These are the most comfortable and water-tight ear plugs I''ve tried! You can''t tell from the photos, but they''re super soft and and squishy. I can wear them for long periods and I forget they''re even there. You can also hear "enough" with them in. They''re not so thick that you''re totally oblivious to people around you. But it would be hard to hold a conversation with someone that isn''t right next to you.

These ear plugs work great. No issues and no water in my ears after a swimming work out!

Very difficult to get into my ear and won''t stay in place

One worked fine, I couldn''t get the other one to keep out water. Could be the shape of my ear.  My friend borrowed them and set they were ok.  Must wear a cap to keep from popping out

I can''t stand water in my ears while swimming - not a drop. I have tried probably 8 different plug types. My criteria are water tightness, stability (don''t loosen during workout), comfort and removeability. So far - these are the best. They actually score in each of my criteria. Certainly worth a try if you can''t stand water in your ear.

My daughter hates water in her ears she says it hurts and these ear plugs she says are the best she has to swim in junior high and that''s one less hassle she has to deal with in 5th grade so far they have not had a problem keeping her in the pool.
