I truly hate this dude and the prominence he has in my IG explore tab. Literally the first thing I see for over a month. I wish there was a way to filter out all Reels, have yet to see anything but truly bleak and soul crushing content

Maybe stop looking at menswear then?

When I browse all I see are IG fitness chicks

Reels funnels the dregs of humanity – fitness chicks in particular – down our throats.

where are you getting your fabric masks? I have some from etsy and the local tailor, but its very hit or miss. Would like a readily accessible option, black, good fit (not small). Saw that uniqlo carry masks now, but don't trust the sizing.

I like these two:
Outdoor Research
Hyperlite Mountain Gear

The latter I found worked better for me, I use the former now at home when working in the yard for things like kicking up debris etc.

Grab some filters from Outdoor Research too. What I actually like to do is take the filter and instead of unfolding it as it was designed for the Outdoor mask, kept it folded and placed it in in the Hyperlite mask--it holds well enough. Gives me a better peace of mind; Hyperlite I do not experience glasses fogging up but you may experience some gaping on the side. YMMV

@Superb0bo Both have black colors too

The Uniqlo mask sizing is a mess. I got a few of them online in large. The masks themselves are comfortable and breathable, but the ear loops were really long and they don't have the moldable nosepiece. I cut and tied the loops so they fit better and added a nosepiece from a single-use mask, and it works great now.

My first mask outing was a pack of shorn sheets made by Matteo. They cost near $50 and came with non-elasticated loose ends. You could either tie them behind your head in one bulbous knot each and every time you put the mask on, or else spend hours finding the proper fitting for each ear before perma-tying each loop.

The only thing dumber is an $80 perforated leather mask.

Proper Cloth has black linen face masks available in two sizes. Both are designed to wrap a bit more around your face, so you get more coverage under the chin and around your cheeks. The top has a moldable nose piece. The middle has a pouch to hold a proper filter. The whole thing is washable -- both the filter and shell -- so you can reuse it. I just dip mine in soapy water, swish it around, and then let it dry.

You mean you don't bathe it in the waters of Jericho while adorned in ceremonial robes and singing incantations from the Book of Boyer?

I wear masks from Profound Co. for my face, at least, they fit well, and have a filter and filter pocket:

Happy bday dude. I'm a month younger and feeling exactly the same way. It's about time.

I just turned 35 and the only thing that's changed since I was 29 is I make more money and ******** is now an emergency.

If you haven't figured it out by 30, know that makes at least two of us.
