The breathing system includes an elastic, non-porous body housed within an outer protective shell. The body terminates at its forward end in a protective cap and an air inlet passage and at its inner face in oral and nasal cavities. An air filter is disposed in the body and a mouthpiece, including a bite block, is provided for communicating filtered air into the individual's mouth. The bite block has converging surfaces for biasing the mask toward the individual's face when the individual bites down on the block. A hood attached to the mask surrounds the individual's head and receives exhaled air through exhalation ducts communicating between the mouthpiece and the hood.
