Easy to put on. I don’t feel claustrophobic and it doesn’t pull on my ears.
Rt. Rev. Dr. Ed L.
Love them.
Spacy and colorfully.
Jewel W.
I was very pleased with the design and the comfort of the mask since they didn't press against the nose making them easy to breathe through.
Jack C.
I love these masks because they are so unique and support a great cause. I love that they don't hug your face in an uncomfortable way and are very comfortable and start many great conversations. Thank you for all you do. ❤
Cecilia M.
It doesn’t cover nearly as much of my face as it should, and I have a small face. I can’t use them at all.
Rebecca D.
Like not having straps around ears
Much easier to breathe
Almost no fogging of glasses
Would enjoy different colors
Would like it better if straps tied rather than velcro
Would like to be able to throw in washing machine and dryer
But the wishes are minor compared to the wonderful benefits

This is the best mask for me. I am getting a little bit hard of hearing, so an over ear mask impinges my hearing too much. At the same time, I need to be able to unhook the head strap a bit in order to manage other garments and devices on my head, so I have a whole older with the backpack buddha mask. The quality has improved since the first ones produced, the stiffening wire on the nose is better and lately, the straps have been a bit wider which means more velcro. I wouldn't mind if it came in solid colors but for now, this is my favorite mask.
Connie H.
I could use a bit more in the chin area.
The ER nurse said this was the best mask they had seen. They are beautiful.
Anne K.
As advertised, stays nicely away from my face. There is plenty of room to insert an additional mask inside if desired. Appears to be very well made. Love the Velcro straps since the elastic loop types annoy me greatly. I highly recommend this mask and its support of artisans
Kelly S.
Only complaint is one arrived and a strap was broken.
Christopher N.
I ordered these especially for the claim of "no fog" and found them very clumsy to put on and they still fogged my glasses. After placing the order I was able to buy 2 more for a discount so I did. The ones that were discounted were actually this model in the picture and I LOVE it! Doesn't fog and has a smaller upper and lower flap that is less cumbersome to put on.
lucy t.
My husband finds the Velcro too hard to deal with. I love the mask. It stays off my face so I’m not breathing it in all the time.
Rosemary M.
I wear glasses and I’m required to double mask. This mask has saved my ears!
Michelle K.
Feel very safe wearing them.
Barbara R.
Nice fit and looks good. Straps are a bit long for me but I have a very small head.
Christopher J.
I can't count how many times I've been told that "I like your face-mask" - and even "I have to say, again, how much I like your face-mask" (the last comment from a clerk in my local grocery store). I recommend your masks, and refer people to your website, as often as I get those comments - and always add that my purchase (and theirs will also) benefits a womens' collective - besides protecting myself and others from COVID-19 infection.
Misti S.
Other than getting used to the velco, which took some time, they are great!
Aviva B.
I found it a little cumbersome to manage and get the two straps in the right place
Lance C.
i replaced the straps with elastic over the ears, the straps were too fiddily for me. But it is the best fitting mask I have ever worn. Fits snugly top and bottom, but the woven middle stays away from my mouth and nose, making it easy to breath and talk. Very comfortable, feels very secure and effective. Great design, beautiful. I get many compliments on it. thank you
Marc K.
Comfortable and well-designed masks
wearing for hours at a time not a problem.
There's room inside to add an extra layer of something if
one feels the need.
Overall, a great product
Ruth S.
I love and your great work- terrific mask- thank you for r all u do!
Robert T.
the straps are awkward and it's really difficult to put on, finally gave up, hoping to make some modifications
Adan R.
I got one for my girlfriend and one for myself. We love them.
Donald M.
Fits great, seals well. I double mask so it easily covers the first mask. Plus nothing over your ears just velcro straps for head and neck to hold in place. Great for hearing aids and glasses users. I have both. I sent some to my kids and they love it too. Both wear glasses.
Gwen H.
It’s a little awkward to get on at first, but is what I will wear in a crowded situation. The quality is very good and colorful finish.
Sheilah P.
I really like the fact that the straps have Velcro and are adjustable. However, the top panel folds in half inside the mask. It doesn’t quite fit like I thought it would
Neil S.
Does not fit. Feels as though it was made for a child.
Marcia M.
It's beautiful, comfortable, and better than other masks at not fogging my glasses.
Eric F.
Way too small for me, but a nice idea
Pat M.
I like the head straps. They do not interfere with my hearing aids. I would like to be able to order more with different patterns.
Melanie W.
Very comfortable for hearing aids and have gotten a lot of compliments for it.
Meghan S.
I am happy to support indigenous weavers and brought many textiles when I was there. I find the velcro a bit of a pain. I suggest the same head tie configuration with elastic. Much easier to use and if it is one piece of elastic, it adjusts perfectly. Nice work but is it hand woven or machined indigenous patterns?
David W.
Love the mask after I have it adjusted properly. Useful tip is to get the top strap tensioned properly and leave the bottom unfastened to take it off. When putting it back on, slip the top strap into position and lightly attach the bottom. One thing I would advise is to make the nose bridge stronger, I have problem fitting it to the arch of my nose and staying there.
Faith M.
These masks look small at first, but then they open fully and leave breathing room.
The adjustable straps don't hurt my ears, and the material is really sturdy.
Unfortunately, I lost my mask two days after it came, and my husband will not share his, because he loves it!
Clark S.
I love the two items I purchased. They were shipped quickly (I still am waiting on Amazon products I ordered a month ago to be shipped) and I received them just as quick. I live in a remote area and it was a pleasant surprise to receive something so quickly.
Carol M.
I really like the masks. Just velcro the bottom tie around neck comfortably and then when you want to wear it over your face, you place the top tie over your head and into place. Pretty easy and fast. I love the colors, too.
Candace B.
They were Christmas gifts.
Everyone loved them!
Peter H.
Really like the non-over the ears straps. I ordered an earlier version and find the straps a little thin and hard to hook up with gloves on. The new order (2 for 1) I noticed the straps were bigger, but I haven't tried it yet. I wear glasses and find the fit tight enough to avoid foggy lenses. I have found that if I wear the mask steadily for some time the condensation in the mask (when I'm out in the cold) gets pronounced. Also I have been putting in filters for added safety. I would be nice if the masks had a pouch for them. Now they work themselves out of position. Overall, very happy and glad to support the women weavers in Guatemala. I was in Alta Vera Paz in the 1960's with the K'ekchi. Sa Bantiosh, all around!
Andrew H.
I love the fact that this mask doesn’t touch my mouth. However- I really wish the straps were longer. They barely reach around. It’s not really designed for people with big heads like mine.
Linden W.
i am having a difficult time with the velcro straps. Other than that these gorgeous and very protective too.
Sydney L.
I play ukulele with friends, six feet apart and masked. This is the best mask for singing. The fabric is not on my lips and it allows free movement of the mouth to sing.
John V.
Too difficult to adjust once in place! If I need to blow my nose, drink or eat it becomes difficult to deal with! It is very good in protection and not fogging of eyewear! Well made and I think it looks good!
Carol H.
It's beautiful, nice and thick but still easy to breathe with. It has a nice secure fit and is adjustable.
Debbye S.
The masks are a bit heavier than I expected. They are made very well and quite comfortable.
Laura K.
I would love this mask, except after a few weeks of wearing it, the nose bridge broke and now does not function at all.
I wish the nose bridge had a slot so I could replace it so I can keep using the mask.
Otherwise I really like how the mask sits on my face and that I can breathe easily without any material pressing against my nose & mouth.
I love the straps around the back of the head instead of the ears and that they are velcro for easy adjustment...
I wish the velcro direction was reversed so that it didn't grab my hair when I wear it.
Gregg I.
These masks are worth the price you pay for them!
Ken S.
These are comfortable, and stay in place well. I use them while skiing, and do not have the usual problem of a wet mask on my mouth and nose. The sturdy straps and velcro adjustments are great. I get a lot of complements on them.
Richard W.
Beautiful masks.
chris c.
High quality, but does not adequately cover my mouth and nose. Looks great, doesn’t really work for me. I’m sure it will work wonderfully for others.
Selwyn G.
The design is good and the construction is put together well. Overall I am quite pleased with the product and would consider purchasing again.
Sam B.
Comfortable and colorful; but the straps should be longer.
John H.
These masks work well. There is space in the mask so that it isn't touching my face. Better than some at not fogging glasses. Best part for me is that I wear hearing aids and these don't interfere with the hearing aids or pull them out of my ear when I remove the mask.
Alan K.
Really nice masks, and the designs are made to represent local patterns from Guatemala that show one’s community of origin. If you’re on board with the Velcro headbands, these are good masks.
Thomas H.
Best masks I own. The design is perfect, allowing the mask to sit away from the face.
Joe K.
They are well made but we just didn't like it as well as others we have.
David W.
Little tricky to figure out at first (no directions came with it). But once I figured it out I wear it most every day.
Michael M.
Great fabric and colors! Pros: straps are very adjustable, design leaves more breathing room. Great company to work with and super easy ordering, fast shipping. Support smaller businesses! Cons: Straps slide off easily unless you really tighten them, but that presses down on the nose uncomfortably. Perhaps some elastic would help.
Jesse H.
My favorite mask by far. My only suggestion would be to make elastic straps as an alternative to the velcro
Kathy H.
I am a small woman and the straps are MUCH too long - even at the tightest setting. I have shortened them and they fit well.
I love the use of velcro since they can be easily adjusted.
The quality of the fabric is wonderful. It is firm and I am hoping it softens a bit with washing but I do really like it.
Michael S.
The quality is as expected from the advertisement. I found the mask rather clumsy and difficult to take on & off without having to adjust the mask to open to the face.....constantly having to touch the mask counters the safe use.
Live & learn
Ted S.
These are nice masks if you're tired of having strings behind your ears, or need something that sits off of your mouth. I can work hard and move in these masks without it sticking to my mouth like a normal fabric mask. Overall, 8/10
Lisa D.
Looks great, but is a bit stiff. Also, moisture seems to collect on the inside more than softer, cotton liners of other masks.
JULIE M.
I have a petite head and the Velcro straps are to long missing the Velcro itself
Barbara H.
Roomy, durable, comfortable, easy to adjust. Plenty of room to breathe and to speak with very little muffling. Fine-looking, too!
Mark W.
Love the look and feel !!
Louisa M.
Cheap. Stiff. Small/tight fit. Not at all as expected and very disappointing.
Michael H.
Quality craftsmanship, and so good looking!
sharon r.
This mask is the most comfortable mask I've worn. The design holds the cloth away from my face and the straps let me adjust it to get the right fit. No more sore ears from the loops on other masks.
Unfortunately the velcro ripped loose on one of the straps after wearing just a few times. I'll have to repair it before I can wear it again.
Leonard C.
I liked the concept of the design when I saw it and because it helped hard working people I decided to try them. They fit well and I really find them comfortable.
Wayne W.
I wear hearing and this mask is perfect as it does not interfere with my hearing aids or tug on my ears. I also like the fact that it sits off of my mouth.
JAMES C.
Fits well, more roomy inside feels very comfortable on face will be buying more
nicholas b.
Exactly as advertised and fast delivery..
ALLEN J.
I've gotten several compliments on the mask - thanks!
Sharon F.
Bought these for my 92 year old dad who wears hearing aids. Traditional masks drive him crazy because they loosen his hearing aids and are too close to his face. These are perfect because they don't have to go around the ears and they leave plenty of space around the mouth - plus everyone tells him how pretty they are. Had to buy two more so he could wash two at a time. Love them...
Gene K.
Stylish masks. Straps instead of ear loops is a nice change. The design allows me to breathe easily. GOOD JOB.
Wendy K.
No comfortable at all. Can’t wear.
JULIE M.
This is my new favorite mask for comfort and appearance.
Michael C.
Fits off mouth so I can talk. Stays off nose so I can breathe. Tight at top of nose so my glasses don't fog up. Straps go around head so my hearing aids don't fall off.
Looks good. I am happy to help the Guatemalan women.
Tom B.
The velcro straps allow us both to wear our bilateral hearing aids without risk of them being pulled out of our ears by behind the ear cords. We’re also very pleased by the comfort of these masks not pressing against our mouths. We can better discern each other’s speech. The design is widely complimented by others.
Jane E.
I like the strap placement and the mask not going into my mouth with deep inspiration
Paul L.
These masks are very comfortable to wear. It can be a little difficult lining up the Velcro surfaces on the straps, but once this is done they stay on place well, and they it is easy to breathe while wearing one.
Donald G.
Easy to put on and I have received many complements on the fabric.
Billy H.
I especially like that it fits snugly without smooshing my face.
Harold B.
The design would be much better if there was not a Velcro fastening system. The whole design would be better if there were a 5/16” or 3/8” elastic band both lower and upper for attachment. This would make the mask easier to adjust to the facial structure.
Dave A.
Orderer a set for myself and my wife. We were impressed by the range of head sizes that these masks fit (I have a *very* large head and she has a very small head). The velcro-adjustability on the two straps also allows you to customize your fit for a more comfortable experience. Our favorite part of the masks is that they sit off of your mouth, allowing you to breathe and talk more easily while wearing them. For glasses-wearers, the mask does cause some fogging, but with a bit of careful placement you can reduce it to next to 0. Unfortunately, the mask did not quite pass the candle-test, but came close (I had to breathe very hard to blow out the candle). I would purchase more.
Jewel R.
I bought this mask for myself and ended up giving both to my bearded husband because he has problems with other masks not working well for him. He often comments about how much he likes it. He says it is extremely comfortable & doesn’t slip.
Kelly P.
Most comfortable mask I can wear it all day!
Sky k.
I was so pleased with my purchase and recommend to others.
Robert K.
I got these because I wear hearing aids, and 'behind the ears' masks tend to pop them right out. I like the velcro fasteners that attach at the top of my head. I like that they hook under my chin, as I have to lecture in a mask, and they don't come off my nose as I talk. They look good too.
Beth A.
Comfortable face mask! I can move my lips so other people can understand what I am saying. Plus, my glasses do *not* fog up. Highly recommend.
Edwina B.
Fits the best of any mask. Straps take a bit to get use to but worth the trouble as the fit is good for me. No foggy glasses.
Debbie H.
Fabric too stiff. Wish the lower strap-neck strap -was wider.
Craig K.
I really like the masks. They arrived and one of the velcro came loose. I told the Buddhas and they sent me not one replacement but the pack of two. How wonderful. These masks are roomy and comfortable and look good too.
James K.
The straps on one of the two masks were not right. I contacted them by email and within a week they sent me not one replacement, but two! I was impressed.
