VIBESHigh Fidelity Concert Ear Plugs - Reusable Noise Reduction Earplugs for Loud Music, Musicians, Raves, Noise Sensitivity, Motorcycles, Airplanes, and Work - Clear

Having ordered VIBES Ear Plugs from Amazon, I was very pleased with the product, however part of the earplug broke. I contacted VIBES and sent a picture of the broken piece and they responded very quickly. All they asked for was the Amazon order number. They were incredibly prompt with all their replies and couldn’t be more pleasant! They said they would send a replacement the following week. To my surprise, they didn’t replace just the broken piece but sent a set of new earplugs with their little holder.If you’re looking for well made, comfortable earplugs from a reliable company, I would highly recommend VIBES EAR PLUGS both for their product and the people.Lydia

Use them for driving a very loud and clattery bus which on a bad surface can be deafening / painful on the ears. These earplugs really muffle the worst of the clatter + can still hear the passengers when speaking with them. Very happy with the product.

Update: I reached out to the company's support team and they got back to me within a few hours with an offer to send me a flip-top case! I was glad to hear back from them - this is definitely a positive resolution. I wish they included the items advertised, but they seem to stand behind their product and are willing to help make things right.I am fairly impressed by how the product works so far, but I am quite frustrated by the fact that this product ships with a completely different carrying case than what is advertised on the product page. The product page shows a "flip open" style case, which I was specifically looking to purchase. The product I received included a screw-top metal container. While this works and is able to carry the product, it is notably *not* what was advertised on the product page. If this case is something that you are specifically looking for, be wary (though, to echo, the ear plugs themself seem to work well enough).

I keep these in my bag for wherever I go! The tiny case it comes with fits well in my pocket if I don't want a bag that day. I used to avoid a lot of events because of how sensitive my hearing is, but now I can enjoy bars and concerts with friends. My previous pair broke after a couple years, immediately bought them again because of how well they work. Super comfortable, and the clear color makes them not noticeable. You can clearly hear friends talking to you, but dims the loud surroundings. Great gift for people who go to a lot of loud events (protect their ears!) or autistic people like me who get overstimulated by sounds.

I bought 2 of these for an EDM festival and I was impressed. It did not hinder the ability to hear the music; however, it was slightly difficult to hear my girlfriend but it was an easy fix by talking louder or talking directly to each other’s ears. One thing I do wish for a was string attached to the end so I didn’t worry about losing them.

hard to switch the ear pieces , for what you get not worth the price

not easy to useUpdate: upgraded to 5 stars after prompt response from seller who remedied the transaction. Great communication and awesome to deal with.

TLDR: The round shaped tip allows and encourages the earplug to get sucked into the ear canal deeper than is easy to remove and, in my case, required a trip to urgent care and the associated bills.Full review:As a musician, I've used all manner of earplugs. For day-to-day band practice and going to concerts, I tend to use non-custom hi-fi musician's earplugs like the Vibes. After many years of using my preferred brand, I wanted to try something new because I've never loved the ear-feel of my preferred brand, but they do the job and I can rely on them. Reviews lead me to Vibes suggesting they were very comfortable so I decided to give them a shot.In every other brand of ear-hole-sized product I've used, I've always been happy with the standard, medium size. So when these arrive with the medium tips on, I just tried them on immediately. And upon putting them in my ears, they immediately got sucked in deeper into my ear canal to the point where I could not remove them with my fingers. I got one out with some careful work with needle-nosed pliers but the other one was too deep and I quickly went to urgent care to get it removed safely and professionally – at a significant cost to my wallet.Every other type of similar earplug I've used has a flared design where keeps getting bigger so unless you're using far to small a tip, it just reaches a place where it can't go further. These use a round design which, in retrospect, I should have known was a terrible idea. There's a rule regarding products that you insert into orifices, they're supposed to have a flared end so they can't be sucked up into that orifice. This product does not follow that rule and therefore is very unsafe.The varied sizes of the tips don't mitigate this safety problem. In the case of the ear canal, it has hard cartilage outer section and then a soft canal internally. I can easily imagine a situation where someone carefully fit these earplugs into the hard cartilage area and then in the jostling at a concert, the plug gets pushed in past its widest point to where it now gets sucked in deeper. I've seen no other earplug brand that uses such a round shape, rather than tapered, such so that a comfortable insertion is just a hairs breath away from a painful medical emergency.Seriously, avoid at all costs. I was pretty excited for some more comfortable plugs but I guess I'll go back to etymotics or try another one of the new players.
