This is my favorite mask so far, and the most trustworthy, so I ordered multiples in black and white. There are many copies of this style, and they're probably all okay, but this is the brand I chose, and it's the mask I feel does the most satisfactory job. It comes in black and white, in packs starting at 10 and up. Because of the extra fabric in the upper and lower parts, it's well sealed & it prevents air from escaping like many other masks allow, and keeps us from breathing onto other people. I have a narrow face, so I had to tie little knots in the ear loops, but it's still very comfortable. Naturally, it feels warmer than other masks (because it's 4-ply and covers more of the face). But this is the one I'd want when out in a crowded place, especially an airport.***For the record, I haven't had the flu for 4 years because I do a lot of hand washing & stay out of crowds. (I didn't get the whatever the latest flu was either by observing the same habits). When I taught school, I was sick all the time because I was right in the middle of the contagion, and nobody wore masks in the 80's (except in Asia). So that should assure people that being in large crowds isn't a great idea during an epidemic, because there are breakthrough cases right now, and the Delta variant is more contagious.For the people who are confused or refuse, I'd say that nobody likes wearing a mask: but that's not important, because it is damned necessary out of consideration for those around us. At the very least, the typical 2-3 ply, "hospital-style" ones are better than nothing. So if you're not just out for a walk, or not able to avoid crowds, then this is the mask that's going to be the safest.
