Make your glasses sit on top of your face mask. If you don’t want to use a nose wire, the next best option is to wear your glasses further down your nose. If the ear loops don’t fit perfectly, your mask might hang loosely from your face and fog anyway. Whatever face mask you decide to make, I highly recommend making the ear loops adjustable.
The designer gives no instructions for this. It allows for some jaw movement.īut you have to add a nose wire along the top or it will fog a lot. It sits close to the sides of your face and chin without gaping. This mask really pops out and stays away from your lips, making it easier to talk. The 3d/origami pattern from Japanese Sewing Books also did well in my tests, but for different reasons. It was created by medical staff, not sewing pattern designers, so I understand why. My biggest issue with this pattern is that the template and instructions are unconventional, so it takes a while to read and digest. But it doesn’t fit the chin closely, giving you lots of jaw movement. This stops your warm breath from escaping at the top and fogging up your glasses. So it molds around your nose and cheeks, not just your nose.
Unlike most designs, it has a nose wire that runs along the entire top edge. I used the same fabric and number of layers to make the comparison fairer (2 layers of cotton-linen fabric and no filter).Īfter testing, the best face mask pattern for glasses is the pleated face mask from Selsey Medical Practise. So I sewed and tested 5 face mask patterns to find the best for glasses. As a full-time glasses-wearer, I’m very familiar with the face mask fogging issue!
