Off Ear Comfy Mask Strap for Boat Style Masks

Please use these designs at your own risk. Thank you! I wear BOTN KF94 Masks to work. These are the South Korean equivalent to N95 masks for use by the general population. They provide 95%+ protection from airborne particles such as covid19. These masks have a two fold design and are often referred to as boat style masks. My co-worker Aaron Collins has a Youtube Channel discussing and testing protective masks such as these. It is very informative. My ears got sick from wearing the over-ear mask straps so I took inspiration from the 3M respirator straps and designed a custom strap to fit this particular model of mask from BOTN. I also designed a generic clip for any boat style mask, you would definitely want to check to make sure this clip works on your mask to confirm it holds well enough. The clip may not be wide enough for other style masks such as the standard surgical mask. I drew further inspiration from Skip Meetze (https://www.youmagine.com/skipmeetze)'s Comfortable Head Strap for reusable respirators and medical masks (https://www.youmagine.com/designs/comfortable-head-strap-for-reusable-respirators-and-medical-masks)
