These are great earplugs.

The various earplugs all fit great.

The white and purple are good for musicians, Dj's, and shop work, yard work, anywhere you need to still hear what's going on around you.

The foam earplugs are amazing if you need to sleep without being disturbed.

The purple ones can also be used for swimming and showering.

White - Sound reduction SNR27DB

Purple - Sound reduction SNR15DB

Foam - Sound reduction SNR33DB

They include a leash for the silicone plugs and a carrying case for the foam plugs.

Also included with the kit is a very nice metal carrying case with O-ring seal, to keep in your pocket or on a keychain, so you have great hearing protection with you at all times.

Here is a list of industry standard noise levels.

For a better grasp of industry standards, here are a few of the most common producers of noise levels that OSHA considers to be dangerous: lawnmowers, rock concerts, firearms, firecrackers, headset listening systems, motorcycles, tractors, power tools and industrial machinery. The use of hearing protection is strongly recommended during continued exposure to any of the previously listed environments, as all can deliver sounds in excess of 90 decibels.

Painful:

150 dB = Rock Concerts at Peak
140 dB = Firearms, Air-Raid Siren, Jet Engine
130 dB = Jackhammer
120 dB = Jet Plane Take-off, Amplified Music at 4-6 ft., Car Stereo, Band Practice
