Protechs Foam Ear Plugs for Sleeping, Snoring, Traveling, Concerts, Construction & Studying, Ultra Soft & Comfortable, Black, 10 Pairs, NRR 32 Hearing Protection for Loud Noise

Sometimes simplicity is the answer. These make the cut. I've tried wax earplugs - they are good for one night, then they warm up and lose the shape and it's difficult to reshape them once they thin out to fit your ear canal once. I've tried custom-made, molded-to- your-ear-canal earplugs - they are EXCELLENT for anything else BUT sleeping - silicone is still too hard of a material - I didn't realize that when you sleep with your head on a pillow, you smoosh and squeeze your ear canal and EVERYTHING moves there at night - silicone custom-made earplugs that fit me so well when I'm standing or sitting (they take a mold of your ear when you are sitting up), when you lay down, they simply hurt. Now THESE are the best solution so far. They are soft, pliable, washable AND you can custom carve them with scissors ANY way you like. I got smaller ear canals, so I cut 1/3 of the length off and cut a groove out from top to bottom to make them compress into a thinner shape when I insert. Perfecto. Simple. Cheap. Work. And yes, washable and reusable.

Let me introduce you to the unsung heroes of my household: Flents Foam Ear Plugs. These little purple miracles have rescued me from the thunderous snores of my loving but sinus-challenged partner. I don’t know what kind of soundproof wizardry they’re made with, but the moment I insert them, it’s like slipping into a blissful cone of silence. Birds chirping? Gone. Neighbor mowing his lawn at 6am? What lawn? Spouse snoring like a freight train carrying bricks uphill? What spouse?They come in a pack of 10 pairs — which is great because I drop one about every third day and can’t find it without a search party and infrared goggles. They also come in a cute little travel case, which makes me feel like a professional sound-avoider on the go.These earplugs don’t just block noise. They disintegrate it. I wore them on a red-eye flight seated next to a toddler armed with a plastic recorder, a juice box, and zero remorse. Didn’t hear a thing. It was like I had pressed mute on the whole airplane. Honestly, I half expected the flight attendants to ask me to remove them just to make sure I wasn’t dead.Comfort? 10/10. You squish them like a tiny stress ball, pop them in, and they expand in your ear like a soft, purple cloud. I’ve slept on my side, face down, even once with a cat on my head, and never once did they fall out. They fit like a dream, don’t irritate my ears, and come out in the morning without a fight — unlike other foam earplugs that cling to your soul.Oh, and did I mention they’re purple? Not some depressing beige or creepy skin-tone color. No. These are bold, confident, and unmistakable. When I find one in the laundry or under the bed, I salute it.If you’re trying to sleep, study, survive a concert, or just not hear other humans for a while, these are your go-to. I would give them 10 stars if I could, and maybe a thank-you card.

I recently moved in with my partner and he snores like a train. It’s been really disrupting of my sleep so bad that some nights I’ve taken to sleeping on the couch. I tried the Loop Quiet 2 ear plugs because they had some of the best ratings but at the same time ordered these just in case. For roughly $4, what did I have to lose. The loops did not work for me. Too uncomfortable (I am a side sleeper) and blocked out no noise whatsoever. Immediately returned those and tried these. Instantly I was blown away. The second you put them in your ear it reduces almost all noise. I sleep with an industrial fan by my bedside to keep cool and I enjoy the bit of white noise it provides as well but even right beside my head the noise was completely muted. I am shocked at how well these worked for me considering the price. Because they’re foam they mold to your ear so you don’t need to bother with finding the right size and on top of that makes them super comfortable, it didn’t hurt to lay on either side. I’m so happy with this purchase, I feel like I can sleep soundly again. My only complaint is that these babies work so well, I’m afraid they’ll block out my alarm to get up for work!

These are fine, The 4 stars is because apparently I have a small ear canal & these tend to not stay in, even with pinching the tips. Perhaps ordering the smaller size wouldn't pop out but I just trimmed the ends which is sort of an OK solution. Didn't realize a petite woman would need petite ear buds., Guess size does matter. Good product,, just not my size
