Worked well while using the mower. Allowed me to wear my wide brim hat and still listen to podcasts while mowing.

I bought these to wear, with a hat on, while working under a car. I’m a technician and using air tools to work on suspension gets very loud very quick. I didn’t want something that went over my head because I am pretty tall and one of that style kept getting knocked off my head because of how I was trying to maneuver under the vehicle. These work and fit great and prevent my ears from ringing after using air tools for a prolonged period of time. I have a second pair I use at home for weed whacking and mowing the lawn. They stay secure around my hears even on the hottest days.

Fit well and block out the sound around you,wish they worked better with a hard hat but still worth the price

Does not technically have noise cancellation, but noise attenuation is very good.Slim, lower-profile type muffs/cups, don’t knock on stock when shooting rifle/shotgun anywhere near as bad as big cups.Had a similar pair (not low-profile) I wore at work with a bump cap and hard hat as spring band goes behind head instead of resting on top of head.Works well with full-brim hats such as Boonie hat, gardening bonnet, or cowboy hat.Tan color a bit blah, but I have plenty of Frog Tape and spray paint if I feel like getting fashionable or festive.We usually use the cup-style protection with earplugs or earbuds. Also works great with the Axil GhostStryke combo Bluetooth earbud/hearing protection and should work fine with similar in-ear products. Doubling-up allows you to listen to music at a much lower volume than earbud ear pro alone (see below).The reason for double protection is a more broad-spectrum frequency attenuation in addition to additional decibel reduction. Double protection is more useful for lawnmower, weed eater, tractor, industrial blower/grinder equipment - high-noise areas - than intermittent like shooting, hammering, impact wrench, and other hand tool usage.Buy these and start protecting NOW while you’re young. If you’re old like me buy them anyway so you’ll go deaf a later rather than sooner.

These earmuffs are perfect when wearing hats or helmets, very good protection and fit.

These ear muffs work like normal hearing protection. What makes them great is the low profile. I am a transmission specialist for Freightliner and I can use them going over the back of the transmission. They work better than any other ear muff I have worn.

These are great.I already had some over-the-head pair, but I wanted these so that I can wear a hat at the same time. These fit well and allow for a hat to keep the sun off my neck.The performance and hearing protection is as great as you could expect. I wear earbuds underneath and can keep them at a normal volume while mowing the lawn.

First: the instructions for installing the over head strap (necessary because sweat will cause the ear cups to slip) are not very clear. The entire ear pad pops off. Reach into the cup and pull the hard rim the pad and they come off. It takes a good squeeze to pop the pads back onto the cups, just get the top of the pad snapped in before pushing the bottom in.These are perfect for lower noise exposures. The behind the head band let’s me wear wide brimmed hats for yard work in the sun. Noise reduction is enough that I become aware of how much sound comes through the vibrations in my arms holding the mower or blower.The frequency response isn’t as effective as earplugs are for me for the type of conveyers in the warehouse, but when my gloves are dirty I don’t want to fumble with foam earplugs.

I have sensory processing issues. Loud noise can cause extreme distress, like landscapers when they’re using their blowers for hours.I can sleep with this on with construction ear plugs underneath. Very comfy. I bring them everywhere. Recently to the ER filled with screaming children. People were visibly envious lol.They’re also great for their intended purpose. They work well for ear protection, and I can again pop them over my earplugs for double protection when using loud machinery because they sit around the neck, they stay on your neck if you have to pop them off, and there is no interference with a hard hat.

Bought these for at work. I work at an oil refinery and i need them for loud areas of the plant where double hearing protection is required. Compared to other ear protection these are very light on your head, do not attach to your hard hat which is a bonus, fit very snug and comfortable for long periods of use. They do not nip the edges of your ear. Great purchase i recommend them forsure.

I'm a welder and need to wear ear protection. Because of the welding helmet, spongy earplugs (or their silicone versions) are usually the chosen alternative. Personally, I don't like wearing things that squeeze into my ear canals. These 3M Peltor ear muffs do FIT under my helmet (Lincoln 3350 - with 4C lens). It's snug, there's no wiggle room but it fits. Adding the included velcro fabric/band meant to secure the muffs in place really makes a difference. That band sits right on top of the head and secures them at the chosen height. This system is not heavy duty but the principle works, as long as you take care of your gear. Also, they were a little too tight out of the box so I gently stretched their opening range. I can add silicone ear plugs underneath if needed for extra protection. They don't block sound as much as bulkier muffs but again, they're thinner, and they cut most of the frequencies that would be damaging long term. I can also wear my security eyeglasses (and Covid mask). It lost 1 star because of the vinyl contour around the ears. It's spongy enough and relatively comfortable but I wish they would come up with a kind of fabric that is breathable, though I recognize most of them don't do this.
