IIDA HOSIERY, which manufactures socks and women's innerwear in Saga Prefecture, has developed the "Air Mesh Summer Knit Mask" with a special double structure. Sales have begun on their website.

IIDA HOSIERY, celebrating its 100th anniversary, has developed a double-structured knit mask designed for easy breathing as a measure against heatstroke.

The "Air Mesh Summer Knit Mask" features a three-dimensional structure for easy breathing, with a mesh fabric on the outer side. The area around the mouth is a flat surface that is gentle on the skin, and by further twisting the regular cotton yarn, it achieves a crisp texture and a smooth feel. The inner part of the double structure is lined with pile fabric, which increases the surface area without hindering breathability, contributing to reduced droplet expulsion. Furthermore, using the included knit filter enhances the droplet expulsion reduction effect.

In addition to the regular size, three types are available: a smaller size for upper elementary school students and a children's size for lower elementary school students. They are currently on sale on the company's website.
