I have surgical N95 ASTM Level 3 masks that are REALLY tight fitting. I prefer the slightly less protective N95 masks.
When I worked at a super maximum security prison, I was fitted for an N99 mask. Had to go through testing to make sure everything was sealed around my face.
All that said, I can't wear an N95 mask when I'm walking up hill exerting myself....can't get enough air. Looking for a good exercise mask that filters out pollens, dust and molds that I can wear outside when there is no one around. My allergies are getting worse. This summer I wore a mask while launching our boat and kept it on until we were far from shore. I did fine most days. There were a few days I started sneezing violently. It was always when the wind had picked up and was probably blowing pollens from shore. Kind of a PITA.....I have one mask on and carry an N95 mask in case I come in contact with other people.
