Barely a month after celebrating its second anniversary, I once again have the opportunity to bring out the candles and some bubbles to celebrate the arrival of Frogmask cycling masks in the Decathlon cycling mask category. Finally on the market place from the distributor… While waiting for a physical listing in stores. Frogmask can therefore be ordered online via the Decathlon France and Belgium website (delivery within 48 hours) in the cycling masks section.
What will the listing of Frogmask cycling masks at Decathlon change?
Decathlon is the leading distributor of sports brands in the world with more than 1,000 stores in 59 countries and a turnover of 12 billion euros in 2019. In France, the brand has 329 stores and is notably the largest seller of bicycles in France, including the famous Rockrider.
For a very small brand of cycling masks like Frogmask, it is therefore the ideal place to make yourself known to users but also to other distributors who scrutinize what the leader does. Frogmask is already present online at Alltricks, Fnac and nature & découvertes but there are still many physical retailers to convince. Frogmask is not yet the size of Adidas!
The arrival of Frogmask cycling masks and their FFP2 filters at Decathlon is all the more excellent news since the brand currently has no in-house protection offer or from another brand. Frogmask will therefore be the only brand with real filtering power to the FFP2 standard available in the cycling masks section. Several stores have already come forward to find out how to offer them in their anti-pollution cycling masks section.
Why wear an anti-pollution mask in the city?
When cycling in the city or commuting , adult cyclists find themselves in the middle of traffic where pollution is most concentrated and therefore most harmful. Just as a helmet protects against impacts, a mask protects the respiratory tract. According to Public Health France, air pollution causes 48,000 premature deaths per year , or 9% of mortality in France. An anti-pollution bicycle mask is therefore an essential long-term protective bicycle accessory to filter dust and protect your nose and mouth from fine particles suspended in the air.
Presentation of the Frogmask anti-pollution bicycle mask brand
Frogmask is a brand of anti-pollution masks created at the end of 2020, dedicated to urban travel on 2 wheels (bicycle, motorcycle, scooter, scooter) or on foot. The masks can also be used for the ski . Handmade in France in the suburbs of Lyon, Frogmask masks are equipped with FFP2 filters which filter at least 94% of fine particles and airborne dust up to a size of 0.4µm.
The masks are available in 3 adult sizes (M, L and XL) to ensure the best seal regardless of the shape of your face. Indeed, it is impossible to ensure that the maximum amount of air inhaled is filtered when only one size of mask is offered. Some always passes through the sides, which makes the mask much less effective.
With the two nasal rods (one on the FFP2 filter and the other on the mask itself), Frogmask guarantees very low fogging on the glasses. In fact, it is the exhaled warm air that rises along the nose that creates condensation on the cold glasses lenses. There is none here.
The repositionable fastening system behind the neck prevents compression on the top of the skull, especially when wearing a helmet, and the support system on the ears just prevents the mask from falling when putting on a jet or modular motorcycle helmet.
Available in 5 colors (black, black & white, orange, blue and burgundy), you can match the mask to your outfit of the day because you can take care of your respiratory tract and your health while keeping your look!
My anti-pollution masks are shipped the day of the order and delivered within 48 hours by standard tracked letter to your mailbox. Delivery is free for mainland France. Each mask is delivered with an FFP2 filter included. The pack of 10 filters is sold separately.
