hands down the best! I wore this on a construction site for 4 hours straight with no issues at all. The wire conforms to my nose to make a tight seal and the adjustable ear loops make it very comfortable. My only wish is that there was a smaller one for my 7 and 9 year old girls. It's just too big for them.

Very nice quality

Very comfortable for extended periods of time. I have to wear masks the entire time I'm at work so this mask gets used for 8 hours at a time. I've tested a ton of different masks and this is by far the most comfortable mask to wear. Seriously, it is significantly better than every other option I've tried.

Love it, perfect for our current situation. I can wash it and replace filters.

My favorite face mask. I also have a Tom Bihn V1... both these masks are excellent, but I love that this one has adjustable ear straps and a filter slot. Thank you! And stay healthy!

Love this mask. Nice material and most breathable mask I have. Purchased a total of 4.

Love the adjustable ear strings.

Great product and highly recommend to others. It is comfortable, feels good, is adjustable, and is well made.
