Reduce exposure to: smoke, acrid air, dust, pollution, fragrances,
diesel fumes, mold and other particles. Effective for poor air quality
indoors or on airplanes. A porous, lightweight, washable shell holds and
seals a disposable carbon filter. Mask fits in a pocket. The adjustable
ear loops allow for a personal fit and long wearing comfort, even with
eye glasses, goggles or a helmet. Replace filter when breathing becomes
difficult or odor comes through even after adjusting nose wire. How long
a filter lasts depends upon your sensitivities and environment. You can
talk and be heard while wearing these masks.

Notes from I Can Breathe!® Masks designer and president: The Honeycomb porous masks were designed to specifically hold the carbon filters. It was aimed for a light weight and cool as possible frame. The adjustable ear loops for personalized fit and the flexible, non-breaking nose bar pressed over the nose and under the eyes provide an effective seal on the I Can Breathe!® Mask configuration. The carbon filter has been found to be effective in the following circumstances: Traveling on an airplane, my nasal passages stay clear and I don't experience ear pain. In a stuffy heated room full of people in a 100 year old building being renovated, I stay awake and can concentrate (compared to others who are nodding off). When putting gas in my car, I don't smell the fumes. When riding on a diesel fueled bus or driving on a Chicago expressway behind trucks with my car windows open, I don't smell exhaust and don't cough. A motel room wreaked of disinfectant spray even after airing it. With the carbon filter, I was able to sleep comfortably with no illness. On the phone, a customer reported that she wore the filter at a conference in Reno where women wore perfume. The filter made a big difference for her. In her room, before her air purification unit cleared the air, she tried to sleep but couldn't. She put on the Honeycomb Mask with carbon filter and slept comfortably. Most dramatically: On humid days when the Pollutant Standards Index in Chicago rises above 45, I used to become increasingly exhausted. Above PSI 60, I experienced chills, fatigue, mental fogginess and indecision. Now I put on the carbon filter, within minutes my body warms, my energy is restored, my mind clears and I am decisive.
