Here is a brief discussion of “double-masking”.  

We have addressed the question of football helmets with full shields with and without gaiters and masks. Strategies for Aerosol Mitigation in a Football Competition 

We find that dry gaiters work well and wet gatiers are worse than no face covering for workouts and sports: Comparison of wet and dry gaiters with masks for emission mitigation 

Cloth masks and other commercial masks greatly reduce emissions from speaking: Examination of Face Masks and Face Shields for classroom teaching
