Product Details

The Filters

Each La Mascherina comes with 2 detachable and washable filters that are easily swapped in and out.

They're easy to clean and keep looking fresh and new

These washable filters are made of molded foam and Thermo-welded with a durable black sports fabric.

Functional Practicality in Smart Design

La Mascherina is designed to have an open-back pocket where the filter slips in easily and is held in place by its thoughtful design. This pocket also allows you to use your own 3rd party filter that might fit!

The Earloops

The earloops are the same kind of leather material and color as the mask. They are designed to be adjustable by removing them and reinserting the stud through a different hole on the earloop.

These are interchangeable! Buy two or more different-colored masks so you can easily swap out earloops for a unique style!

La Mascherina has been successfully tested in the relatively small fashion world of Manila and we're ready to bring it to the world in limited numbers. We need your backing!

About…

The Original Prototype

The origin of the mask started out as something for personal use by founder and chief designer,  Dr. Rommel Bautista.

He just wanted some protection from pollution whenever he rode his motorcycle.


Founder and Chief Designer at Fino Leatherware, Dr. Rommel Bautista.

He insists that it still is meant to be for motorcycle riders and we continue to develop for that market.

Enter Coronavirus (COVID-19)

When the Coronavirus pandemic hit, the initial prototype mask found a more general purpose.

We started experimenting with the different colors seen here, and having close photographer friends, we asked them for a professional shoot of these prototypes in the new colors to give people an idea of the different possibilities.

EASY TO CLEAN! 

  • Remove washable filter and wash/soak the filter for 1 to 2 minutes in a bowl of water with a small amount of liquid hand soap or shampoo
  • Rinse and squeeze out the excess water then air-dry
  • For the leather material, use Lexol or other popular leather care products
  • Apply leather conditioner occasionally to keep the leather supple

DISCLAIMER: FINO makes no claims that La Mascherina is bio-equivalent or a direct replacement for N-95 certified masks for frontline care of COVID-19 positive patients. However, fashionably sensible users may consider it a stylish replacement for cloth or surgical masks.

Traction & Accomplishments

Fino La Mascherina in the Media

Field testing La Mascherina got the attention of a few journalists and has been featured in publications such as Forbes magazine and Business World.

How We're Different

About Fino Leatherware

Fino Leatherware has been in the leather industry for many years. We design and create our own leather bags and accessories.

Up until this year, we had only offered our products in our retail boutiques found in the high-end shopping malls of Manila, Philippines and have never been available online or anywhere else in the world.

After the COVID-19 pandemic hit, we thought it would be a perfect opportunity to expand on the original mask idea to provide a fashionable and safe alternative to a product that everyone needs in these times, while achieving our long-term goal of going global, starting with this beautiful leather mask.

Thanks for checking us out, and we hope to see you in our post-campaign survey!
