the mesh mask is from hard steel mesh not like the soft ones it took me a while to figure out how to keep the ears protection up there are some rubber bands with clip which you need to clip for tactical helmet if you are without tact helmet dont know how to use it. but little bit of stitching for the strap will do the job for without helmet. it doesnt fit with large goggles for airsoft only with airsoft glasses like bolle cobra otherwise the mask is nice and very solid metal mesh
