Seconded. If this is the one I got, then it comes with a second pleather piece. You can swap them between players and wipe them down with antiseptic. The pleather doesn't sweat like leather would and I really life the cloth. Since you're demoing on Friday, I'd recommend the $50 Amazon bundle (same thing but prime shipping. With the shipping from VR cover you're only missing out of maybe $14, but for expedient shipping...).
Oculus Rift Facial Interface (Standard Version) & Foam Replacement Set
That is just the cover that goes over the facial interface. In the other reply I just did I do not like them. They are a hassle to use and for me at least do not feel good. I like the PU leather foam that attaches to the facial interface that is included in the VR Cover basic set. Looks like that kit is $50 on Amazon. here. You can get the same set directly from their site for $36 since it is $29 then $7 for shipping.
Yeah, I sweat like Jimmy Dean's pet pig when I'm playing BS. We have a boatload of bandana's, and always make sure the overhead ceiling fan is on high. Additionally, we bought this:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MQZVF6K/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It came with 2, so the wife and I swap those out, and for friends we have them use the original (with a bandana too).
Seems to go a pretty good job.
As mentioned above, I had a HUGE problem with my headset fogging up until a got a "VR Cover." There has to be other brands out by now, but the one I ordered practically eliminated fogging completely. You do loose some FOV as the headset isn't quite as close to your face, but it allows enough air (especially if a fan is blowing at your face) to keep your face dry without drying out your eyes. https://www.amazon.com/Oculus-Facial-Interface-Replacement-Hygiene/dp/B01MQZVF6K/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1523557569&sr=8-2&keywords=vr+cover
Actually you wanna buy this one https://www.amazon.com/Oculus-Interface-Standard-Version-Replacement/dp/B01MQZVF6K/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1507640261&sr=8-3&keywords=vr+cover it comes with 2 a thin and thick. It's leather so it stays cool during long sessions and you can easily just wipe it clean.
I bought this after i bought just the gray fabric cover of which i got 2 for 20 bucks.
this is a better value i think for 50. (paid 42 cuz there was an open box).
in the box youll get 1 replacement plastic insert 2 foam pads that kind of Velcro on the insert, 1 think, 1 thin 1 gray vr pillow case like fabric thing.
also check their website. they may have a package there that you like better but i wanted just the puffier foam insert and just like 1 extra for demoing to a friend. i got to say i really like it. ive never used the vr without the gray cover, and that with the new inserts is very nice.
when you put the headset on put it on front to back or place on face and then bring the straps up and back. you dont want to slide the gray cover around. it fits on very nicely surprisingly. youll open it and be like "...banana blanket?...". and when i see ppl with the thing sitting on there head im like, nooo, the lens are greasy now.
This is the set I got. It is not 100% like the basic set as it came with a thicker perforated leatherette foam also. They do not even have a picture of that foam anymore on there making me think maybe it will become the current basic set on their website.
Hygiene will be an issue, nothing to do with trust. Some people sweat in sitting games. Some people are known to wear makeup on their face - in a variety of skin tones, sometimes with a bit of glitter! But, simply buy a waterproof VRCover and stock alcohol wipes (and make sure nobody wipes the lenses with them.) https://www.amazon.com/Oculus-Interface-Standard-Version-Replacement/dp/B01MQZVF6K/
The receptionist or whoever is closest will have to do a bit of tech support. Just make sure they get "training time" to enjoy VR themselves.
I was worried about that and I've been watching it. It hasn't been noticeable yet, but I expect it will become an issue. I actually held off posting pictures of this thing for a while because that's the last thing I want to address, and I expected I'd get the question here.
I've not found an easy way to create a standoff that can take pressure off the foam, yet -- there are some more complicated/intrusive ways to do it. Maybe I'll go there if I think of something clever or start having a problem.
I should note, I'm not using the stock "facial interface" - I'm mostly using this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MQZVF6K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_y2dDzbP1WTWN8
I can assume you are talking about the Hygiene set on Amazon? https://www.amazon.com/Oculus-Facial-Interface-Replacement-Hygiene/dp/B01MQZVF6K/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1538429079&sr=8-5&keywords=vrcovers
It is the same items as sold on their site. The kit gives you their interface, 2 leather covers, and their comfort cover. Not sure what else you are looking for or what else you're expecting? They work great.
Buy a new facial interface.
OR! Buy a 3rd party facial interface, like the VR Cover Hygiene Set
This is what I use - Oculus Rift Facial Interface & Foam Replacement Hygiene Set (you also mention it) https://www.amazon.com/Oculus-Facial-Interface-Replacement-Hygiene/dp/B01MQZVF6K/
​
It works pretty good and it's a synthetic "PU leather" surface so its easy to clean. Especially great for those intense fitness apps.
I don't know about the Comfort set, but if you're buying from Amazon I bought the Hygiene set.
https://www.amazon.com/Oculus-Facial-Interface-Replacement-Hygiene/dp/B01MQZVF6K
It comes with the "leather" interface replacement that makes it easy to wipe off and clean when letting others use it. I use it as my default interface
Amazon has 2 of their kits.
I'd buy an extra facial interface: https://www.amazon.com/Oculus-Interface-Standard-Version-Replacement/dp/B01MQZVF6K
And cut off the whole top section of it so that you get more air flow and less sweating.
