I'd wear one. Not for tznius, of course. It would probably be considered to be compromising on tznius. But it would mean not having to talk to people. Nobody needs to know who you are anyway... Though I guess the same effect could be achieved with a mask, sunglasses and a different sheitel.

Where I live, people would just assume I'm a Muslim stranger. A bear costume would raise more questions.

Those who know you can recognize you by your walk.

If you want to avoid talking to others, maybe you can wear earphones or airpods and pretend you are listening to music and can't hear them.

I hate masks in general but this is the only reason I tolerate them. I love being anonymous. No one recognizes when I'm out and about in my mask. I think I would find a burka suffocating.

I like masks in winter. The realfeel was 15 degrees and I neglected to bring a scarf. No prob, my double-masked face just laughed at the weather.
