排ガス対策に
"自動車の排気ガスが気になり購入しました。
冬場装着していると排気バルブからマスク内で結露した水滴が垂れ落ちるので要注意です。"

かなり効果的です
Pros: 快適さ, 高品質, 軽量さ, 良いフィット感
Cons: 見た目の悪さ
"出勤時の渋滞で、喉が痛くなっていたのでCity Filterと一緒に購入しました。
喉の痛みがほぼ無くなったのと、口の中の乾燥も無くなったのでいいことづくめです。
1時間も走っていると、呼気でマスクの中がビチョビチョになるのは仕方ないのでしょうね。。。
これが無ければ良いのですが、そうなると保湿効果も落ちるんでしょうか。
あと、グレーを頼んだのは失敗でした。見た目のガラの悪さ的に。
ともあれフィルタ交換して長く使っていきたいアイテムです。"

useful kit
Pros: Comfortable, Lightweight
"I bought the sportsta mask 1 month ago and have been using it ever since on my daily cycling commute in city traffic. Discomfort is minimal, even when breathing hard. I certainly feel the difference in my lungs afterwards: either it's very effective or the placebo effect is awesome!"

It's clammy but it does the job
Pros: Adjustable, Lightweight
Cons: Unattractive, clammy!
"What is the lesser of the following two evils? Getting a clammy face and somewhat restricted breathing or breathing in the London muck. After seeing the grime that the mask catches, I think I'll settle for the former over the latter. It is not a perfect solution but I don't know whether there is anything else on the market that is as light, effective and comfortable. If there is I'd happily switch products."

Wiggle should give more helpful size info
Cons: Poor Fit
"I have no idea if this is good or not because the description didn't say what the sizes meant. As a regular sized person I got what I thought was a regular fit not a "large" fit. But it's basically small or big and small is for children. So now I have a useless child's mask. This is the site's fault not the product."

Great mask!
Pros: Durable, Comfortable, Adjustable, Lightweight, Good Fit
Cons: Unattractive
"This anti pollution mask conforms very well to any face, produces minimal resistance to breathing, doesn't fog up your sunglasses and can be used anywhere- I even use it in the garage when I'm working on my bike to filter out the car fumes!"

Good but alittle sweaty
Pros: Durable, High Quality, Adjustable
Cons: Expensive
"I really high quality product, the only minor downsides are:
>After a while your face gets alittle sweaty, but i think it cant be helped.
>I feel the designers could of done with another size up as the nose bridge is a tad uncomfortable.
Apart the weird stares and the odd comment, i feel it does the job."

Fits well and offers peace of mind
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Adjustable, Lightweight, Good Fit
Cons: poor ventilation
"For the sake of looking like a bandit, this mask is worth having. My reasons for buying this mask was not to trade a healthy heart for bad lungs, breathing in car and bus fumes riding through the city.
The mask itself fits easily and can be adjusted. It's hard to say if any particles are being filtered out, but it does provide a peace of mind and almost a sense of being cool with the mask on.
The mask does sweat up my face a bit on long hot riding days, and breathing can be difficult at times, but generally speaking breathing it not too bad and just takes getting used to.
I've had no issues with adjusting the mask and have used it everyday without any problems. While perhaps it's not so necessary being in Sydney, I'd much prefer to look like a bandit than breathe in fumes from city traffic any day!"

Anti pollution mask - ideal for London
Pros: Comfortable, Adjustable, Good Fit
Cons: Expensive
"I commute to work by bike and after a few mornings the London air was causing a few problems. This anti pollution mask has solved those problems. It clearly works, is comfortable and a good fit. Negatives are the price which is approaching "expensive" (but you do get what you pay for it seems) and that occasionally the mask causes my glasses to steam up (soon clears up when you travel at a reasonable speed)."

Does what it says on the pack (pretty much)
Pros: High Quality, Adjustable, Lightweight
"I've only been using the mask for a few days going through central london. It seems to work very well at filtering out exhaust and dust (as I'm asthmatic I would immediately feel if it wasn't working). The facilitated breathing works very well and doesn't prevent breathing even when going uphill with a headwind. The only slight issue is that the bridge of my nose becomes sore after wearing it for an hour, though that is probably just due to the shape of my nose. The mask does also tend to be damp by the end of the journey, even though I think it's meant to allow vapour to escape. Overall though I'm extremely happy and wouldn't be able to commute without it."

Cold weather face mask
Pros: Adjustable, Comfortable, Good Fit, High Quality, Lightweight
"Ideal mask for keeping throat warm on cold morning. Filter not carbon so only filters out particulates. Gills work a treat in minimising inhalation pressure but it is important to get the right size - I went for medium and its just a tad small so squashes top of nose a bit. Product very well made, comes apart easily for cleaning and washing. Nice strong velco fixing means it wont fall off in a hurry.
Be prepared to face banter when you start wearing a mask - Ive been called Darth Vader, Man from Atlantis, EcoWarrier, man from NASA etc..
This mask does its job very well - just make sure you get the sizing right.
May the Mask be with you

Desert dust
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Good Fit, High Quality, Lightweight
"I bought this to compete in the Desert Challenge across the Simpson Desert. It arrived too late to test but I think would be too hot to wear normally on such a race. However, dust conditions were so bad that it would have been useful. Might also be a bit clumsy trying to rehydrate. The straps are a bit too short if you have a fat neck. Breathes easily."

Cycle with a pollution mask
Pros: Adjustable, Attractive, Comfortable, Durable, High Quality, Lightweight
Cons: Limited Color Choices
"During my hour long commute through the ingested streets of London I found myself gagging and turning blue in the face. Not only while I was cycling did I suffer, but at the end of the ride my lungs felt like they had aged rather than refreshed.
Trying on the pollution mask for the first time is not fun. It feels a bit like it's going to slip off, however bare with it. After the first couple of sessions you soon realise it's not going to slip and actually fits rather well.
Having bought the sport version I found it easy enough to breathe and didn't sweat too much out in the sun. The design could be made better for comfort, but overall it does the job and has given me the confidence to work up a sweat zooming past the jammed up buses and cars/"
