Maybe try wearing something like that that doesn't constrict breathing at all, but still meets the completely non-medical, non-physics-based mask edict from your State's fuhrer?

No matter what you put over your face it is going to restrict breathing.

A scarf is less restricting than a mask but it has other detrimental qualities.

A scarf will absorb moisture from your exhalations and will become more restrictive over time due to that moisture. The scarf will also become a bacterial culture due to the moisture and warmth due to exhaled breath. So, your inhaled air will have an extra high bacterial count possibly causing illness.

I am sure you have also heard about the rise in facial acne due to mask wearing.

Simply put any mask wearing by active athletes is putting their health at risk unnecessarilyl.

Well just about any mask will do that, especially a filter one with proper seal.

The best one I've been able to find is something like this. Even had a lady at Costco stop me and ask where she could get one!

I like that

It should minimally restrict your breathing

I don’t think it would cause your glasses to fog up either.

I think it would provide about as good protection as the cheap paper mask as well.

Doesn’t restrict breathing at all! No glasses fog, similar protection to everything else, really. Which is not much to none.

I’ve had one place that didn’t let me wear it, and that was a random bar/brewery in North Dallas, that was freaking out about getting fined by TABC when I first walked in with no mask at all. They were crazy strict and on top of making everyone not sitting at a table wear a mask over their nose and everything :/
