Best Etsy shop for (larger) face masks?

[RoxMonster]

While I have a couple cloth masks, I am thinking ahead to August and beyond, and if we go back to school in any way, shape, or form, I’m sure teachers will be wearing masks all day. I would also like to own more than two so I don’t have to immediately wash them upon wearing.

I have a fat face. I’ve ordered a couple on Etsy that are too tight/don’t cover my nose and mouth. I prefer ear loops to ties. I don’t really care about the color or patterns. Definitely want something breathable and able to be heard through for teaching.

I’ve seen some four packs on Amazon where reviews have said they’re too small so I think I’m sticking with Etsy. Any specific shops you’ve had good luck with especially if you also have a larger face? Preferably one that ships within a week or so.
ETA: The two I own now were made by a friend for free and I don’t want to ask her for more/she isn’t really making them right now because she’s back in grad school.

I just got a set of both curved and flat masks from Tekhni, though I'm not sure they're selling them on their Etsy site. I saw the notification to buy them by following them on facebook. The company sells woven wraps for carrying babies and I love all their designs. The masks definitely seem big enough to fit anyone and have ties that go around the back of your head and neck, so no strain on your ears. They're very comfortable and I find them easy to breathe in despite being fairly thick. Pretty designs too.

Also, in case anyone is looking for masks for kids, Primary.com is now selling kid-sized ones with a strap that goes around the head rather than behind the ears.

I don't have a source for large face masks.  I am also a teacher.  I had to go in last week and pack up all of my kids' desks, and I will have to go in two more times to clean up my room for summer.  We are required to wear masks the whole time we are on school property and there is no a/c.  I do have several cloth face masks, but I just ordered several boxes of disposable masks because it was really hot and sweaty work and I was happy I was wearing a disposable one.  My school will be required to provide masks.  I will have my reusable ones, but I want to be able to switch to a clean, dry mask, so I have some disposable ones available for that.

I am also going to buy a face shield but 3M is sold out right now.

Not Etsy, but I got some from headcovers.com and they offer a large size. (They started as/are primarily a site for cancer patient hats and head covers, hence the name). They give the dimensions of their masks on the site.

I got the bamboo ones and they are super soft, breathable.

I bought some from Athleta that are really comfortable. They’re pleated, so fit large faces. They have adjustable ear loops to fit multiple widths.

Thanks, all! I will check out some of these sites.

These are amazing - super soft and comfortable with breathable material.  Use code ERICA for free 2 day shipping.  The kids masks are great too.

I’m making masks, and have a style that comes in four sizes - small, medium, large, and extra-large. The medium fits my 9 yr old, the large fits my mom and me, and the XL fits my dad. I can PM you pics/info if your other searches don’t pan out.

I've ordered 4 so far from this woman on etsy and they are the most comfortable ones I have so far. They are adjustable also. She's fast because they are already made and responsive to questions.

Also, I have ordered one from else where on etsy ( I can look it up if yo are interested) that has a clear part because one of my parents right now is hard of hearing, but also I teach Kindergarten, and ENL Kindergarten at that. The seller I like on etsy doesn't have clear masks and I got one that said it was comfortable on the ears. It's fine, fogs up really easily and I want to hold off and hope for some sort of breakthroughs in the clear mask department before September.

I have gotten a few from www.electricstyles.com.

They have a filter pocket and adjustable ear loops and they come with extra metal nose clip pieces.

I got a few that were too small, didn't really cover my chin and jawline fully, and some others that fit better but felt really hard to breathe in. These are the best ones I've tried so far. They ship really quickly too.
