Rare Bird London was born in early 2017 after vintage scooter enthusiast and Founder Kondrad decided to create his own stylish and comfortable alternative to the current pollution masks on the market. After years of riding on his daily commute through London, the need for a pollution mask was becoming ever more evident. RBL masks are designed to not only reduce the risk of air pollution with an air purifying filter but also protect the rider from the daily elements such as wind and rain. With designs using vintage and modern fabrics, the masks are not only functional but visually appealing with bags of style. Our collection uses fabrics suited to summer and winter, by making the most of light cotton and warmer, tweed, fabrics for the colder days. With World Health Organisation figures of air pollution deaths totalling 26,000 in the UK, and 4.2 million a year worldwide, the growing need for adequate protection, without compromising on style is indisputable.
