DUCKSBACK Face Mask

This product is—and I do not say this lightly—100 percent washable, in the sink at the end of a day or in a washing machine. The difference between the Wiggy’s face mask and all the rest is the durability. Buy one and probably never replace it.

Why the Ducksback material performs so well as a water resistant fabric

Thanks to the material's micro-gutter structure, tiny convex bulges reduce horizontal surface tension to enable raindrops to slip smoothly off the surface in a vertical direction. DUCKSBACK also has high moisture permeability due to its non-laminated structure, so it allows sweat vapor to escape, keeping the inner surface dry and pleasant to touch.

The above explanation is the reason why the Ducksback material works so well at shedding water, it really is like water running down a duck's back.

The way the yarns used to weave the fabric are bulky and as such when the fabric goes through the dying and finishing process there is always a small amount of shrinkage which causes the yarns to bulk up. Since the fabric is not flat as normal woven nylon it is not smooth. The hand or feel of the fabric is also much softer than nylon.

While the Ducksback will give you protection from the rain over your mouth and nose, the fabric will surely offer more protection from germs of all sorts to include coronavirus. 

Important Note: Face masks are a non-returnable item. Wiggy's strongly recommends you hand wash or machine wash your face mask with detergent before use.
