Our mission is to design and produce the highest-functioning technical outdoor face masks in the world.
Innovate:
Our 2-piece concept is totally unique, and means that our masks move with the two parts of the human head. This prevents blocked-breathing, wetness, and ice build-up.
Make faceGlove accessible:
Our masks integrate with the stretch-tubes and balaclavas everyone already uses (easy to use). We were also able to price faceGlove affordably at $27-$29, even after making them in the US (easy to get).
Make gear custom:
The faceGlove mini has a thin, polypropylene-coated wire sewn into the bottom edge, that allows the mask to mold to the contours of every unique face. The faceGlove TS uses thermo-moldability to get a prefect, custom fit.
Moving forward, we recognize that many mask solutions are required to meet the needs of diverse environments, so we’re designing masks tailored to each.
Spread an important message:
Although, cold is the obvious threat in winter, sun-exposure is the sneakier one. Our company is committed to illuminating the health risk of sun exposure and innovating in face protection against skin cancer.
Be thoughtful:
Sustainability is, and will always be, a guiding principle in our business, and we make green improvements as we can afford them. For example, 100% of our prototyping material, and a portion of our production material comes from other manufacturers’ scrap, and the unusable ends of their large fabric rolls. Dealing with small pieces slows down production and raises our costs a bit, but knowing we are able to make something useful out of something certainly bound for the landfill makes us feel warm and fuzzy. US manufacturing, and repurposing scraps are just a couple examples of how think.
Be loyal:
Our aim is exceptional loyalty to our customers, as they have been exceptionally loyal to us.
