The Henry VIII Mask
Our Henry VIII is based on the field armor of the notorious king of England, a piece currently on view at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. This intricately designed suit was crafted for the king late in his life (what I like to call his “fat Elvis” period), which he wore into battle during his last military campaign despite his infirmities at the time. But you can get all of the artistry without any of the gout in our take on this beautiful armor. 😉
Please be advised that masks are not returnable.
Our model is wearing a size S.
Masks
The S measures 6.5 inches across, from ear loop to front. The M measures 7 inches. The L measures 7.5 inches.
To get the best fit, I recommend measuring your face from the bridge of your nose to the back of your earlobe. Match that measurement to the mask's, rounding down. I wear a S, and my distance is almost exactly 6.5". Luke wears a M, and his distance is about 7". If you're between sizes, size down: it's better to get a tighter seal than to have it gapping around your face, they do stretch.
Masks
Lorica masks are made with a single layer of scuba-type fabric with a center seam. Aerosols do not visibly penetrate them, and they have been tested to filter dust. I don't feel comfortable making the claim that my masks are going to make you impervious to any virus, but maybe they'll give you a little more courage to face the day. If they at least make going outside with a face covering one iota less dreadful, and one iota more powerful, I hope they're something worth making.
All masks have been washed once, but do consider washing a second time before wearing (especially if you are sensitive to certain detergents: I use Tide).
