all the other silicons leaked into my sinus ,this one molds better for me
i use these for my swimming class, they work well
If you pinch the plugs into a cone shape and position them in your ear, they completely block the water and pull out easily. I've used them during triathlons and they work great.
can't get a good seal.
I bought it to use during my swim practice and still could not figure out how to "shape" to my ears. The instructions are not helpful and the product is not easy to use.
I find these earplugs do a good job. Some have complained that they don't work well. Perhaps I am more persistent in seating them than most, but they work better for me than rubber or plastic plugs. It's important to keep the ear canal as free of wax as possible, because the presence of wax interferes with the seal. However, even with regular and thorough cleaning of the ear canals, preferably just before putting the plugs in, some wax gets absorbed by the silicone, and I would recommend changing to fresh plugs after 25 long swims or so, or let us say after 25 - 30 hours of swimming.
They fell out of my ears on the first lap and now are lost so they didn't serve the purpose of keeping the water out of my ears
I was hoping to find ear plugs, as they are named, but instead there are four wax blobs that you need to fit to your ear. Lots of luck getting a seal that doesn't allow water into your ear - even with a bathing cap. And multiple warnings about NOT putting the plugs into your ear canal (even recommends going to a hospital should you put them in to far; don't try to remove it on your own) makes these worthless.
I tried for 5 minutes to cram them in my ears. Basically got into the pool and they worked for 1 lap before one fell out and I lost it. The other didn't keep it's seal. Maybe there is some kind of special way to get them to work but I can't figure it out.
