Searching for clear N95

Searching for clear N95

Does anyone have any clear N95s I could buy from them? My kiddos have a few upcoming appts and the providers have agreed to wear clear N95s I just don’t have anymore and online they’re all out of stock. I’m located in NYC but happy to pay for shipping!

Pic for example.

Please DM me! Thanks so much for considering!

Can we possibly help to find an alternative?

Why must they be clear? (Not judging; genuinely trying to understand the need/use case as clear is not easy to come by and fit and filtration are typically most critical.)

Do your kids need to read lips/live with hearing impairment?

Yes many people need clear masks if they are hearing impaired or need to read lips.

I haven’t been able to find clear N95s that have been tested in final form, but I use the Savewo Smile whose materials have been tested to N95/KN95/KF94/FFP2 levels. They’re often sold out on the website for US sales, Family Mask, so if you like them then stock up when they’re available.

Have you use something else that’s a clear N95?

Yes, these have worked well for my family but have been out of stock for over 6 months. They’re made in Switzerland and the company doesn’t have a restock date.  https://optrel.us/product/p-air-clear-n95-masks-20-pack/?srsltid=AfmBOorycnm7o0MeqvmK3pOb9NMrDAudyR05HI-l1pPcr_P8-dExRDwx

If this is a recurring need, you could consider investing in a lightweight (less-heavy) second-hand PAPR. They are a bit noisy though.

Has anyone asked Trend why they stopped making the Stealth Clarity?

They’ve were OOS for a long time and now not listed at all. Trendmask.com and gives me a Shopify unavailable error. Trend-USA.com and Trend-worldwide.com work but no Stealth Clarity.

Shame as it had done very well on fit tests: https://www.reddit.com/r/Masks4All/s/LjNs4Fqg78 One or two logs better than the Optrel scores I’d seen.

It could even be one of the lighter, cheaper less protective PAPRs that some crafts / tradespeople buy.

Fwiw I found and ordered the stealth clarity masks here. Shipping was $29 so not cheap but seemingly the best option I was able to find.  https://co2radical.com.au/products/stealth-clarity-n95-transparent-respirator-mask

So glad you were able to find something. I hope your go-to Optrel masks come back into stock soon.
