The safe-scarf is made using soft breathable stretchy fabric for ultimate comfort, inside the mask you can find a fabric pouch for the mask pad to sit inside. Once the mask pad is in place the snood can be pulled over the top of the head and adjusted with the toggle to ensure that the mask pad covers your nose and mouth comfortably, when not in use the toggle can be released and the scarf adjusted to sit around the neck without causing discomfort.
