Why go deaf, indeed? Considering hearing aids can cost up to $10,000, or more, and tinnitus (ringing in the ears) is a permanent uncomfortable and annoying condition, there's no excuse when you can comfortably and easily use Mack's Original Soft Foam Ear Plugs to protect your hearing for just pennies a use.
These earplugs are made with super soft foam for maximum comfort and are reusable until dirty. They are perfect for extended wear in situations where your comfort is paramount.
Reduce noise volumes (NRR) up to 32 decibels, when used as directed, one of the highest noise reduction ratings available for hearing protection earplugs.
Molded with state-of-the-art, super low-pressure, slow-release Urethane comfort foam and fully skinned and tapered, Mack's Original Earplugs provide unmatched user comfort and hygiene. The bright user-preferred teal color makes them as easy on your eyes as they are in your ears.

Earplug installation instructions:
- With clean hands, roll an ear plug into a tight, crease-free cylinder.
- With opposite hand, reach over head and pull up and back on outer ear to straighten ear canal.
- Quickly insert earplug well into ear canal and hold in briefly until it expands for a comfortable, secure fit. Repeat for other ear.
- IMPORTANT: Improper fitting will reduce effectiveness and could result in hearing loss or injury.
Discard after several uses or as soon as dirt or wax accumulates on earplugs.
Ear Plug Removal Instructions - warnings and precautions:
IMPORTANT: Remove earplug slowly with twisting motion to gradually break the seal. Rapid removal may damage your eardrum.
IMPORTANT: Keep away from infants and small children. These earplugs are non-toxic, but may interfere with breathing if caught in a windpipe, which could lead to serious injury or death.
IMPORTANT: It's advisable to keep your ear canals clean and free of earwax. If you feel your earplugs may be impacting earwax, making it difficult to hear after removing them, immediately discontinue use and see an eye, ear and nose specialist.

FAQ
What are the foam earplugs made of and do they contain latex?
The earplugs are made of urethane foam. The "latex" in our foam earplugs is not natural latex, it is a synthetic latex technically called an emulsion polymer. It has the same properties as latex (water based, adhesive, etc.) but does not have the enzyme allergen problem associated with natural latex.
If, in the extremely rare instance you should experience any type of rash or skin irritation while using this product, please discontinue use immediately. Consult your doctor or go to your local medical emergency room if you believe you require immediate medical attention.
Can the earplugs be cleaned?
No. If these earplugs become soiled, they should be disposed of.
Besides reducing noise, can these earplugs be used to seal out water?
No. These earplugs were specifically designed to provide superior protection against noise. For water protection, we recommend that you try one of Mack's® moldable silicone or pre-molded flanged earplug products (sorry, Red Oxx does not carry these items).
First try re-inserting the earplugs after carefully re-reading the directions. Be sure to insert the ear plug while pulling (with the opposite hand) up and back on the outer ear to straighten the ear canal. If you are still unsuccessful with an ear plug that has now warmed to body temperature, try another "cooler" plug. An ear plug that is cooler in temperature will retain its compressed shape and rigidity slightly longer, sometimes making it easier to insert. A sign that the earplug is sealing properly is that your own voice will sound more internal and muffled.
