Best earplugs

You only get one sense of hearing and it has to last you your whole life. So it’s important to look after it and protect your ears from loud noises. Damage to your hearing can’t be healed and long-term harm could become evident in the future if you have consistent exposure to sounds over 95 decibels (dB).

A good pair of earplugs can always be easily carried and quickly put in. If you’re at a loud concert, a noisy construction site, mowing the lawn, practising the drums or enjoying the sport of shooting, it’s essential that you have some earplugs to hand. They are also great for blocking out sounds when you want to sleep or study. There can’t be an easier fix for noisy neighbours. Here are the earplugs we recommend.
