After the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended wearing a cloth face covering, our experts researched nine face masks worth buying because of the fabric used and the protection each one offered. Since then, many retailers are producing their own masks to fill this need, but not all fabrics are created equal at filtering virus particles.
For example, retailers like Anthropologie, Casetify, and Disney have shifted their focus to mask making, providing more stylish options for when you’re out and about. It should be noted that none of these masks are medical grade and don’t offer the best protection compared to thicker cotton masks, though they do make good cloth face covering or can be used as a cover for a medical mask for some pizzazz.
Here are 15 retailers that are now selling masks—and whether their face coverings are actually worth buying based on fit and fabric type.
1. Old Navy Credit: Old Navy
These fun patterns come from left over fabric.
Old Navy recently released a line of face masks in both children and adult fits. The children sizes are currently backordered until June 7, while the adult sizes are completely sold out. These masks are sold in packs of five and are made of excess fabrics of Old Navy’s popular items—a.k.a. it will be a surprise for what patterns you get. Each mask is made of 3-ply woven 100% cotton poplin, which is breathable and offers a few layers of protection, which is good for daily use or as a covering.

These adorable Disney patterns are currently on pre-order.
Yes, you can now purchase adorable masks featuring your favorite Disney characters like Baby Yoda, Mickey Mouse, Frozen, Black Panther, and more, which are currently only available for pre-order at the Disney Store. Even better, Disney will be donating one million cloth face masks to those in underserved and vulnerable communities across the U.S. that will be distributed and $1 million of the proceeds to MedShare. Each comes in a themed pack of four and follows the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommendations for non-surgical face masks, per Disney.

These boho-chic masks are available from several brands.
The store that offers your favorite boho-chic clothing is also offering a selection of boho-chic face masks. The masks are made by brands like Sanctuary, Amadi, and Bunglo and start at $14. Masks vary in pattern, fit, layers of fabric, and the option for a filter pocket, but we recommend choosing the ones with more layers for optimal protection.

These popular masks sell out fast.
Madewell’s masks were so popular that they immediately sold out when they were first released. Available in the similar plaid and houndstooth patterns, these masks are made with three layers of cotton and an included filter. Since each mask is constructed with leftover fabric, pattern and stock is limited.
