Facemask - What are you wearing? Plain, or designed?

I'm talking about homemade masks that are basically a piece of cloth. People are supposed to use the disposable filtering layers inside them, but most people I've seen don't.
I hope this is a joke. If not, think about other people for a change and do what is right. Wear a mask.
EDIT: why is "no mask" even an option in the poll? It's not an option in society right now, it shouldn't be an option in a poll.
My wife sewed one with elasticated parts to fit around my ears and a pocket for a filter and she sewed a tiny triforce on there to let me know that it's my mask!
This one that is made out of some kind of neoprene-ish material. Ordered it online from some lady who makes them here locally.

Well, good luck to you and I hope no one gets sick because of you.
12 people don't wear a mask at all...
I hope you walk around in a bubble like bubble boy, or you're putting people's lives at risk because of your possible stupidity.

I was wearing a normal surgical mask but I just got these Toronto Maple Leaf masks which are pretty cool.

Yeah the port thing is a problem. Unless it can filter what exhales, not recommended
Yeah.. it's no joke..you save lives by wearing a mask, and with confirmed re-infection happening..it's the wisest, smartest thing to do.
I've seen a couple people say they don't wear a mask because they already had Covid.. they were rightfully derided... and in the end, they got it again 3 months later and actually required a stay in the hospital the second time.
No, I live in a country where coronavirus hasn't been a daily issue for well over a month.
Not me pictured, but I got a few of these block colour ones from a local refugee / migrant women's not-for-profit đź‘Ť
Fair enough. Must be nice living there and having a normal life
Unlike our countries lol
Designs. If I have to live in this hellscape, I'm going to have fun with it.

I don't have the confidence to pull off a big design, but I do like the small and subtle images. This is my main one at the moment.
They do their job well enough.
Mask should only reduce your exhale flow in order to minimize the area which is affected by drobblets from you exhaling.
Exept in a medical environment. There people should wear KN95 to protect themselves.
The homemade ones i have been wearing have 3 layers of cloth, is that good enough?

just running out for a walk or a trip to a small store? cute cloth masks a friend made or a disposable medical mask.
doing laundry or going to the grocery store? KN95.
at work? heavier duty cloth mask with filters.
in the city where im going to be around and interacting with a ton of strangers? 3M half-mask respirator with P100 filters.

My mom made the two that I wear the most, and also made one for my 2-year old which is very cute. They're not really "designed" but they have colorful fabric. I recently just bought a 5 pack of simple black ones to rotate into my lineup because I've been revolving the same 2 masks for... 5 months.

I like the look of this one. What's the site you ordered it from?
I have two patterned cloth ones, but most of the time I just use plain storebought ones. I don't do laundry nearly often enough to always have access to my colorful masks. And no, I don't want to own like seven of them, that's overkill.
At first I was making them out of tshirts, but then my parents sent like 200 plain ones from Japan so now I just wear those.
I just ordered this exact set of masks, but in blue. Is it comfy? Does it fit OK? It should be arriving in the next couple days.Bought a pack of these a little while ago. 3 face masks for $22CAD. Not a bad price and they feel great to wear.
I have a simple, monotone cloth mask. The simpler the design, the better, as it makes it much easier to wash or store. All these masks with extra three-dimensional shapes added on top (like that Gundam mask) seem like legit awful ideas.
EDIT: To clarify, patterns are totally fine. It's the complex, non-cloth masks that I think are defeating some of the purpose of wearing masks.

I would have already bought some of those in the OP by now if I knew where to find them.
I made some cute cotton ones. But I love the imaginative designs, we're stuck wearing these for a long time why not have fun with them? But personally I'd stick with ones I can wash easily.
