Mine "STACK" and are accessed by a right/left button in the clothing section.

See if there is a number next to the item and scroll to the next usable one.

ye but they are all the same low quality , i picked up a mask that was good, but i still have my broken one, even got one in other color, also badly broken. not the quality i saw on it when i picked it up.

Broken as in how?

Also, different gas masks all have the same view obstruction and resistance to gas. Only thing that changes is their appearance (e.g green or black with tinted lenses).

when i picked it up from the ground it said half gas resistance, in inventory it was less than 1/4

The gas mask isn't in your inventory like other items you can drop. Not sure.

That's leftover display bug within the game, where what clothing stat you see during pickup isn't the actual stat of that item.

Back in the day when GZ launched, almost all clothing items gave you some kind of resistance (gas, explosive, bullet, noise reduction, visibility reduction). Some time afterwards, clothing stats where changed where only few items give you minimal resistance. Stats were changed accordingly in Profile view and during pick up view as well, except some oversights (like the gas mask you picked up, which shows old stats).

Came here for this same issue. I keep finding black gas masks with high gas resistance, but the first one I picked up was green with very low resistance. No matter how many times I keep picking up higher-resistance (according to the displayed meter) masks, once it's in my inventory it's very low like the green one no matter what the selector is on. So.. A display bug.. So does that mean all gas masks are now the same and gas resistance can only increase through skill point allocation?

All gas areas in the game have been made considerably easier then they were at the launch. Now, it doesn't matter which one you go into (inside bunkers/houses), you HP drop is still about 1 HP per second. Armed with first aid kits, even the weakest one, you can survive in the gas without any gas mask whatsoever.

Before the dmg reduction of gased areas, there were some areas with gas that had far higher HP drop per second. I found few with 5 HP loss per second and one with 20 HP loss per second. The latter was extremely hard. I barely managed to run in, pick up the mission critical item and run out while constantly healing myself with 50HP first aid kits.
That was a nice challenge. Sadly, that area now has the common 1HP drop per second like every other gased area.
