3M H10A Peltor Optime 105 Over the Head Earmuff, Ear Protectors, Hearing Protection, NRR 30 dB,Black, Red

These hearing protection work great for shooting at the range. The sound reduction is excellent and they are relatively comfortable for something that fits snug on my head. Price is great, they are about half the price of my electronic ear protection. The price is so good that I got a couple of pairs for in the house. My only issue is that the muffs are a bit wide and it interferes a bit when I am shooting a rifle. I still use them when shooting the rifle, so I am getting used to the size.Overall these are excellent hearing protection and I will buy them again.

We had an older pair of these before they went to the glossy black casing, and have used those for the better part of the last decade or more, and they worked amazing. The reason for getting new ones is heck- after over a decade and just starting to have the surround padding for the ears get a little hard and torn, they are a steal of a deal for the price you pay to protect your hearing.The work we do:Table Saws, Band Saws, Power Sanders, Planers, Leaf Blowers, Chainsaws, Rifle and Shotgun Shooting (more fun, less work...), Lawn Mowers, Jack Hammers. Basically anything construction- these have been used for- even the occasional night when my dad with poor hearing cranks up the tv to hurting volumes to my sensitive hearing- I have nothing to say but good things.They work amazing at deadening outside sound, and for me- I can still hear people talking but the really noise-damaging sounds are drastically cut down. If you want to listen to music with these, I highly recommend a pair of sound-isolating ear buds, and NOT the iPhone/iPod standard ones. When I do this- my volume is nearly kept at the minimum volume for most tasks, and sometimes even that was too loud- so the good news being, you can hear music with a GOOD set of speakers, keep the volume low to avoid hearing loss, and at the same time- get the comfort and added protection from outside sounds with these. The in-ear work better than around the ear, however.I have also used these with (and they recommend) thin-sided glasses, safety or otherwise (I use some Oakley Antix) and (especially on the new pair with newer padding around the ears) they still cut out exterior sound to a really good degree, nearly the same as without the exterior interference. Highly recommended so long as you don't mind keeping a hat off. If you want one- get an oversize hat or a cheapie you don't mind getting bent a little out of shape from the over-head hearing as the wires stick out about a quarter to half-inch from your skin.Also- I have a HUGE head (translation: I wear extra large hats and not all one-size fits all hats fit me.. I think I was 7.25-7.5 on a fitted cap when I played little league baseball...) and very large ears (maybe 3" top to bottom..? they run in the family, oh well..) but these still have expansion space to fit on even larger heads and my ears fit inside the cups PERFECTLY. Unless you are part of the 1% of the population with a freakishly large (no offense) head or ears, they should work perfectly for you, so hopefully that answers that question if you're wondering how they work for larger heads.The only disadvantage I see is with shooting sports, particularly rifle and shotgun. They stick out enough to the point that if you sight down the barrel- they interfere and get pushed out of the way by the rifle/shotgun stock. Would def. recommend a slim set. I went with some Howard Leight ones that work pretty well on battery-operated silencing, however they are not so great if you sweat. These are basically waterproof and don't get sticky like my Howard Leight ones when dry and are easy to maintain. Both are really great quality but bang for the buck... these can not be beat. And now I sound like I work for em. Wish I did- I need to pay off some debt, haha..

This is the 2nd pair of the 3M H10A Peltor Optime 105 Over the Head hearing protection that I have purchased. The 1st pair is still usable after approximately 5 or more years but getting pretty worn. I use these when shooting, mowing, leaf blowing, chainsawing or operating any noisy equipment , anytime I need hearing protection I put them on. Plenty of adjustability and very comfortable while reducing noise.

Good Value for the price, use them in the Shop, Cutting Firewood, & Running the Log Splitter. Block's out harmful sounds really well. Would also work well for a Gun Range. The Lord Love's You !!! Best, PawPaw C

I really like these earmuffs! I wanted something to wear over my noise cancelling earbuds while mowing. These really fill the bill!I have a fairly small cranium and I wear glasses. These two things alone provide a challenge when fitting hearing protection.1) Many muffs are just too big and do not stay in position. These have a perfect amount of tension and adjust 'short' enough to cup the ears properly.2) The padding on many are too stiff and do not conform around eyeglass frames (mine are wire and sit close to my temples) One would think this not to be a problem, but many do not seal very well, admitting quite a bit of noise. These form an excellent seal and are still very comfortable.3) Some ear cups are too compact to accommodate earbuds without pressing them into the ear canals, causing discomfort over time. These are quite spacious. They do not have the sleekest profile, but for my application, they are perfect. They also relieve me of worry over losing my rather expensive Apple Airbuds while zipping around on my big zero turn or tractor!I hope this is helpful to others. The topic of these two products combined seemed to be lacking.I also want to say, that even without earbuds, the amount of noise reduction these provide is excellent! With the noise cancellation, the noise level on the mower is less than that of a really happy cat purring!

Très satisfait, très isolantOn est coupé du monde.Je l'utilise tout le temps quand il t'a du bruit

Blocks a lot of the noise.

perfect fit light wieght perfect isolation

Es un buen producto y de calidad, bueno para evitar ruidos externos, cuando quieres silencio total en un espacio, el material de las almohadillas (tipo plástico) es caliente al contacto con la piel, así que tuve que colocar un trozo de tela entre la almohadilla y mi oido y fue más cómodo usarlo.

Purchased for use by heliskiing guide to block out helicopter noise and they are excellent. Very durable and comfortable. So good in fact that they are used for other noise cancelling applications (power tool use, mowing etc etc). Def recommended.
