Trade Korea have a superb collection of fashion gas masks, from half masks to full head gear. The children's masks are both cute and disturbing, but worth a look.
There is something darkly interesting about the innocence of a child wearing an object of war. There are so many images from WW2 for babies gas masks also, which are really interesting, but it is the more modern masks that appeal now. Adding this gas mask look to children's fashion is definitely morbid, but also thought-provoking. Many kids that grew up during the wars were subject to conditions where masks were mandatory to save lives. Luckily, the youth who wear these fashionable backpacks don't have to worry about such issues.
