10 Pair Corded Reusable Ear Plugs for Shooting Range Ear Protection for Gun Range - Hunting Ear Plugs for Construction Firearm Ear Protection Shooting Gun Hearing Protection Earplugs Corded

I'm not a fan of over ear earmuffs as I find them uncomfortable. I typically just use foam earplugs and they work fine. Took a chance at these and I will say they are very comfortable, they insert into the ear easily, and they block sound great. The cord is nice as well, you can take them out and just hang them on your neck until you're ready to use them again. Great price and great quality!

These are the best budget ear plugs I've ever used. They're comfortable and block sound well.

Works to reduce mower sounds.

These ear plugs are super handy. They rest around your neck and offer easy, quick access. I use them while working with dogs, inside. There are a few poochies that have piercing barks which can be painful...especially over 50yo and years of abuse to the ears. (90's grunge, lots of it... "live"!) These plugs block about 40% at most, basically the painful sounds. But definitely do not drown out the barking completely. I can still have an up-close conversation.Comfort: Yes, they are comfortable. But like most things, they take figuring out. It's likely that your ear canals are shaped differently on each side, so work with the flow, not against it. Follow?Serious work: shooting, machines of all types, construction, etc., these ear plugs will help in a pinch, but I wouldn't make a habit of it. I could see using these for a long day on the range under proper ear covers to be able to still have a conversation after removing primary covers while still maintaining secondary protection from errant sounds around you.Note: if you push them in to the limit they will block more decibels, but then they get uncomfortable. (no fear of getting them stuck with the built-in 'handle' :) And be careful with ear wax... I'm not a Dr, so all I can say is 'use your brain'.

Work great.easy to use.

I volunteer with an organization that builds affordable housing. Of course, most of what they let the volunteers do is relatively non-precision work, preparing for the drywallers, electricians, plumbers, and hvac folks. Fortunately, we get to use power tools. But the downside of that is that nailguns, for example, are LOUD. And not only that, but they are LOUD! REPEATEDLY! The first time I helped out with nailing up furring strips (wood nailed into concrete block, so that the drywall can be screwed into wood, and to allow space for insulation) my ears were ringing extra loudly for the rest of the day. This was more than my regular tinnitus—it interfered with my hearing for hours. So, earplugs are necessary. The organization I volunteer with supplies foam disposable earplugs, which are fine, but inconvenient. These silicone plugs are a good fit, after some initial adjustment. They reduce the noise to a manageable level, without preventing hearing necessary sounds, like instructions or warnings. The braided lanyard is about 24 inches (say, about 60cm), which is long enough to loop through the back adjustment strap of my baseball cap and still reach my ears with enough play so that I can turn my head without dislodging the earplugs. Each pair comes in a sealed plastic bag, so I can keep a spare in my pocket. The silicone plug is attached to the lanyard with a friction-fit aglet (like on the end of a shoelace), so if I didn’t want to keep the string, I could remove it. I suppose that if the lanyard got caught in a power tool the lanyard would detach from the plug, even if the plug stayed in the ear, but I don’t think it is good practice to wedge the plug quite that tightly into the ear. This set of earplugs should last me a long time, unless the other volunteers keep asking for my spare. If I need more, I will buy another set or two of these.

comfortable for my ear. better than the foam ones we have at work. with the string can keep track of them alittle easier. i let them hang around my neck til i need them? gave a pair to coworker who talked me into trying these.

I bought these to help reduce the high decibel noise from my electric hedge trimmer and leaf blower/vacuum. The design allows for the ear plug to fit snug into any ear size. There is a long enough handle/nub that allows one to safely insert and remove. The string is a nice feature so you can remove them and not easily lose them. However, these are just average in reducing noise. It helps, but not as much as I was hoping. My bluetooth ear buds do a better job at cutting out the noise, but my earbuds cut too much noise and is dangerous when you can't hear people/kids yelling at you. These allow one to hear people talking to you. For a point of reference, I can hear myself softly snap my finger with these on. I can hear the clicking of my computer keyboard when I type. The other issue is that when the string slides and rubs around your neck you can hear it in your ear, and kind of annoying. So, if you were hoping to completely block out noise so you can sleep, look elsewhere. Because I used one, I don't feel it's right to now return it. That's gross.
