Few articles remain as ubiquitous – or as controversial – as masks. But they continue to help us protect others and ourselves from the highly contagious coronavirus. The latest mask maker to hit our inbox is Casupo, a company whose day job is goods made of rescue and sustainable leathers. (It’s named for the mountain range in Venezuela where Los Angeles-based founder Luz Zambrano went hiking as a kid.)
