As COVID Cases Rise in Texas, Female-Led Company Fights Back with Zipper-Mouthed Face Mask Design

While Texas has been slammed with COVID-19 infections, three Houston-area women are trying to combat the spread by encouraging people to wear masks. Jewelry designer Madison Herington, nutritionist Sarah Cordill and medical researcher Haley Manley teamed up to start Shut Your Mouth, a company that produces facemasks with a novel design feature: A zipper.

“Need to sip? Open the zipper! Need to hydrate? Unzip! We want to allow people to keep their faces covered, stay safe, be responsible,” the company writes.

The $35 masks come in a variety of patterns, and judging by availability, have become a hit; a number of patterns are currently sold out.
