BAM x ERRE x IDVC Pleated Mask with Cotton Ties (BLACK)
THE STORY:
This mask range forms part of an ongoing collaborative relationship between The BAM Collective, ERRE and Isabel De Villiers. After weeks of creating masks for supply companies, we have designed a range of practical fabric masks for public consumption, sewn by 9 pairs of hands in 4 different studios and homes.
A portion of the sales from these masks will be kept for the creation and donation of food parcels and other supplies for the vulnerable.
THE DESIGN:
These masks were designed with comfort, practicality and quality in mind:
- Three layer mask. Two layers of high thread count cotton twill, with a non-woven polypropylene filter in between.
- Pleated design aids in breathability.
- The mask fits over the face and features two cotton strips that ties at the back of the head
- Mask has a flexible wire at the top, that moulds over the bridge of your nose.
- The mask acts as a barrier between small particle droplets.
- Moisture resistant.
- Can last up to six months with daily use.
- Washable and fast drying.
THE CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
Follow the below instructions to get the most wear out of your mask:
- Machine wash with regular detergent on the hottest setting.
- To make your mask last longer, wash by hand with warm tap water, detergent and a disinfectant such as Dettol.
- Bleach will damage the mask.
- Iron on the "wool" setting (warm but not hot).
- Drip dry out of direct sunlight.
-
Although boiling the mask in a pot is recommended for severe cleaning, it will significantly reduce the lifespan of your mask. Hot water and soap is just as effective especially when a disinfectant is added
