The non-medical cloth masks can fit comfortably over the wearer's face, showing off the image that took the Internet by storm earlier in the year: Baby Yoda sipping on a mug of coffee. The masks arrive in small, medium and large, meaning fans of all ages can support their favorite character. In addition, these masks are equipped with multiple layers and adhere to the guidelines presented by the CDC.
Disney's face masks are also available in Mickey Mouse and the Incredible Hulk iterations.
