Consumer-level urban commute cycling experience: None of the filters are worth it when the tradeoff of heavier breathing, icky moistness, steaming-up glasses, etc, is all taken into account. Instead, get in the habit of nose-breathing. Snot is a damn good filter and it's self-changing when spent.

Mind you, fume filters do look cool.
