K&N washable air filter
#8
A paper filter has a limited number of 'holes', which are clogged by dirt etc. which is why it becomes less effective over time. A fibre filter has far more holes, though they are individually smaller, so even when the same number are blocked by dirt, there are far more still available to pass the air through.

The other difference is that a holes on a fiber filter are blocked but not clogged, so they are much easier to clean. So no, it is not fizziks, it is physics.
