Title: I can't hear you...
Review: Great product.I bought this for 2 reasons:1. To reduce noise during air travel.2. For hearing protection while shooting.It succeeds in both, and is a big improvement over the various solutions I had been using.While flying, I like noise protection to reduce the ambient airplane noise (not to mention the noise of chatty passengers) while I am reading. I fly a lot, but do not like using any type of electronic noise reduction for many reasons, including the restriction on using electronic devices below 10,000 feet. My solution up to this point was an expensive set of Israeli-made SilentEar earplugs that were supposedly really good, but just would not stay put in my ears despite trying several sizes. This product fits my ears *perfectly* and results in a quieter environment, so will be coming with me on all future flights.While shooting, I have been using various brands of ear muff style hearing protection, including ones from Stanley, Beretta and Browning. Besides being bulky, nearby gunfire still sounded LOUD. But with these, the sound is now tolerable, and I don't have to fill up 1/4 of my range bag with big bulky ear muffs.You get 3 sets in this package, which is nice and very good value. The only cautionary note I will add is that in each set I got, the yellow cord connecting the two ears was tied in such a tight knot that I almost could not get it apart. For a moment I actually considered *cutting* the knot, thinking that it was not part of the cord, but quickly realized that doing so would cut the cord between the 2 earpieces. You can untie the little knots - if you have patience. [Update: For some time now, they have come tied with knots that are much easier to untie, unlike the earlier version, thus no longer an issue.]I like them! Sorry, what was that you said???UPDATE ONE YEAR LATER:It puzzles me why a few people have had such trouble with these and think they don't work. Unlike what a few others have reported, these work really well for me at the range, and in fact when I have tried wearing ear muffs over the top of these I really can't detect any further reduction in sound.For anyone who has had trouble or think they don't work, be sure that you have inserted them properly and completely. As the instructions indicate, you have to pull out on your ear lobe with one hand while inserting them into your ear with the other - you can't just push them in with one hand because they won't go in far enough to fully seal the ear canal. When properly inserted, you *will* notice the difference - a feeling that I can best describe as being "cut off" from the world. If you don't feel that, they are not inserted properly and you will NOT get anywhere close to the level of sound reduction that these can provide.Anyway, these work just great for me, and I am about to order more.UPDATE, several years later:I keep buying more, because I am concerned about my hearing, and these help a lot. If you don't do anything around noise, you won't need these, but most of us do.My latest use, which perhaps negates my original title a bit, is to wear while out on my side-by-side ATV, which is quite noisy. I keep several pairs of these in the vehicle, to wear myself, for my spouse to wear, and for guests. While they greatly suppress the noise of the ATV, my spouse and I actually *can* easily hear each other while wearing these. Seems perfect.I've seen a lot of silly comments by others here, who say that:* They are uncomfortable. True, you won't want to wear them all day. That would be true of any hearing protection.* The state of California says that they are "known to be carcinogenic." Perhaps true if you eat them, but half of the things I have purchased lately have come with such a warning. I live in the real world, not California.* They don't work. Well, they do for most people - especially if you insert them correctly.

Title: I prefer these over the foam plugs
Review: Pros:1. Comfortable fit without being itchy2. Cord is lightweight, durable3. Works as expected to cut down the intensity of noiseCons:1. The cord transmits rubbing noises of the cord to the earplugI use these ear plugs mostly when I'm in the garage running my woodworking tools and/or the shopvac, but also at the range. Like every other ear plug or earmuffs I've ever tried, this isn't "soundproof" as in you won't hear anything, but it just cuts down the intensity of the sound. Putting them on is the equivalent of being able to just turn down the noise and everything being muffled.These triple flanged earplugs have a 26 dB NRR. These plus ear muffs at the range equals excellent hearing protection. And unlike the foam plugs, which inevitably start to itch my ear canal, I haven't noticed that kind of irritation with these, even after extended wear in the shop or the range. I also haven't noticed any fatigue either. Ear canals aren't sore or irritated afterwards.The cord is nice because when I'm in the shop, I just take out the plugs and let them dangle around my neck and know exactly where they are. Unlike taking off the ear muffs and trying to find a clean place for them. It's also easy to store them by hanging by the cord on a hook. And the soft rubbery material is pretty easy to wipe off and keep clean between uses.The only down side would be if you're using these plugs for silence, such as for studying, the cord will transmit any sound from rubbing against your shirt, etc, and would probably drive you crazy in a quiet environment. In the shop or the range, I don't notice it so much due to all the racket.

Title: Overall great product
Review: These work very well for me. Easy to put in and remove and are very comfortable. Easy to clean and overall, the quality is good. I use them for the range and they are convenient for when I grab and go (my range is on my property) and do not necessarily need my earmuffs depending on the caliber I choose for that day.

Title: Comfortable!
Review: I use these when I'm at the indoor range combined with my walkers ear muffs. I have to double up to really protect my ears when training at the indoor range. These are very comfortable, fit well, and are easy to clean. I highly recommend.

Title: Not the most comfortable for sleeping
Review: I bought these earplugs for drowning out the sounds of noisy housemates to go to sleep at night. They drown out noise pretty well and I do like that they have a cord so you can't lose them. However, I stopped using them because they were pretty uncomfortable and made my ears sore. I found foam earplugs are much better for comfort as they do not make me sore.

Title: They work
Review: Reasonable, lightweight, and they work. I've not done a good job of protecting my hearing over the years and am trying to be more conscious of protecting same. I wear these around my neck during the day and they weigh absolutely nothing, and can be placed in my ears in seconds. Glad I purchased.

Review: Loves these little things. I work around aircraft and these are perfect for the job. They are small enough that I can wear these with the peltor over ear defence aswell so doubling up on protection. Good choice of colour, that is if you do drop them being a hi viz yellow they stand out. Has the plastic cord that joins them together. Soft fins cushion inside the ear with a good seal. Good quality from peltor.Would buy again but these will last a while.

Review: This product actually exceeded my expectations. I found them comfortable to wear while sleeping and they blocked out the sound well. It wasn't total silence but that's not what I was looking for, and it did block out the majority of my friend's snoring on a trip so I could sleep. Also a great price and seems to be good durability. I thought the cord would get in the way or would be uncomfortable, but I didn't notice it at all and liked that it helps to not lose the ear plugs. Would recommend and buy again.
