If you are hesitant to buy these, don't be. They work amazingly well. I have very small ears, and their XS size fit perfectly without hurting my ears at all. I've been to two concerts so far, and the noise didn't hurt my ears, and I didn't have any ringing in my ears after. So the Loop Ear Plugs are doing their job. It does muffle the music sound ever so slightly, and I was definitely having trouble hearing the person next to me talking. But they are light years better than traditional foam earplugs. So grateful to have found these to protect my hearing. And grateful that hearing protection is now a cool thing because it's so important.
I attended BTS in Toronto, and these ear plugs came highly recommended for the concert. These worked amazingly. The crowd was insanely loud and I was on the floor by the speakers. The ear plugs filtered out the noise and I was able to hear the music and singing perfectly. I cannot believe the difference in sound between wearing the plugs and not having them in. They are comfortable, really cute, and the silicone is super soft. There were three plug sizes to choose from, but the standard/medium size was the best for my ears. I will definitely be using these again at the next concert I go to. These are well worth the investment to save your hearing. The next morning my hearing was intact and I had no ringing or buzzing. I also highly recommend getting the magnetic connector cord for them! Super useful for the intermission if you do not want to have the ear plugs in the whole time.
I recently wore these to a Weezer concert, and they were excellent. I could still hear the music clearly, but they took the edge off the volume so the speakers weren’t hurting my ears. I could enjoy the show without the sound being uncomfortable.They’re also great if you sleep next to someone who snores loudly. They help reduce the noise, and I find them comfortable even when lying on my side. That comfort makes them useful for more than just concerts.
I have been using Flare Audio Calmer ear plugs for years, but the inability to tether the darn things (with as expensive as they are) is a real problem. I finally decided to give Loops a go...They are pretty. Fit nicely/easily and are comfortable to wear. Lanyards are made for them, so they can't go adventuring without me. Washable/reusable.They are simply not the same audio suppression profile as Calmer. I started using Calmer in offices at industrial settings to better suppress the high machinery noise that permeates the office despite being under 80dB, to better be able to concentrate while still being able to monitor office activities and communication. Calmer, tones down that high pitch of machinery while letting me hear conversations in other rooms without much change in tone-we tend to talk between rooms to save time and legwork. The Loops suppress noise across the board but the high pitch whine is still there like nails on a chalkboard. These Loops are like light ear plugs. Not a substitute for my Calmers.
I brought these silver Loop earplugs with me to CRSSD Festival, and they absolutely saved my ears!The sound quality at the stages was incredible, but it was incredibly loud. These earplugs managed to filter out the damaging, deafening decibels perfectly without muffling the actual music. I could still hear the bass and the clarity of the tracks perfectly, and I didn't experience any of that awful post-festival ringing in my ears.On top of working flawlessly, the silver finish looks super sleek and stylish—almost like a piece of jewelry rather than standard earplugs. They fit comfortably and securely all day and night. If you hit up music festivals or live shows frequently, these are a non-negotiable must-have!

Just to preface and help sell you on these ear plugs:I wore these to a sold out rock concert consisting of ‘From Ashes to New’, ‘Coheed & Cambria’, and ‘Shinedown’ at Thompson Boiling Arena in Knoxville, TN (an indoor venue that accommodates up to 25k people). To say it was a loud event is an under statement.I was skeptical on the Loop earlier plugs because I thought it was a lot of money and it might not be that good. I decided that there is no price on the protection of one’s hearing. These were the best purchase I could have made and are an absolute game changer. I wore these from 6:50pm to 11pm and they did great! After 5 hours of wear, my ears didn’t hurt and they didn’t ring. The overall volume was taken down a notch without sacrificing the music. I could hear people, but not someone beside me. You will hear yourself signing and/or talking, but just note that no one else will!I love the case, as it is small, portable and can be thrown into my wristlet. The case does a pretty good job on holding the ear pieces, but I would not trust the carrying loop at the top as it is just a plastic cord, very similar to what you would string bigger jewelry beads on. For me that is not a make or break, like I said I kept it in my wristlet at the concert and it was fine.If you made it to the end of the review, just buy they already! How much more convincing do you need?
I'll update this after I go to a concert. But.I went to a concert last Saturday night. It's now Wednesday. My ears have been ringing and very sensitive to plastic, paper, bags, typing, frogs... everything. I have tinnitus right now. It's awful.Never had this issue be this severe or have the ringing persist more than two days. Had to see my doctor to get steroids.Bought these earbuds to help reduce sound at future concerts and also daily while I'm recovering.I have been unable to type at full speed (which is causing problems as a writer...) due to the shrillness of the sounds. Then I put these in.Flushing the toilet hurt. Then I put these in.Filling up my Brita hurt. Then I put these in.Yes, I'm still hearing the ringing, but I'm not constantly bracing for the worst possible sound in the world every second.So far, these are AMAZING. For the first time in FOUR DAYS I am not wincing constantly, I can work, I can play, I am about to sleep without my Spotify counting my favorite song as "White Noise to Sleep To."I have several more concerts coming up and will definitely update my review.Size: Medium in both ears right now. But I could see the right ear needing a larger plug sizeWeight: Very lightweight. I hardly notice them.Color / Appearance: Pretty and matches my gold earrings well.Comfort: Very comfortable. I hate wearing earplugs and earbuds. These don't bother me at all. No "suction" feeling. No pop when I remove them. No weird underwater feeling. No pressure to my ears at all. Far more comfortable than my Bose and JBL ear pods.Noise reduction: Perfect for what I need them for daily right now. Mechanical keyboard is not sounding shrill, paper bags don't make me reel with pain, aluminum foil has been bested. Plastic bags no longer sound like knives scraping against tile.
These earplugs are pretty great for loud environments! They are very easy to put on and are well constructed. They are very comfortable as well. My only grief with them is if I’m at a concert and I’m singing and have these in, I can hear myself louder than anything around me. I guess that’s a good thing because that means it’s protecting your hearing and is sealing off sound correctly, but I’m a singer so I have to keep one earplug in and the other out😅 still pretty great though!! Music sounds great when you have these in, so you don’t have to worry about destroying your experience at a concert. Pretty great product!
