I'm in Toronto & air quality isn't that bad. That's why I suggested it. Sorry about that.

No it was a good post and with good intention

These fashion brands really aren't qualified to make masks. I feel they are more fashion than protective...

So bacteria is much larger than viruses.

Anything that is mostly ultra breathable / aka sports wear materials are most likely too large to filter viruses.

True since the sport brands like adidas or reeboks are just fabric mask. This Uniqlo is different. 3 layers plus filtration.

You're gifting masks to retail workers? That's weird, dude.

There’s a higher degree of clinginess to some brands that has caused this stuff to be in high demand. Other than that, yes, you’re correct - this is yet another non-medical grade cloth mask amongst a million variants, likely all of which are made by just a handful of Chinese manufacturers.

Nothing wrong with people liking this one more than others.

still nothing yet. Uniqlo USA is available for the same price $14.90 USD

The only masks I know made in Canada are the Tilley ones. But not the ones from Costco. Those are made in China. If you buy direct from Tilley’s website, they claim to be made at their factory Don Mills

I am using the PKG masks, they are a Canadian company in Stouffvile but the masks are made in China. The reason why I like them is that they are three layers. You can also insert a PM2.5 filter inside for additional protection. The Tilley ones sold at Costco are also triple layers, but the outer layer is only 80 gsm (grams per square metre) cotton. The PKG one is 120 gsm

The best masks are the disposable ones. But they get expensive really quickly. I think the cloth masks with the PM2.5 is the best alternative. They say you can test how good a mask is by trying to blow out a candle. If you can blow it out, then you need to find a better mask

Yeah, I'll get masks from Canada after seeing that video of workers stepping on masks just to screw with them. I'm good.

I lived near the Tilleys, use to park his cars next to my place to walk his Dogs,

There's no add to cart button . Is it available to buy online yet?

I like how on official uniqlo site, states. This is a non medical grade mask. And does not prevent the transmission of diseases. Made out of originally underwear materials from uniqlo, what use is this mask if it doesn't protect yourself or others?

I have always been very skeptical with fashion companies in general entering mask markets.

I wish they did more studies especially when it comes to protective material that are labelled as breathable. Some materials actually make it even more worse for transmission.

Materials needs to be high thread count and tightly woven.

Majority of mask sellers state the same to let consumers know these are not medical masks. They state this so they will not get sued if the wearer gets covid.

It is far better than no mask and a mask hat you can use to anywhere tgat requires a face covering.

I am curious why so many downvotes
Is it because the quality of the masks or is it because politics again?

U mean the clips from India?
And how would u know the one from Canada doesnt do that? Did they mention ‘we dont step on masks’ on their description?
