I admit I do not have much knowledge on this front, so I would like to ask knowledge here from others for best options to reduce. While I know there is no perfect solution truly, what could be a good resource for reducing?

The GVS Elipse is a lower profile option that should have comparable performance to the 3m respirators. They offer both half and full face respirators as well.

    Yes there are lots of brands. The Elipse got a poor review on reddit a while back, but I haven't tried it myself.

    I have one. I used it quite a bit during COVID. I think 3m's respirators might flow a little better, and its easier to find their filters. I didn't have any issues with the seal or comfort on the GVS. And I appreciated the smaller profile. Not sure what the complaints were on rediit, but I like mine.

    The Dräger Explore 3300 or 3500 are also good options with replaceable filters. When I bought mine it was actually cheaper than the 3M mask, though I live in germany where the company is based and not in the US.
