Custom Molded Ear Plugs, 31dB NRR Shooting Ear Protection (Pink) | Reusable & Re-moldable, For Range Officers, Jobsite Crews & Musicians, Travel & Concert Use, Earplugs, American Company

These custom-molded earplugs have been a game-changer for my trap shooting sessions. After 1.5 months of regular use, I can confidently say they're superior to traditional hearing protection options, especially if you're tired of over-ear muffs getting knocked around by your shotgun stock. The molding process might look intimidating at first, but it's surprisingly straightforward and user-friendly. Once molded, they provide an almost perfect "snap-in" fit that's far more secure than disposable foam or wax alternatives. The noise reduction is impressive - they block out exactly what you need them to while maintaining a comfortable fit. Two minor criticisms: First, the lanyard needs to be purchased separately, which feels like an unnecessary upsell given how essential it is for keeping track of the plugs. Second, the initial molding process, while easy, can make some users nervous about getting it right (though it's actually quite foolproof). Compared to traditional ear protection options: - Superior fit compared to generic foam/wax plugs - No more interference with gun stock like over-ear muffs - Reusable and durable - Excellent noise reduction Pro tip: Take your time with the molding process and don't rush it. The results are worth the extra few minutes of careful attention. Bottom line: Despite the lanyard being sold separately, these are absolutely worth the investment for any serious shooter looking for reliable, comfortable hearing protection that won't interfere with their shooting form.

The molding process is super straightforward once you watch a quick video or two. Once set, the fit stays locked in, and having no strings means they never get yanked out by accident. I wore them 10+ hours a day for 3 days straight with zero ear fatigue or soreness. Outstanding hearing protection.

I got Decibullz earplugs to keep water out of my ears, and bought the Radians version for a comparison. Specifically, I need to use them for my son and wanted to try them myself before trying them on a child. Each has their advantages. For noise protection, the Decibullz are rated at 31 dB protection vs. 26 dB with the Radians. I couldn't tell a difference with a different type in each ear, but I'd say a technical point to Decibullz if you're looking for hearing protection. The molding process is a little simpler with Radians vs. Decibullz, but they are both pretty simple. Just like making a mouthguard, you put the Decibullz in boiling water for 5 minutes, take it out for 30 seconds, and then mold to the ear. I would wait a SOLID 30-45 seconds before trying on my child because they are pretty warm. Don't want to frighten a child while time is of the essence. After molding to the ear, let them sit another 5 minutes in the ear, and they are ready to roll. The directions didn't say whether one should remove the round Decibullz logo'd cap from the outside part during the heating/molding, but I did, and it seemed to work out fine. Once they are cooled, they are fairly hard plastic, but (theoretically) perfectly molded to the ears. If they aren't a good fit, they say you can repeat the process, but I've found from experience with toothguards that after the first try, they are less likely to fit the way they were designed to on subsequent tries. On the other hand, if it's only a small adjustment to be made, it might work fine the second time as long as you're very careful not to make big changes. When you finish molding them, they become pretty thin in an adult ear, but a child's ear is smaller so they will probably still have some fullness (and look like the photo) when molded to a child's ear. I wore them for a while, and they are as comfortable as you can expect any earplug to be. As long as you mold them under the curve at the front of the ear "bowl" above the ear hole, they should be pretty hard to accidentally knock out. They come with 3 different sizes of soft silicone "Christmas Trees" to fit on the stem that goes into the ear hole, and another foam rubber nub that can also be used. I think the foam rubber one gives a little bit better noise protection, but the silicone ones look to give better water protection. Still, as someone else wrote in a review, if the foam rubber one doesn't fit and you got them for noise protection, you're not getting the full benefit with the silicone ones. Also, the silicone ones seem to extend slightly further into the ear than the foam rubber ones, but this may be more perception than reality. As mentioned, they are designed with a small, logo'd rubber cap that seats on the outside of a tube that extends down the middle of the plug. With the cap in, they are pretty water-proof/sound-proof. On the other hand, if you lose that rubber cap, they lose 95% of their functionality. The reason they were designed this was was so that you could use them with sound-producing earphones (instead of the rubber caps.) Just be sure that you are ordering the earplugs if you want plugs, and earphones if you want tunes. In summary, Decibullz earplugs are safe to use (if you follow the directions), comfortable to wear, seem to stay in very well, come in slick colors, and probably do a little better job at noise protection that the competition. On the other hand, if you don't follow the directions, you could cause pain when molding them (not likely there would be any lasting damage,) and if you lose the little black rubber cap, they become nonfunctional.

Some background: I'm a really light sleeper and I'm SUPER sensitive to snoring. So for the past few years, my go-to earplug for sleeping is the #M TaperFit 2, in a large size because my ear canals are pretty big. But after the last few 200 count boxes of those, I've been running into quality control issues, so I decided to try something more sustainable. Enter these moldables from Decibullz. I really did my homework here. I watched a ton of in-depth reviews on YouTube, both from folks trying these for the range and for sleeping. And almost unanimously people rave about these plugs. So I grabbed a pair on same-day delivery and decided to give them a shot before re-ording TaperFits again. Amazon delivered them, and I spent some time reading the included instructions, and then just to be safe, I re-watched videos from reviewers as well as Decibullz to make sure I got the molding process right. Since I have such large canals, I went straight to the largest silicone in-ear plug size. After hot-soaking the plugs for five minutes and cooling for 30 seconds, I inserted the plugs as deeply into my ear canal as I could and began press-molding the plugs to completely cover the inside of my conch. I had my wife watch to make sure everything that could be covered inside my conch was covered. While waiting for the plugs to cool and set in my ears for five minutes each, we were watching TV, and I had zero issues hearing the show. So not a good sign so far, but I hadn't yet put the included end-caps in yet. After the setting process, I removed them and let them air-cool the rest of the way down. Last night at bedtime I inserted the end-caps and then pressed these back into my ear. After setting the silicone plugs into my canals, I could feel them slip ever so slightly back out, but seeing as the seal around my conch was still firm, I thought it might be normal. But as my wife was asking me how they worked, I realized I could hear her almost as easily as without the plugs. I noticed I was hearing my cat bathing herself all the way down the hall, which is quiet without anything in my ears. I pushed and held them in and they were about half as effective as my TaperFits, and when I let go they were practically non-existent in my ears sound-proofing wise. So all in all, in MY ears, these are a complete fail. Comparing with foam TaperFits, here's the rub: They are both rated at "maximum NRR" of about 31dB; the TaperFits say 32, but, they're comparable on paper. But when the TaperFits fit properly, the noise blocking is great. The finger-rub test -- where you gently rub two fingers together next to your ear -- is almost silent with the TaperFits. With the Decibullz, there was practically no difference: I could hear every detail of my thumb and forefinger rubbing together. A few observations about the Decibullz that I think contribute to the failures here: * The flanges on the silicone plugs are SUPER thin and light. This means they lack rigidity to remain expanded in the ear canal, or to hold them in place from slipping out of the optimal depth and position. I can also see these cracking and breaking down in no time, as I've experienced the same on other earplugs that had flanges this thin. See my included macro-lens super closeup video clip of how they flex and nearly fold with a very SLIGHT prodding with a tiny beauty tool. * The black endcaps that go into the hard plastic hollow core are also very thin. They seem to just act like a drum, propagating all vibrations from the outside that hit them, transferring that sound straight through the tube core, and into the silicon plugs themselves. * And then there's that hard, hollow, plastic core in the center of the molding, between the endcap and the ear canal tips. Why are these hollow?!? That's just a recipe to propagate as much sound as possible! These cores should be filled with some kind of sound/vibration dampening material, instead of providing an air pocket for compression in tandem with that drum-head of an end-cap. The engineering on this is frankly laughable. So what I would say in Decibullz defense here is that earplug performance is always going to be highly subjective to a degree. Everyone's ears are different and no one single product can be pest for them all as a result. But past that, there's just some engineering decisions here that leave me scratching my head as to how so many people can say these work well enough to ditch disposable foam plugs. I can't imagine the pain and volume I'd experience with a rifle going off on the other side of these tiny drums.

Not bad sound deadening. But not nearly as easy to use as they would have you believe,. You have to heat each one up in boiling water, let it cool a minute, then put it into your ear and mold it to shape. Which sounds simple enough, until you realize there is no convenient way to look at your own ear, and that the way things feel is not necessarily the way they are. I got one in easily enough, on my right side. But the left was a nightmare. You can pull it out and re-do the process but once you try one or two times the plug is no longer close to the original shape and begins to get thin in places and fat in others and it gets to be a real challenge. It took me an hour to get the second one more or less correct. A few tips: 1.) There is a removable outer plug with a ridge or groove in it. Tie a piece of sewing thread around this and leave it dangle a few inches. This will look silly when you are wearing them, but it gives you something to grab to pull them out. Otherwise, once you get these to fit really well, you need a screwdriver and a pliers, LOL. 2.) Do not make the blanks extremely hot. Five minutes, as recommended, is too long. They become so soft that as you press them in the material squishes into the ear canal where, once it hardens, it will transmit sound, rather than block it. The hardened material must all stop at the rubber part. Instead, heat it a little... heat it a little, mold it a little. 3.) Finally, once you get them to fit really well and then remove them, the best way to put them in the next time is to put them into your ear rotated 90 degrees "forward" of the final position within the vertical plane and then, as you press them in, rotate them toward the back. This will allow the outer edge to "screw" into the outer rim of your ear and lock them in place. Once done you should be able to lie down comfortably and sleep with these in.

For a while, I was researching a lot of the top choices for hearing protection because my girlfriend and I were going to the Indy 500 for the first time, and we wanted to protect our ears. Having been to NASCAR races before, I knew what I was looking for and I also knew I didn't want over-the-ear ear muffs because they can put some strain on your head and cause sweat to pool around your ears. So, I wanted earplugs to counter these issues. I investigated a lot of options, but Decibullz was the first choice I saw and it stuck with me the whole time. I'll put it simply: These ear plugs are the best out there. With the slightest caveat. Most of the negative reviews for this product are due to user error. If you follow the directions and mold them properly, you will experience NONE of the issues they faced. These ear plugs were comfortable for an entire 3 hour race, no irritation, and no hearing loss at all. No sound bled through, and they didn't ever feel like they were going to fall out. The setup is pretty straightforward, but let me share what I did to make them fit absoultely PERFECTLY: 1. Setup the earplugs while boiling your water. I got the case/laynard/plugs bundle, so I used the non-laynard filters and the smallest tri-flange tip they had. This is to ensure the earplug goes in far enough into your ears to get a good inner mold(very important). 2. Once water and plugs are ready, do ONE PLUG at a time!!! This is crucial. The steps say to do both, but it is much easier when you can focus on one plug at a time. Let it sit in the water for 5-6 minutes. 3. Gently scoop the plug out with a spoon. I used a metal spoon and had no issues. And let it cool until you can touch it. Be careful not to squeeze too hard! 4. This is the most important part: Carefully put the plug in your ear. Make sure to rest it in your ear, and then ONLY push where the filter is initially. Making sure the plug is IN your ear properly is the most crucial step! And make sure it is in as comfortably far as possible. 5. Begin to massage the plug into the space of you ear. I focused on pushing to the back of my ear, then massaging above my ear lobe, and then the front of the ear. And then keep pushing on the filter to maintain that seal. Keep doing this for a few minutes. Also, very useful to have another person helping, but a mirror works too to ensure the whole ear canal is covered. 6. During this process, I also was squeezing my ear (top and bottom, front and back) around the mold to make sure it took total shape of my ear and to ensure it's not going to hurt my ears for being in a long time. 7. Once the plugs are hardened, carefully take them out and let them cool. Then repeat the steps for the other ear plug. 8. After all the plugs are molded, it is important to test the plugs TWO different times. First, test both plugs in at the same time to ensure the sound around you is at least muffled. Have some air blow into each ear. If you hear a lot of air/wind, then it is best to try and refit them to make sure your whole ear hole is covered. 9. If that test passes, then you will want to switch to the foam ear tips (these offer the best noise cancellation). Squeeze the foam tips so they compress and go further in the ear. Do the same test as the last step. If you have the same issue, make sure to change the tips BACK to the ones you used initally and then repeat the steps to refit them/warm them back up. 10. The plugs should significantly reduce the sound. Almost like you're underwater. But you should still be able to hear mostly everything. It reduces the noise, not cancel it out. For anyone looking to use these plugs for the same application as me (in-person auto racing spectating), then these are absolutely PERFECT! I was able to hear the cars go by at a reasonable volume, AND I could still talk to my partner between passes and hear the announcer clearly over the speakers. Because of how great these plugs were, I definitely anticipate using these for other applications (concerts, more races, anything that is loud). If you were on the fence about getting these plugs, please let this review be the sign to get them. Ignore the bad reviews, because they more than likely did not install them correctly. TLDR: Bought these plugs for IndyCar/NASCAR races, and worked perfectly for that application. I shared the steps I took to make them fit right, and experiencd none of the negatives the bad reviews shared because I followed the steps. Highly recommend getting these plugs!

I am a long range competitive shooter so I am frequently around a lot of other shooters who use muzzle breaks on their rifles, which makes them incredibly loud. I had been using Surefire Defender earplugs for several years and really liked them. They blocked sound very well and were usually pretty comfortable. However, during some of the longer competitions, especially the 2-day matches, my ears would begin to hurt and feel very uncomfortable were the earplugs press against the ear. My brother had a pair of these Decibullz earplugs and really liked them so I decided to give them a shot. I took the time to mold these earplugs very carefully to the shape of my ear, following all of the instructions. After molding I switched out the rubber earplug tips for the foam tips and tested them out. I was very pleased to find out that these were much more effective at blocking sound than my surefire earplugs. I can now be comfortable being around muzzle brakes all day long during competitions. Since these are custom molded, they feel very comfortable and I have not had any discomfort while wearing them. I noticed there are several reviews that say these earplugs do not block sound very well. I am sure many of these people had issues molding the earplugs or did not follow the directions properly. If you follow the instructions carefully and take the time to mold them right, these earplugs are extremely effective. Also, since these earplugs come with several different tips, I would suggest trying all of them to find out which one is the most comfortable and blocks the most sound. Personally I would recommend the foam tips as they are both comfortable and very good at blocking sound. If you chose to use these earplugs without any of the tips installed, do not expect them to block very much sound. They are intended to be used with both the inner tip that goes inside the ear and the outer plug that has the decibullz logo on it. Also, be aware that these should never be left in your pockets or on the dash of a vehicle during summer. If these go through the washing machine and dryer, they will be ruined and make a mess.

As a motorcycle rider I am always trying new things to make riding more enjoyable and safer. I saw these and liked the idea of custom earplugs, and the fact that they are totally reusable, unlike the foam Macks I have worn for years and I definitely love, but get dirty and need to be thrown away after a week or two. These are rated at just 1db less protection than the Macks, which is negligable. Although they are rated at NRR 31, that is only with the extra foam tips, which they recommend your replace every 4-6 months. The silicone tips which are infinitely reusable do not provide this level of protection. It does not state what protection they do provide, but its nothing close to what the foam tips provide. So I either do not get the protection I want by using the silicone tips, or I do not get the environmental or cost savings I want because I still need to buy and replace the foam tips. Although the colored moldable part fits my ear perfectly, it is definitely hard once molded and not necessarily comfortable. Because they go deep into the ear and the molded part fits so snugly, they are tough to get ahold of when removing. When putting on or removing a helmet they do catch on the foam and pull out slightly, which never happens with the foam Macks as they sit deeper in my ear and have no hard parts to catch. The silicone part of these fits onto hard plastic piece which you insert into your ear canal and this part can be painful when inserting and cause irritation over time. The instructions do tell you to use a larger silicone if you feel the hard plastic inside (you are given a S,M,L with your purchase), but I have not been able to find a comfortable fit. Either I feel the hard plastic, or the silicone is too large for me to get a good seal. One last comment. If you stick your finger in your ear and move it in and out slightly, you can hear a high pitched sort of noise from the pressure. I get that same sensation from wearing these Decibullz. Almost like tinitus. I can ear my heartbeat and a constant noise which I do not hear with foam plugs. Perhaps all the positive reviews are genuine and you will have better results than I did, but for me, foam is the way to go. Cheaper, more comfortable, better noise protection, and you get a perfect new pair regularly. And if you lose one or two, who cares, just grab another. Try a few brands to find the size, shape, and firmness you like. I will be sticking with Macks ultrasoft for now.

Waste money the ear plug doesn't work and is too big

Es facil de colocar y moldear regula bastante el sonido

O produto é excelente e foi capaz de tornar imperceptíveis os ruídos de alto tráfego local, o que não era possível com tampões somente de espuma.

It works, I cannot hear my colleagues talking in ZOOM calls and chattering near me in an open office after I wear this earplug, it is a life changer, I can be more concentrated in my work now. In the past the office sounds like Chaos in WH40K chaos full of chatter in million dialects, now I finally in peace.
