Vogmask Premier Filtering Mask Head Strap Accessory

Its no secret VogMasks are highly rated fabric masks and us chemo patients have been wearing them for years, they were sold at our Mayo Clinic Pre-CoVid and so grateful Amazon carries them often. It’s also no secret that you get what you pay for and worth the investment for a mask that’s effective up to 3 years. With all that being said a protective mask is only as good as it’s sealed fit. They do a great job offering a multitude of sizes but for someone like me that’s on the borderline of Med+ and Large (I’m a 5’7” female, 155lbs), going with the Large size offers the highest comfort and doesn’t cause the irritated mask lines on my face at the end of the day. Combined with this strap, I get a highly comfortable fit while getting a perfect seal around the edges. It’s not rocket science and the straps are easy to use. My only suggestion is to get everything situated and adjusted on your face exactly the way you want it and then unsnap only one ear to remove the mask each time. This way you only have to put it on and snap one side instead of having to redo the whole fitting process. It also cuts down on touching the top of the mask when removing, as suggested by CDC. All I have is my personal experience and so far this combo has kept me safe through years of cancer treatments that knock out my immune system - even through a ramped pandemic going on in my city (Phoenix area). I wouldn’t dream of doing life‘s tasks like grocery shopping, filling up the gas tank, or dr apts without it. My husband is an “essential” warehouse worker and with him wearing his mask we’ve been able to be spared the worst of it so far (X-Lg size: he’s 6’, large frame, 210lbs). It’s also worth reading the filter’s tech specs and efficiency lab tests on VogMask’s website. All are dependent on proper fit. Again, it’s that important and only $8 a 4-pack. As to some reporting snaps were missing etc., always make sure the seller is VogMask and not an unknown third party. They can also be returned for free on Amazon if there is a freak defect like that.

Having a mask when I need one, or not having it fall off the one ear upon which I have left if hanging was really inconvenient. Now I put my mask on in the morning, usually sitting comfortably around my neck and when someone comes to the door, or I go somewhere In the car I don't have that suddenly startled "oh no, I don't have a mask with me" feeling. I have it right there with me and I put it on. This mask holder is soft , comfortable, and the snaps are easy to use. It's also good for masks that are a little loose as it can be tightened and loosened easily. We've had these since July with no show of wear. I'm sorry to see that this item is no longer available.... I was about to buy several as stocking stuffers for friends and family how seem to have as much difficulty keeping track of their masks as I previously did.

the snap closure for the ear loops is a nice touch, and the overall stretch nature of the strap is great. what would make it a 5 star is if they used a button tension clasp instead of a friction button clasp to keep it tight around the head. also the price, these should be included with new vogmasks.

I LOVE this little strap! It's a definite upgrade for my Vogmask or nearly any mask. It takes the pressure off of your ears and snugs the mask against your face. You can take your mask off in the car quickly and easily one-handed, letting it dangle around your neck. The little ball is easy to adjust and readjust behind your head. If you have a Vogmask or a mask with short, thick straps, you are familiar with the way they pull on your ears. This little strap is the solution to that problem. I've come back to buy more three times now because everyone in our family seems to steal everyone else's. All of mine seem to be good quality.

The stitches are coming out after a couple weeks of infrequent wear in 6 different places. Otherwise, it works to keep the mask in place and is comfortable. I contacted Vogmask and they offered a replacement right away. BTW the masks are the best I’ve tried for breathability and fit. I recommend both products!

I purchased this for my husband because the ear loops on his mask pushed his ears forward. This strap pulled the ear loops away from his ears and made his mask more comfortable . It looks like his mask will have a tighter seal on his face too.

Wasn't that comfortable. Didn't like wearing it. The ear pieces on the regular vogmask feels better fitting without using this. Overall, this made it less comfortable. The stitching came apart in the first 2 days of use. Returned.

I bought a few masks because I was unsure of the sizing. Using this strap helps keep all of masks in place, even though some are slightly too small and some are slightly too big. Can be used with other masks, not just vogmask. I bought one for my daughter too.
