Facemask structure improvement
Abstract
A facemask structure improvement including a mask body and two ear bands (20) which can be loops or ties, with a first plurality of folds (11) extending horizontally on the mask body, and a plurality of second folds (13) extending vertically. Thereby, the mask can be stretched both vertically and horizontally, in a way that the mask body becomes more three-dimensional, fitting more firmly to the contours of a wearer's face, and providing more comfort and convenience than the conventional facemasks.
