 A full gas mask that covers the face and eyes. Provides excellent protection from smoke, teargas, and other contaminants. It must be prepared before use. 

This is a light clothing item made of plastic, which covers 0% of your mouth and eyes, and which has no storage capacity. It barely occupies any space, encumbers you a bit, and will provide some warmth to the areas it covers.

It offers low protection against bashing attacks and low protection against cutting ones (that includes bullets), while offering low protection from environmental hazards.

It has no extra particularities.

This clothing item can be repaired, fitted (if appropriate) and reinforced via the mechanics skill, by using a soldering iron and plastic chunks.

Notes

Light smoke protection: 100%

Medium smoke protection: 100%

Heavy smoke protection: 100%

One of the best masks for protection in the game, as it protects from all manner of airborne gases: toxic gas, smoke, relaxation gas, and fungal haze. It also provides good protection against damage and is quite hard for many monsters to significantly damage, the only problem is that it is only able to be repaired with the soldering iron, which relies on mechanics instead of tailoring. It is best not to be worn in summer, as it's warmth can cause the player to overheat.
