New Michigan Wolverines masks
Even more masks have been added.
Foco sets of 3- $25
2-pack reusable tech gloves (Foco) $17
3-pack from Amazon ($25)
Gaiter scarf from Foco ($15)
Gaiter scarf 2-pack from Amazon ($25)
No-touch keychains are now back in stock at MDen. $5.95
Champion has now joined the mask game. However at $12.95 for a single mask when you can get a good 3-pack for $25 is steep.
These ones aren't new but they're finally not on preorder anymore and are in-store on the shelves at MDen.
$25 3-packs at MDen. Highly recommend these. Incredibly comfortable and over time they will stretch to fit your face very well. So much so that my girlfriend and I have been trading mask designs after washes and the ones she's been wearing are smaller on me and mine are big on her.
Is there a better summary of America than people refusing to wear masks for *reasons* while companies pump out $13 masks?
Also TIL no-touch keychains exist. Strange times indeed.

Probably not, but I can't complain, I've made a killing off stocks and options the last 3 months. Businesses are going to take advantage of everything they can, might as well get in on the free money action.
Nobody came here to read about how much money you make.
Cool! Except, you know, how much wasn't the point. The point was that in the US businesses are going to capitalize where they can and there's a wave of free money right now regardless of your opinion on the ethics of it, so why not ride it?
I don’t know how no touch key chains work.
Can the virus only to go from a door handle to the keychain but not from the keychain to a finger?
Maybe more like masks, where it protects others from your germs? Smaller surface area? Who knows. It's got a bottle opener built in, though!
Another poster explained it when it was introduced-
You can use the hook on pull handles, & the rubber tipped point to press buttons. And the brass/copper material is naturally anti-microbial.
I actually like them and would not be opposed to getting one. And yes, they are made of anti-microbial material but it's not immediately anti-microbial, usually takes approximately 15 minutes to become so.
I have one, use it all day at work. We bought them for our employees, each person has at least 10-25 shared touch points every day, I probably interact with 40 common touch screens let alone other touch points. With less fingers on buttons, screens and doors, there is less risk and exposure, why are these concepts so hard for some people to grasp???
Something sure could get on your device but the surface area is significantly smaller than a fingertip or the palm of your hand grabbing a door handle so it’s a lot less likely. But yea, even though it’s exponentially better than touching something directly, we just shouldn’t use it at all because there’s a chance the virus can attach to it.
For the record, I didn’t suggest they shouldn’t be used. I also work from home and when I do go places where I know I’ll touch something I either use hand sanitizer Immediately or gloves I can throw away (like for a pump at a gas station). Those sound better to me than a keychain I would probably not clean all that often. The tone of your post came across as pretty condescending.
it works on the assumption you arent picking your nose and touching your eye with the keychain tip. ymmv
They only really work if used perfectly. What ends up happening, though, is people use the key and then they don't wash their hands as much. Plus, copper is not immediately antimicrobial. It can take hours to kill germs on the surface. Copper also loses its antimicrobial properties if it's not regularly cleaned.
Really, it's much better to just wash your hands and carry hand sanitizer.
Just like people and politicians (on both sides) will politicize everything, corporations are there to profit off of everything. That really summarizes modern America
Would you prefer the masks not be made?
Wolverbear will scare the virus away.
Put murderwolf on a mask.
The surfaces of copper and its alloys, such as brass and bronze, are antimicrobial. They have an inherent ability to kill a wide range of harmful microbes relatively rapidly. This is why they are selling brass keys/pulls.
University of Michigan: Corporations are bad and only care about money. Money money money for these 1% slimeballs.
also University of Michigan: Here are our branded $25 for 3 masks, and key chains, and scarves, and gloves! We’ve got it all for the covid conscious Wolverines.
Thanks, I hate it.
You’ll probably love this:
Izzo, Merchant, and Barnes Arico helped to unveil a new television public service announcement released by the state of Michigan, entitled “Ball’s In Your Court,” which promotes wearing face coverings/masks. While they will not attend the press conference, the video also features Michigan State football head coach Mel Tucker, Michigan football head coach Jim Harbaugh, and Michigan men’s basketball head coach Juwan Howard. This is an important issue for each coach, as safety is a top priority for them and their players, and a delayed or canceled season is obviously not ideal for their respective programs. The collective message from the head coaches is one of unity amongst the rival schools.
“We are all in this together — as one team, whether that is Maize and Blue or Green and White,” Howard said, via press release. “Wearing a mask, practicing social distancing, and washing your hands are easy steps to help us all succeed. Let’s all do our part to be safe and stay healthy.”https://www.theonlycolors.com/2020/7/15/21325648/balls-in-your-court-psa-izzo-tucker-merchant-gov-whitmer-urge-michigan-residents-to-wear-masks
Sadly since I live in a Columb, er....Flavortown, this would actually the rare case where I am less safe for wearing this mask around. :(
Great job! Thank you
Why do all the sites that have the truth that somehow evades all us sheep always look like they were made in 1999 via MSPaint? My MySpace looked better than this dribble...
And my corona hellscape is complete. WD apparel threads for how to show your love of UM during a pandemic. I swear man, if you ever went to prison, you would use your precious internet time to push UM branded shower sandals.
