    Made from second-hand underwear!

      All underwear is second hand underwear in my opinion. That's where my second hand is whenever I'm not using it.

        Where survival meets recreation

    • I'm actually surprised we haven't seen people walking around wearing masks yet that have an elastic strap across the top or bottom with a brand name across them, like you would see on a pair of underwear.

        There's already designer masks and certainly ensure they capitalise on anything and everything.

      I home made mine from an old pair at home. What is the point in spending the same as a new pair of undies?

      nope…. tried mine now. for me its a very good fit and plenty coverage….dont wear glasses so comment on that aspect

      My mum works at the Hanes distribution centre so we got these a little bit ago, they were too big initially but they shrink slightly after a wash and now they're fine for me personally

      These are slightly more expensive, but buying them would support local jobs:

            • @wcnmlgb: Give it a few years.Production is shifting out of china.
              My phone is made in vietnam.
              Iphones are also being made in India now.

              I dont want to pay money to someone who is hostile towards me.
              I rather pay someone else.

              • +2

                @techno2000: Yeah, Production will shift back if the economics are right. China just needs to handle this correctly and they have time on their side. There are few countries out there with the population size, and the infrastructure, to beat China. India, maybe, but I do wonder why they haven’t made more of a dent than now? I agree with you, though, give it a few more years to see what the final fallout is.

                • @try2bhelpful: Why only India?You mean to say countries without 1 billion population cant manufacture anything??

                  There are heaps of countries with lower cost labour than china which can manufacture the crap being manufactured in china at the moment.

                  Vietnam,Indonesia,Bangladesh,Brazil,Mexico etc etc

                  All the rubbish in Kmart can be made elsewhere as well.

                  • @techno2000: No one would make the crap products if no body ordered them and buy them. Isn't it up to the importer / seller who brought those crap products in? As long as they doing it and people keep buying, the crap products will be made, no matter by which countries. It actually gives people choices. You might be able to afford and happy to spend $100 for a nice kettle that might last for years, whereas others might only be able to afford cheap $10 kettle from Kmart even they might need to change it after a year. There are also high-quality products made in China too, like those expensive Smeg kettle over $300. Why don't you spent more to buy those expensive ones? You get what you pay for simple as that. But if you only want to spent little and keep blaming the products are crap, then i'm sure the problem is not from the product.

                  • @techno2000: Yup, all those places can make things, and some do so. Just because some are doesn’t mean the majority will be. All these “lower cost labour” countries must have had elements that count against them, otherwise China wouldn’t have been a major manufacturing country. Countries with a significant population have an inbuilt customer base and a Government that can regulate this purchasing power. China can afford some “downtime” by relying on their domestic market. What will be interesting is the manoeuvring that will happen whilst the world economies are pulling themselves out of the economic quagmire. Me, I’m not willing to write off China, just yet; if they start offering preferential trade deals and assistance the “principles” of some countries may waver. However, I do think there are interesting times ahead for all of us.

              @wcnmlgb: I will decide what to use and what not to use. What makes you think that you could go around telling people what they should and shouldn't use?! May it be an iPad or other cheap garbage that's more atypical of something coming from China, I've paid my money to acquire it, and nobody tells me what I could do with it.

              Just to make it clear to you CCP stooges, I will absolutely avoid anything made in China where have a choice, and at my own discretion. If a local product is available even at 4x the price, then I'll definitely choose local where I can!

              Go tell Xi Jingpig that.

              • -1

                @CocaKoala: Wow are you upset much? Where were you when the Americans pulled Holden out? Were you really supporting our manufacturing at 4x the price?

                • +1

                  @fuzor: I am not upset, but glad that we've now realised how reliant we've been on a hostile country for our manufacturing needs.

                  Were you really supporting our manufacturing at 4x the price?

                  Not sure what you're trying to insinuate here, but it's clear that you're basing it off of your imagination, and are attempting a straw-man argument. Firstly, I've been quite vocal about how the GM cheated Australian taxpayers out of our money with Holden, but that's entirely unrelated to this discussion and is a stupid thing to bring up here.

                  If America took our money, that doesn't mean another country should be allowed to do it. This is atypical of all commie appeasers, who say "Oh, look that other guy is really bad" when the lights are focused on them. Not very intelligent.

                • @fuzor: Also, it's not making any sense to compare a car to a face mask. But because you have done that, I will of course buy a locally made car at 4 times the price if the only alternative to it was a piece of garbage from China.

                  But thankfully we've several dozens of high quality cars to choose from that come from all over the world. Very different product to a mask.

            • @wcnmlgb: Mouse and keyboard made in Mars.

        Yeah man I'm sure tons of people are going to spend $40 on a mask to "support" local jobs

        • never know, you might be surprised…at least this starts making some changes

          Did you check the other links too for the price, or just felt like snapping?

    • I'm accepting order for masks. I'll take advantage of this situation by making these "locally" out of socks. only $15 each. How is that?

  • +7

    Ordered these with the socks I never got. These are pretty woeful and I'd stear clear. Only 2 layers, good for max 20 washes and aren't very wide.

    • Funny i got the socks, but no masks

    • +1

      I find that most (the LookSmart deal) are only 2 layers where as DHHS Victoria recommends 3 layers. Depending on how good the thread count of the material is then it might be a real false sense of security!

      • sense of security!

        that does seem to be the most important thing

    • I should've heeded your advice hidden amongst these lame jokes. These masks really are shithouse.

  • +3

    Does anyone know why it says "reusable up to 20 wash"? Does it mean it should be thrown out?

    • +8

      outer layer has been treated with HeiQ Viroblock to increase barrier protection

      probably the coating wears off after x amount of washes

    • -1

      Yeah bin after 20 washes.

      • What's with people wastefully binning textiles when they're no longer wearable? Reuse them as rags or store in a bag and recycle at H&M once the lockdown is over.

        • +1

          You really think H&M is recycling those things? Nope. It's all a front to look more green.

          • @Munki: I'm sure their recycling program isn't best practice, but what evidence do you have that they're not doing it at all?

          • @Munki: Do you know of another place that you know of/think does proper textile recycling?

      If you dont wash it, then its good to use forever.

                  As long as I understand the point, I don't see the purpose of correcting randoms in a comments section.
                  I'm not their parent! I have my own lil monsters to correct lol

                  • @FlatulentFrank: Because it’s a simple and very basic part of the English language which pisses off most with a brain. Same as to vs too vs two. It reflects very poorly on the writers intellect, and reduces the value of the content.

                    • @HelpMeiCantSee: Another thing that gets the grammar police all upset is when writers write writers when what they should write is writer's - it's an intellect thing :) Don't worry, been there, done that. It's nice to see I'm not alone. Glad to see its usage by others.

    • +4

      i feel like they just have to write that as a disclaimer… lol

      in the faqs it says
      Can I keep wearing the mask after the 20 washes?
      You can still wear it but the treatments on the mask are not supported after the 20 washes. For comfort and protection, it is recommended the mask is replaced once it reached 20 wash cycles.

      https://www.bonds.com.au/covid-19#anchor-point-1

      probs just wants your money after that … they have this material in their undies. they dont recommend you buy new pairs after 20 wash?

      • +11

        If it's like their socks, it wouldn't last 20 wash

        • Materials are properly the same as their socks

      • You can still wear it but the treatments on the mask are not supported

        What is the technical support number before your 20 washes are up?

      • It's probably because it has some sort of TGA approval (At least the packaging says so).

        You'd be surprised how few uses common items are rated for in industrial/medical environments.

    • +4

      More information about them are on the Bonds blog. Maybe worth posting in the main post OP?

    • +1

      Most masks are apparently only usable up to a number of washes - a supplier I was speaking to today said that the material that the filter layer is made of is quite sensitive.

      • -3

        material that the filter layer

        Someone said it is only 2 layers? Outside Viroblock, inside X - Temp. It is surprising we got the world population from 1bn at start of the century to 6 odd billion now without this stuff.

        Sounds like a circus of fancy chemicals to keep the machines of consumerism going.

        If you are operating in a medical setting I'd say different but when you are in lock down it isn't like you are going on a virus derby.

    Few points:
    - you can continue to wear it after 20 washes, they say the “virablok” technology is no longer effective
    - they’re actually pretty big and slip down quite easily. I’ve found them to be frustrating
    - they look like jocks turned inside out. I look like a creep.

      • they’re actually pretty big and slip down quite easily. I’ve found them to be frustrating

      Was that a condition you had prior to wearing the masks though? :P

  • bonds was selling a 3pk of these for $24.95, but its sold out
