AirTouch F20 strap discomfort

Post by puglover333 » Wed Sep 19, 2018 3:12 pm

I have reluctantly been trying to find a FFM that works for me. I had been using the P10, but over the last few months I’ve started having a lot of mouth leaks.

The AirTouch mask fits relatively comfortably, but the straps are really bothering me. The edge of the straps are on the hard side. I’m overweight and the edges end up digging into me - enough that it wakes me up. I’ve tried putting fleece strap covers on and putting a sock under the straps. Neither worked.

Any other ideas? Thanks
