Aqua Plugz Hypo-Allergenic Silicone Ear Plugs

What's the Australian for 'ear plugs'? - just kidding but think of that famous or infamous beer TV commercial :) I've been swimming since I was three and for the last half of my swimming career I've been wearing ear plugs and, off all the brands and models I tried so far, these Zoggs are the best I could find. They may not be 'best' for everyone and there may be some plugs out there that I would find better but, until I actually stumble upon them, these will stay at the top of my list. First some quick specs: - Soft silicone. - Shaped to cover the outer ear with the rest of the plug going sufficiently deep but not as deep as to cause discomfort. - Hypo-allergenic says on the package (isn't all silicone?) - Come with a pretty good carrying case where you actually 'plug' the Plugz in - makes it less likely to lose them. - Fitted and shaped specifically for the right and left ears. The Right and Left Plugz are clearly marked with an R and an L. - Semi-transparent, light blue - pretty looking but would become nearly-invisible if dropped in the pool. - Come with instructions on how to wear them properly. - Made in Taiwan. My experience with the Zoggs Plugz is of an almost Zen-like realization that I should have started using them a long, long time ago. I tend to spend more than one hour at a time swimming in the pool and, before Zoggs, some discomfort would set in after 10-20-30 minutes (depending of model) of swimming with plugs in my ears. It's not happening when I use the Zoggs. The water stays out but the Plugz are gentle enough not to create the level of pressure that would create discomfort if worn for extended periods of time. My rating is a 5-star, without hesitation. With the Zoggz Plugz in I can have fun while swimming without risking ear infections or feeling like a gallon of water was splashing inside my head after the swimming is over. ________________ 2011 Update: I was happy enough with the Plugz in 2010 to be using them again - a new pair, of course - in 2011. They are effective (keep the water out), comfortable and durable.

These earplugs are designed to create a watertight lock and used properly, they will. I get them wet first. It's necessary to squeeze the small part that extends out. They don't create any drag in the water as they're quite flush with the ears. The case frequently opens on its own and they fall out easily. But it's better than not having the case since they're small and nearly see-through. This is my first set of earplugs and I won't be without earplugs again. Swimmer's ear is way too inconvenient and this prevents it.

These plugs are the best. They do a great job of keep water out of your ears. They last long and if they do fall out. They float which is a plus when you’re trying to find them. They are very comfortable and I honestly don’t feel them in my ears when I swim. They also hold up to all of the flip turns and crazy water movements. They fit very nicely too. Which was a little scared of because most earphone buds don’t fit my ears. Highly recommend if you need something to protect your ears while swimming. A tip would be to put them in first then your cap. Pull your cap down over your ears for extra support. Overall, highly recommend!

These are a little tricky to get to stay in my ears. They do keep the water out well, but I have to adjust them a bit.

This is the best ear plugz I bought so far ... easy to use, work great, stays in the ears all the time during the swim in the pool. I'm swimming for a 30 minutes straight and never worry even check if plugs are still tight. The great part about them its the once the year in the water, they kind of attach to the ear more and create the perfect protection, but when you don't swim, the plugz are looses justg a little bit, so you can hear whats going on. It comes with case which is very practical and do not have to worry about storage. The design is simple and you don't really have to look at the left and right labels to understand which one goes to what ear. So far this product exceed my expectations.

My friend recommended that I get earplugs because I was getting dizzy while swimming (with all of the water going in and out of my ears), so I came across Zoggs Aqua Plugz on Amazon. They were cheap and came with a case so I thought I'd try them. They work fantastic. No water got in my ears. They are comfortable, easy to put in your ears, and easy to get out. Highly recommend these for all swimmers!

As a regular lap swimmer, I was disappointed with these earplugs for the following reasons: 1. The short stem, which is grasped by one's thumb and index finger to help insert the plug within the ear canal, is too short, therefore difficult to grasp, making the insertion into the ear cumbersome. 2. The portion that penetrates and seals the canal is too soft and squirmy making it difficult to penetrate and seal the ear canal. 3. It is a pain to have a left and a right plug, especially so since they are marked poorly. The embossed "L" or "R" are difficult to see. It would be better if the left and right plugs were of different colors. 4. I always find the case open in my gym bag with the "escaped" earplugs relocated in the bag. The case should snap closed more securely. 5. For me, there are better choices, often less costly as well.

I never had issues with water in my ears until recently, so I decided to look into ear plugs and found these to be very comfortable. I swam 30 laps first go and I forgot all about them whilst swimming, until I stopped then i found the need to take them out to realise the pressure in my ears! not sure if thats just me or if all plugs do the same? They are very easy to put back in (even stood in the pool). Overall I am very pleased and will purchase a back up set as I know I will lose atleast one of the plugs one day!

Good quality and work so well. I no longer get water in my ears from swimming. Highly recommend for prevention of ear infections. Comfortable to wear and comes in a handy storage case.

Super petits bouchons d'oreilles. Acheté pour mon mari qui a une otite et bien elles sont super elle tiennent bien et le protège bien. L'eau ne rentre pas.

Protecteur peu qualitatifs. Ils sont acceptables pour une utilisation occasionnelle pais bien trop bon marché dans leur conception/design/qualité pour une utilisation plus intense.
