Material:soft & comfy.Quality:Slight scratch on the side on 1 muff but not so evident as to warrant a return.Best purchase I've ever made in my life.Delivery in only 1 day after order.REMINDER that you need to slide the muffs from the back of your ears so that the lobs can be tucked nicely INSIDE and NOT under the muffs cushions!

An affordable way to block out most noise.

Use these ear muffs if you want it really quiet. They are not the most comfortable, but not too bad either. I can read a book etc. while the neighbors are out doing their annoying things during the day. Yes, these will get me through until the lease is up.

Good quality

I was used to using a 26 DB rated one and wao using this now, it makes a difference. I typically mow for an hour, rarely an hour and 15 minutes and my hearing is perfectly fine afterwards. Remember that your ear should be fully inside of the pads for max protection.

Not a peep from Downtown Seattle with my ear muffs on!

I use it for everyday travelling about in Seattle on the bus and walking around. The ear protection does a great job of eliminating harmful sounds to my ears. I was a former broadcaster who had more than a few run-ins with loud accidental feedback as well as quite a few years of wearing earphones for my shift as well as production time. Now at 70 years of age I still hear quite well and this product does a great job of drowning out the cacophony of downtown Seattle. A lot better than wearing ear plugs.

The sound of silence

Yo mad stuff in and around work zones be loud. Trucks be loud with that being when they got to go backwards. Saws be loud having to cut through steel and concrete and all that. Machines be loud banging and clanging. All that ruins your ears. And it's not just at work, at home you could got loud kids always screaming. Maybe it's the neighbors kids whom are the loud ones. Who cares get rid of loud noise with these lil darlings. My head was ringing every night till I got these. For real for real get a pair.Only downside to these are you are left to your own thoughts as there is no speakers these are strictly to make your world quieter. That being said you can comfortably wear wired/wireless headphones in your ears while at the same time wearing these bad boys.I ... MoreYo mad stuff in and around work zones be loud.

I'd rather a product do 1 thing great instead of 2 things good.
