Frequently Asked Questions

What makes shooting ear plugs different from regular ear plugs?

Our shooting ear plugs are specifically designed to provide optimal protection in high-noise environments like shooting ranges. They offer a higher Single Number Rating (SNR) to ensure your ears are safeguarded against the loud sounds associated with gunfire.

How do electronic ear plugs work, and what benefits do they offer?

Electronic ear plugs use advanced technology to automatically adjust their noise-canceling capabilities based on the surrounding environment. This allows you to maintain situational awareness while still enjoying protection from loud noises, making them ideal for shooting sports where hearing subtle sounds is crucial.

Can I wear electronic ear plugs while participating in shooting competitions?

Absolutely! Many shooting enthusiasts find electronic ear plugs to be advantageous in competitions. The technology allows you to hear range commands and communicate with others while still providing protection against loud gunfire.

Can I use shooting ear plugs for other activities like concerts or industrial work?

While our shooting ear plugs are specifically designed for shooting sports, many users find them effective in various noisy environments, including concerts and industrial settings. However, for optimal protection, we recommend exploring our product range designed specifically for those activities.

What are custom ear plugs and why would I want them?

Custom ear plugs use bespoke ear moulds to achieve the most comfortable fit, whilst maintaining high degrees of hearing protection. This involves having your ear impressions taken which are then used to manufacture your custom ear plugs.
