Secure Fit and Great Comfort

Wearing a mask should be a comfortable and easy experience with no need for readjustment or reattachment. For this reason, the kids' face mask has elastic and adjustable head straps. As a result, the mask will stay in place, even during physical activity.

Long term wear of a face mask with ear straps can result in pain and discomfort in the ear region. Thereby negatively affect the mask experience. The head straps are crossed in front of the ear, thus avoiding pressure on or behind the ears. When putting on the mask, the bottom strap sits on the top of the head, while the top strap goes to the head's back. It should sit tight underneath the chin and over the nose and cheeks to obtain a secure and comfortable fit. Due to the light and soft material, the mask provides excellent comfort and breathability.

At first time use: Firstly, place the filter inside the pocket of the face mask. Secondly, place the mask over the mouth and nose and put the straps over the head. Place the straps, so they cross in front of the ears. Thirdly, adjust the straps until the mask feels comfortable and secure. At this time, no further adjustments should be needed.

The kids mask fit kids roughly between the age of 6-12 years. However, it also depends on the head size. Therefore, before purchasing, please consult our size chart. The adult masks in size S will, in most cases, also fit kids from middle school and up.

Production and Materials

We keep our production local. Also, all materials come from within Europe. This way, we have more control over the manufacturing process as well as the quality. As a result, we can ensure that our products maintain a high quality and that the production takes place under reasonable conditions and fair wages.

Design, production, and distribution

The masks are designed and produced by a local tailor shop situated in Elsinore, north of Copenhagen, Denmark's capital. They are hand made by two professional tailors, Olena and Yulia, under the name YYforYou. Also, all masks and accessories distribute from within the same city.

Keeping design, production, and distribution close to each other gives excellent flexibility in design optimization, special requests, quality improvements, and the like.

Materials

The masks have an outer and inner layer of 100% cotton, embraced by a soft elastic band creating a changeable filter pocket. All materials are OEKO-TEX standard 100 certified. This means that every component goes through tests for harmful substances. The article, therefore, is harmless for human health.

The included filter is a three-layered 100% polypropylene material, called spunbond, and is also OEKO-TEX standard 100 certified. Moreover, spunbond is being used for many medical equipment types, such as gowns, covers, and masks. Place the filter inside the pocket of the face mask to obtain a good filtration.

Wash and Reuse

Both masks and filters are washable and reusable. To remove germs and bacteria, wash the mask, and filter in a washing machine with hot water (above 130 F or 60 C). Moreover, the detergent helps dissolve and remove unwanted particles, such as viruses. Hang dry and iron the mask to retain size and softness, if needed. If short on time, an alternative to a wash is to steam press the mask with an iron at high temperature. Please do not iron the filter as it will melt.

When not in use, keep the mask in the included plastic bag and wash it at the end of the day. Let dry throughout the night and use it again the next day. Save laundry by having 2-3 masks per person. In that case, wash every two to three days and wash the masks with other textiles requiring a hot water wash. Also, wash with similar colors.

We think of Environment

We keep our production small and local, thereby avoiding big industries with lots of waste. Most of our masks are produced from cotton pieces that are too small for anything else. As a result, we have less waste, and many of the masks are unique, as we only produce a few pieces of each.

We have chosen 100% recycled materials for our badges on the plastic bags and the user manual. Thereby we are trying our best to save the environment from the unnecessary use of natural resources. Likewise, the plastic bag itself and the packaging will soon follow.

With a washable and reusable face mask, you save the environment for a lot of waste. Disposable face masks are made from single-use plastic, which adds to a wider environmental issue. Moreover, the public does not have the capability to dispose of surgical masks properly, which risks both unnecessary contamination and the chance for masks to cause an adverse effect on the environment.

In addition, with a reusable face mask, you save money, choose a more comfortable and sustainable product for you and your family, and you do not have to worry about disposing of them or unnecessary contamination.
