"Great mask I got it yesterday and already fell in love with it. Although I recommend a neoprene mask to were underneath. I also bought goggles but the mask makes a gap on top if I wear it on the mask but it is workable.
PROS
good quality
great protection
easily adjustable
looks great
CONS
pressure on cheeks
not the best for goggles

"This is a pretty sweet mask, but it needs some fixing up on comfort issues. First, the grommet holding the strap to the mask itself isn't adjustable. Second, the cloth isn't the softest ever, so it digs into the top of my cheeks (could be just me). It can sometimes slip and push itself up into your eyes if you don't have it adjusted properly. Anyway, it's a great mask, looks cool, and is comfortable after you adjust it, and is awesome for the price.
Pros:
Looks cool
Moldable
Cons:
Strap isn't as adjustable as I would've liked
Top of mask can dig into top of cheeks

"The mask is generally excellent for what its made for. But for any fellow lefties out there, here's a warning. The mask is slightly bigger and molded in a different way to fit the shooting position of a righty. Some molding can make it just as useful on the other side, but the mask ends up looking like its in an awkward position on your face
Pros:
Low-Profile
Lightweight
Very good ventilation
Great protection
Cons:
Made mostly for righties

"Bought this for an op. for the fact that mine actually broke on me.
Pros;
- Cheap
- Decent protection
- Very nice last minute piece
Cons;
- Uncomfortable unless worn correctly
- Takes longer to form to your face
- May cut into skin
Overall, it's a good piece if you have the patience to break it in.

"I got this mask recently and I must say it is amazing. it will definitely hold up to protect you against any gun and it is very cool looking. it fits my safety glasses perfectly. if you are having trouble fitting it on your head I think it's because the back strap is supposed to go towards the top of your head rather than directly behind it and u will probably have a little trouble with it fitting your face but all you need to do is bend it to the shape of you face tight enough where it can almost stay on without the use of a strap. if you have a problem with your facemask fogging up than this and some safety glasses will be perfect for u. also if you are a sniper like me u will want this so you can actually look down the sights. only complaint I have is I noticed some dried glue glopped up around the sides which takes on a kind of cheap appearance. anyway great mask for the price and if u want it, GET IT!!!
p.s. if your glasses still get fogged up I heard shaving cream can solve that for a short while.

"Too many times have I seen casualties lost to the tooth fairy! This wonderful little apparel will keep your chompers safe and your face looking pretty. A must for CQB!
The mesh is strong enough to stand up to point blank 400 fps fire out of an m14, yet flexible enough to use a scope with.
Pros:
Keeps face pretty
Strong
Flexible
Cons:
Can sometimes be uncomfortable
The mesh is connected to the border by hot glue. This doesn't effect the product functionally, but it's not as aesthetically pleasing. (Looks pretty)
Overall: It's cheap and gets the job done. I'd rather pay 12 buck for protection than a couple grand to a dentist.

"I didn't buy the mask here but its a nice mask.
only con is that the nose part may hurt between the eyes with googles since it goes up so high. Just add small foam there and you will be fine.

"I love that you can actually BREATH in this, but within 24 hours of having it (not even using it!) the cloth around the edge started to fall off. Not too big a deal, I sewed it back and now I know it won't fall off. Also, I am a petite girl, so it's alittle big for my small head, had to add alittle more velcro to the strap, and I have to have my hair up to keep the strap from sliding off (the guys I know who have this have not had this issue). All in all though, totally worth it now that I can breath!

"I still use this only because I don’t have the cash currently to buy a new one but I can honestly say this thing is a piece of junk I had to break it in and it chaffed my cheeks like crazy making it look like I was constantly blushing the little cloth piece that holds the head strap and mesh mask together slides out super easy and it got to the point where I had to stitch it in place to even get through a game if I were you spend some extra money and but a good mask

"Although i still use this mask I would not recommend it to anyone it is cheap and not worth the money the first few months I used it after the at was over my face would be red and inflamed from rubbing against the steal mesh later on the bindings on the side would come off so often tk the point where I taped them on after a while you break it in and get used to it but I would suggest buying a better quality mask and not wasting your time with this Junk

"If you have a long nose, not tge best thing to get. It's a solid mask, but I gotta long nose so it low-key hurts. Especially for long periods of time

"Mine did not come with the elastic band connecting the two back straps. Not bad and offers good protections. It can be bent to fit your face better but the mesh will be a bit uncomfortable wherever it settles against your face.

"Overall, decent mask works well with many goggles. Only problem i had was that it was sightly deformed when i got it and it was a hassle to get back into place.
