FAQ
WHAT IS USA SEWN MASK?
Here is the obligatory Medium article.
(TL;DR: We want to play our part in beating COVID-19)
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SHIP THE MASK?
We ship all orders within 24 hours of your purchase.
WHERE DO YOU SHIP TO?
We are currently only shipping orders within the USA.
DO I NEED TO WASH THE MASK BEFORE USING IT FOR THE FIRST TIME?
Nope! We wash all masks before shipping. Just follow the instructions in the next question before first use.
HOW DO I USE THIS MASK SAFELY?
To use the mask safely, make sure that the mask covers your nose and mouth, after you put it on. Once you have adjusted the mask the first time, do not touch your face again. If you accidentally touch your face while wearing the mask, wash your hands right away. Wash your hands after taking it off. When you are done wearing the mask, you can put it in the wash.
HOW DO I TAKE THE MASK OFF?
@EpiEllie has a great how-to, thank you!
HOW DO I WASH AND CARE FOR THE MASK?
These masks should be washed after every use and per the CDC:
"Launder items as appropriate in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. If possible, launder items using the warmest appropriate water setting for the items and dry items completely. Dirty laundry from an ill person can be washed with other people’s items."
WHAT DO I DO IF MY MASK IS MOIST AFTER WEARING FOR AWHILE?
Once the mask gets too wet with your breath, it is no longer effective. We recommend for people that are out the WHOLE day to have three masks (and to place wet ones in a plastic bag; being careful to take it off as in the Twitter video).
WHAT MATERIAL ARE THE MASKS MADE OF?
The masks are made with 100% cotton white jersey knit T-shirt fabric.
ARE THESE MEDICAL-GRADE MASKS?
To be clear, cotton masks are not a replacement for medical-grade masks but with the aforementioned shortage in PPE for our frontline healthcare workers, cotton masks can substitute for everyday use and are a significant improvement over nothing (click here for research on benefits of mask-wearing).
WHAT IS MY MASK SIZE?
Please see below (↓↓) for how to measure your face.
If the measurement from the top of the bridge of your nose (over the tip; as the mask will cover it) to your chin is:
*Less than 12cm (4 3/4 in.) = MEDIUM
*Greater than 12cm (4 3/4 in.) = LARGE
If you are unsure:
*Get the LARGE, it will fit MEDIUM faces but may extend a bit past the chin
