    I’d still try paper masks. Nothing is going to not trap water vapor that will trap respiratory droplets, unfortunately. They are kind of one and the same. At least w paper you can change them out and discard when they get wet.

    All of my family used paper masks while skiing this week, and we had some other options. It didn’t not get wet, but it wasn’t always wet. We used 2-3/day. I often covered mine with my fleece helmet hood, but my kids and DH preferred just the mask.

    I’ve for years skied with a neck warmer or balaclava over my face cause I’m sensitive and susceptible to cold, and my skin gets easily irritated by cold/windburn. Paper masks have been an improvement in comfort, so I may stick with them after covid is gone.

    We skied today and I did pretty well in the under Armour one and my DD wore the 32 degrees and said that was pretty good too. Both got a little damp but not awful.

    Thanks all, keep it coming. That bracket looks intriguing.
    Do you have a link for the Under Armor masks you use?

    What size did you get? I'm thinking about ordering myself one for our ski trip, as the ones I normally wear for everything else are made of cotton.

    DS17 has used these the last few races - can breathe well and says they don’t suck up against his face at all.

    For the size, I followed the sizing on the chart and measured carefully from middle of nose to middle of ear. I got the m/l and DD got the s/m and they fit great, so I would totally recommend measuring as they say.

    It looks like these are in store and on sale at Dicks too, where there may also be tons of clearance items.
