PELTOR Hearing Protection Optime 105 Earmuffs, E-A-Rfit Compatible, Assembly, Sanding, Grinding

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..

I find these earmuffs perfect when running my chainsaw or firing a pistol. I can hear a little of everything around but the severity of the high amplitude noise is well below the damage point. I know that because I have a cochlear disorder and will have additional tinnitus and noticeable hearing loss, often temporary but usually permanent, if I hit that threshold. The reason I went the muffs route is due to safety - ear plugs can theoretically provide adequate protection but the fit needs to be "just right" and accidents happen and then you damage your hearing. I'm tired of the accidents, with plugs slipping a bit, etc. And I don't feel the need to wear plugs under the muffs, yet, as some other people do. The fit is good with these muffs. My wife has one as well and they fit her fine. It takes some force, but the muff can be pulled downwards once on your head for the perfect fit. No discomfort after wearing them because the contact part is very squishy. They seem built well and I expect them to last.

I'm a pretty hardworking student. And by pretty hardworking, I mean I'm a med student who studies all day. That being said, I need it to be perfectly quiet for me to get anything done. As in noises from the shower, noises from my fish tank filter, music from the other room, and even the AC in the library distract me enough that I don't get anything done. I've been looking at noise canceling headphones for a while, and even bought a cheap ($30) one (which lasted for about 6 months and broke the second I lent it to my little sister), but the majority of the good ones are ridiculously expensive and I just can't justify spending $200 on something that makes my life a little more convenient (read: no having to find obscure places on campus at midnight where nobody bothers going so I can study). I thought of the earmuffs that I had tried out at a shooting range right before calling my parents to ask them if they'd be okay with a $200 dollar purchase, and bought these as kind of a "meh might as well try it out" kind of thing. These are a lifesaver. They work way better than the cheapo noise canceling headphones I had, and I think they work almost as well as actual noise canceling headphones (though I've never used those before). Noise levels it will tune out: - With my bedroom door closed, I can no longer hear my roommates conversations down the hall (unless they start screaming), the TV down the hall, the shower that touches my door, or even music being played at full blast in the shower. These were all big distractions before I got these headphones - It completely tunes out the filter from my fish tank, -if I forget that these are on, my music ends up being at least three notches higher (out of the 16 notch volume bar on my macbook pro). - my phone vibrating - I havn't tried this on a plane yet, but I imagine they'd work well Noise levels it ill not tune out (but it will reduce) - Friends standing right behind me and asking me why I'm wearing giant earmuffs - people knocking on my door - music from my downstairs neighbors that quite literally shakes my floor every friday night. This is actually why I got the earmuffs, and although they reduce the level of noise, I can still hear the music (it doesn't cut out the base very well), and my floor shaking is still quite distracting. Oh well, can't have my cake and eat it too I guess. Either way, if you're a student who likes it quiet, buy these! Only downside to these is that they're not the most comfortable thing to have on (eating with these on is pretty awkward), and they look pretty big and bulky. People will ask questions if you're wearing these outside of your room. Luckily (or unluckily) any sense of caring what others think of me has completely gone out the window, so its not a problem at all for me. tldr;: Good alternative for $200 noise canceling headphones for a student or professional who likes it quiet

Seem well-made, and provide good sound isolation. Not sure they’re right for hours-long usage, however, as they fit tightly. Now if I could just remember where I put this, as I’ll be using my powered lawn equipment again soon.

These ear protectors really work well. We use them when splitting wood on our log splitter. They really lower the sound from the gas-powered splitter as it splits large rounds of wood. We use them on other projects that we need sound protection from. Best hearing protection we have found in years.

Tunes people out when they squeak their chairs and eat hard pretzels inches away from me during exams. I have an enormous head (men’s Large on a female body), but these have no trouble stretching to fit me. The pressure is also helpful when you have a glutamate headache coming on from taking a 7+ hour math exam

Good Seller Item is just as advertised. good fit and excellent noise reduction.

I can give these no less than a 5 star. I bought 2 other brands, and they can’t compare. I have misophonia, and these cut out 100% of my misophonic frequencies which disturb me. A+!

Blocks a lot of the noise.

This is my second pair. I sleep with them some nights. Yes they are bulky. I am a side sleeper, but I arrange my pillows so it works. I set my alarm on my phone and I can hear it enough to wake me up. I am a light sleeper. I live in a townhouse with paper thin walls. I hear neighbours kids screaming, dogs barking, music playing, bongo drums etc at all hours. Yes, 2020 was hell being stuck at home during lockdowns. These saved my sanity. These truly block out all that noise. Other products would hurt the top of my head. ( the band) but not these. Yes my ears feel a little humid in the morning. The pressure is not too tight as to be uncomfortable. I just could not wear ear plugs at night without my ears itching and hurting. I have even used this product camping so that I didn’t have to listen to the crickets. Sometimes I just need quiet time without noise and interruption. These are the best in my opinion.

perfect fit light wieght perfect isolation

Great noise suppression is the first I noticed. I have worn various earmuffs woking around aircraft as a maintainer for twenty years. Bought these for my home workshop and they are the best I have ever worn. Comfortable to wear also.
