I’ve tried a variety of earplugs, foam, wax, etc., but nothing blocked enough sound; I’m a very very light sleeper, and with my wife doing early shifts and getting up at 4 am, I was desperate. With my new plugs I’m finally getting a full night sleep. This has been lifechanging for me.

I get an irritation from the foam ear plugs in the drug store. These ear plugs are soft material and I have no problem with allergies to the material. I have sensitive skin.

I’m a music teacher and I teach in a loud echoing drama space. I needed to get some hearing protection as the noise level really bothers me. I’m also a brass player and I often play in front of the percussion so these fitted music plugs are perfect for both situations.
