The mask was a hit at the Masquerade, and I have to say, the mesh on the mask was a life saver, because it lets your face breathe, allowing you to wear it for much longer. It has a little bit of heft, but it fits and stays comfortable on your face. The ribbon to tie around your head is a little chinsey, but it wasn't a problem for me. The tip of the nose is sharp, so you may want to dull it a little bit. Or you can use it as a weapon.
