09:00, 08 Jan 2021

It’s fair to say a lot of things happened in 2020 that none of us were expecting. Had you asked anybody to pen a script for how the year would go, not one single person would have been imaginative enough to predict a global pandemic and the way in which it brought normal life to a screeching halt.

With a new way of living, the face mask has become an everyday item. While in 2018 the face protector market value came in at £24billion, that figure is expected to skyrocket to £37billion by 2025, according to Statista. So, if face masks are here to stay, you need the best, especially for when you are exercising. Here are some of our favourites…

Designed to be worn all day while being active, it’s fully washable making it more environmentally friendly than those masks you have to chuck after wearing once.

Price: £26
