Mighty Well Mask Fit and Features Guide

The effectiveness of wearing a mask depends largely on how it fits — the idea is for all air going in and out to be filtered by the fabric.  This protects you from germs in the environment, and also prevents any germs you may have from contaminating the people around you.  Any gaps allow germs to escape.  In addition to breathing in germs, the coronavirus is known to spread from touching contaminated surfaces and then touching your own mouth, nose, or eyes.  Wearing a mask and eye protection eliminates this risk as well!  It is crucial that your mask is comfortable so that you are not tempted to adjust it and, therefore, touch your face.  So, how do you know what is a good fit?

Our sizes and features have got you covered!

sizes

Mighty Well offers four sizes for the Mighty Well Mask.  Check out the measurements in the chart below to determine the right size for you.  The mask should be snug so that air is filtered through the fabric, rather than escaping through gaps, but big enough to cover your nose and chin.  If you think you might be between sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller size.

*NEW* We are now able to offer KIDS size masks, for kids aged 3-7 years old! (Use size XS for older kids, tweens, teens, and petite adults)

features

Antimicrobial silver-ion technology embedded in the fabric for life!  Antimicrobial properties protect the mask against microbes — microscopic pathogens like mold, bacteria, and viruses.

Adjustable nose clip effortlessly contours your nose and cheeks to keep your mask from slipping off!  It also closes any gaps in the top of the mask, keeping you safe and your glasses fog-free.  Be sure to pinch your nose clip so it’s snug every time you put it on.

3D molded design is made to hug your face, eliminating gaps around your chin and cheeks.

Moisture-wicking and anti-odor fabric helps you resist the urge to adjust your mask, allowing safe comfort all day long.

Ultra-soft ear-loops for all-day comfort and a secure, snug, gap-free fit.

Water-repellent up to 20 washes so you can stay safe and confident, rain or shine!

Environmentally friendly reusable mask with biodegradable bag.

*Note: In our efforts to reduce waste, we’ve chosen a biodegradable bag for our packaging. Because of this, note that we can’t control the exact color of the bag that you will receive.

Eva: 5’4″ 115 pounds (S) Tess: 95 pounds 5’3″ (XS) Cole: 5’10” 175 pounds (M)

My osteopath wears your masks and commented how wonderful they are. So, I recently received my very own 3 pack of masks, and love the fit and feel. I also feel good about supporting your company. My sister suffered chronic lyme…My concern is when I blow toward a candle, it moves the flame, (not extinguishes it). And when I hold it up to a 40 watt light bulb 12″ away, I can easily see light thru it. I have read those are the two basic ways to determine if the mask is effective.
I want these to protect me, and do not feel safe without those two basic qualifications. I may not be the first customer to mention this, but could not find any additional information on your site to relieve my concerns…would love to hear from you! Thank you.

Thank you for bringing this up! We have been sure to follow CDC guidelines, for example using a nose clip to minimize gaps and two layers of double-knit fabric separated by bamboo carbon. When we conducted the candle test ourselves, it was successful as long as the mask was the right fit. As safety for our community is our #1 priority, however, we will look into this further and will get back to you with more information. If you have additional questions in the meantime, you are always welcome to email us at listenup@mightywell.com!

I’ve seen some people boiling their masks to wash is this ok?

Ariela Paulsen December 1, 2020 - 2:49 pm

Hello! I’m so glad you asked. You do NOT want to boil a Mighty Well mask, since hot water will ruin the antimicrobial fabric! It’s best to hand wash in cold water. Other masks may recommend washing in hot water to kill the germs. Since Mighty Well masks have antimicrobial fabric, germs aren’t living on them anyway, so cold water is fine. If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to ask below or email us at Listenup@mightywell.com. Thank you!

68% Polyester
16% Silver ion
8% Bamboo carbon

Our Story

Mighty Well - Founder - Emily Levy - Our Story

 

It all started with a cut off sock, a cute hockey player, and an 8 AM finance class. Oh, and a PICC Line. That moment inspired us to launch our first product, the PICCPerfect PICC Line Cover.

 

We know it stinks to feel defined by a diagnosis or feel like just a name on a doctor’s chart. Sounds like you? Read how our founder turned sickness into strength.

One positive that came out of the pandemic was tha One positive that came out of the pandemic was that many of us were able to have flexible working arrangements. As more states lift restrictions, heading back to work after months of working from home can be a huge adjustment for so many of us. Allowing time in our schedules for commuting, brushing up on our social skills, and making sure to have access to our medical supplies are just a few things we need to prepare for.

📸 Mighty Well ambassador @ameliablackwater headed back to the classroom last week and is working on finding a happy balance of working, socializing, and finding time for herself. 

If you've returned to work, what was the hardest part about making the transition back?

You can hardly wait to tell everyone what happened You can hardly wait to tell everyone what happened and  suddenly start talking and realize you don't know where the story is going...has this happened to anyone else lately 🙋‍♂️We've been there! Brain fog, perhaps the most universal aspect of illness, is exhausting. Cognitive disorders can be frustrating but take solace in knowing that you are not alone. We've all experienced that foggy feeling 🌫 and although it's not permanent, it can arrive quickly and definitely overstay its welcome. 

Looking for a little help getting the fog to lift? Our Brain Fog Fix Planner is more than just a reminder system. It includes space to track daily symptoms, hydration, thoughts and moments of gratitude amidst the daily challenges and is brought to you with input from our Friends in the Fight® Click the link in our bio to find out more.

Our backpack is perfect for wheelchair users, as it has multiple strap locations to allow for flexibility. Nobody needs to know that you are carrying or wearing your essential medical devices and supplies. As patients ourselves, this is a product that we wish we’d had! 💪💚 Best of all this can be purchased with most FSAs (Flexible Spending Accounts) and HSAs (Health Savings Accounts) Click on the photo to take a look inside the Mighty Pack.
