A protective mask for sports use, in particular for skiing disciplines, comprises a front frame for the retention of at least one lens, a nasal support element extending along the perimetral profile of the frame in the nasal region, and also capable of surrounding with bearing contact the nasal region when the mask is worn on the face, the fit of the nasal support element being adjusted, by adaptation of the frame to the shape of the face in the nasal support region. The support element is structurally independent of the front frame and at least one appendage is mounted to be rotatable on the front frame, at the nasal support region, about an axis of rotation and also acting on the nasal support element, in order to displace the support relative to the front frame, the at least one appendage being reversibly locked in a selected angular position relative to the frame, about the axis, so as to improve the adaptation of the nasal support element to the shape of the nasal region of the face.
