When using a glasses chain as a mask holder, the goal isn't to make it easier to take off in public—it should stay on when you're out and about and you wouldn't want to contaminate the inside by walking around with it exposed. (And be sure to wash it after every trip outside). But when you're in your own space, a chain makes it much easier to keep your mask handy. Alison Freer wrote for The Strategist that getting a glasses chain for her mask was one of the best purchases she's made in months.
"I keep my mask chain around my neck all day long, even when I’m just at home," says Freer. "It’s saved me on more than one occasion when a delivery person rang the doorbell, needing a signature for a package—and it’s an elegant-looking accessory to add to your current stack of layered necklaces."
In order for a glasses chain to work for your mask, it must utilize clips, hooks, or some other type of hardware that opens so you can attach it to your mask. Chains with just a rubber loop won't cut it. If you don't have a chain on hand to repurpose, there are tons of brands you can shop instead. Browse some options below.
