Virus masks serve to protect the wearer and those in proximity, and are now compulsory in many countries, especially in confined spaces like trains, but social distancing is important to maintain as well. This is why I have designed the Short Leg Social Distancing Virus Mask.

Not only will it effectively protect the wearer (and others) from breathing in (and out) any pesky particles, but it keeps other folk at a respectful distance. Add in the replaceable heel filter, and it becomes something you will wonder how you lived without in the pandemic.

Wear it on the train, or even on a pilgrimage to the Whitehouse, and use one squinting eye to stare between any pair of toes at other passengers and visitors to add to its effect.

Short Leg Social Distancing Virus Mask comes in a range of styles and ethnic types.
Inevitable deluxe version features dexterous motorised toes.

A tad bit much to hang on your ears, no doubt?

High fashion needs to find a way to integrate masks and eyewear.

To make you happy, I added an extra component to the supporting harness that fastens around the back of the head.

...because that makes it extra half-baked. [+]

Yeah. They think "Ugh, a foot fetishist."

Bowing to use those floor level, no touch lift interfaces is going to strengthening.

You're so practical. [wjt]
