Unlike your typical foam plugs, which require much kneading and adjusting, Radians® Rad Band Ear Plugs are easy to insert - just spread the band, position, and release. The soft, comfortable Jelli™ Plugs are completely washable, and therefore reusable, amounting to big savings over time. When you aren't using them, the included neck cord keeps them safely around your neck. And unlike noise reduction headphones, the Radians® Rad Band is lightweight, cool in the summers, and will work well with your safety glasses.
