Mask brackets

"these will make breathing so much easier"

Well, for some. I've never worn the mask for more than 2 hours, but it
doesn't bother me at all. Of course mine is stiffer than cloth, but
it's also less soft. OTOH, even my someone stiff mask is softer than
these brackets.

Some or all brackets are made from a softer plastic than I thought, but
I can't remember the word right now. Glucose, cellulose, something
like that. Silicone maybe.

Anyhow, it's a thought.

I have one in my hand as we speak. They are very soft and flexible.


And do they make it easier to breath safely?

Dunno, I didn't try it. Logic says if this makes the mask leakier than
it already is, you will breathe easier tho.
It still looks like you are doing something and that seems to be all
that is necessary.
