The exchangeable ear tips ensured that I could find the correct fit for better in-ear comfort and isolation. This could be a good option who face fit issues with another type of earplugs. I have worn them for like 12-18 hour rides and have not faced any issues till now.

Hi

I am planning to go for the Loop plugs. Can you say how effective they are after use for a good span of time after purchase?

Cheers

I have been using them since January and as these are made out of silicone they don't suffer from any degrade in performance.

Ear plugs

I have been using these earplugs during my rides for the last month or so. I bought them off Amazon and they cost Rs.100 for a pack of 10. Though I could live with the exhaust sound, the wind noise above ton up speeds is horrible and very tiring.

I was reading up in the forum and I saw recommendations for 3M and Honeywell. I went for Honeywell because of the connecting string and the individual packing.

It claims to make a difference of 29 db and it actually does. To be honest, I was not expecting much and ended up being very happily surprised.

I have ordered the Loop ear plugs which are more "advanced" and reusable. I will post my experience after using the same.

Cheers

Well, the 3M 1110 corded foam ear plugs also come with connecting string and in individual packing. I believe that's a common way these ear plugs are sold. As these are disposable ear plugs, they come in individual packing.

I have been using these ear plugs since many years and now I can't ride on highway without wearing them. It's indeed an essential riding accessory for a motorcycle rider.
