My 3M dual filter has less effort drawing air than a N95 dust mask. If I am moving fast I will be gasping for air when using a N95. I have some used N95's here but if I did not and needed to go shopping, I'd wear my 3M mask.

I don't give a rats rump if anyone does not like it. It tends to keep them farther away from me.

Yesterday, wife and I were masked up in our Kroger store shopping during 'Senior's Hour' and a young women in her early 30's was walking real close to me and my wife. She should not have been in the store yet but there she was. So the third time she got too close she bumped me reaching for an item behind me, I started fake sneezing and coughing. She BACKED WAY THE **** OFF.

But I also had issues wearing a Military M-17 gas mask but I wore one when required.
