Same here... they're the most comfortable and it's hard to find ones that have a higher decibel rating.

I bought a few pairs of etys for concerts and the shop. I like them alot better than std foam plugs - they don't muffle sound as much as lower it evenly. easier to talk while working. Even better would be the custom molded kind.

As suggested by others, I like the Howard Leight LaserLite or the E-A-R Soft Blast. The HL MaxLite is more comfy, but with a lower NRR.

When I was in the market for ear plugs a few years ago, I bought a variety pack online similar to the ones available here.

I eventually found my leftovers, which were from that same site, "The Ear Plug Super Store".

Female nipples. Put one in each ear and I guarantee you'll not hear whatever it was that was bothering you anymore

Sonic II by North. They work well for high noise industrial enviro's yet allow conversation thru without the plugged up sensation.

I use EAR FX plugs and the howard leight maxlite's.

I use surefire EarPro EP-4's now though. They're 4 bucks but a lot more comfortable. Don't block out completely like regular plugs either.

I've tryed the purple ones, they can irritate after a while. Laser Lites have never let me down and are really comfortable.

Yeah same. I forgot the name... Quiet Time or something? There are a couple of different kinds but the purple ones are the cheapest and I think have the highest db rating. Talk about win right there.

I usually get some light blue ones from CVS... no idea what the brand is. They're like $4 for a 50-pack.

Well you might hear it, but your right, it wouldn't bother you.
