Does Not Block Out All Sound
One of the biggest reasons I've never bought proper ear plugs is that I like to hear everything going on around me. Whether it be sirens, cars passing or other noises to ensure that I am safe on the road.

A good set of Ear Plugs does NOT cut out all the noise. They restrict noise at certain decibel levels and allow sounds through of importance: speech frequencies, sirens, etc.

Save Your Hearing and Eliminate Noise Fatigue
Hearing loss is permanent! I'm sure we all know people that suffer some level of hearing loss in one or both ears, and it certainly compromises lifestyle.

Noise fatigue is one that we rarely consider. After even an hour of hearing the motorcycle pipes drone on, or even just the wind noise, people can be affected by fatigue. If you are considering or doing longer distance riding this impact only amplifies as the hours add up.
