I am looking into hearing protection for this coming season. I've Seen some on the Forum from Lee Valley.

I recently saw some at lowes that were simialar. I read the reviews and it had mixed reviews Some love some hate. The ones that hated it ALL had the SAME problems. Has anyone used the Lee Valley ones? I want something good and reliable. I do get tired of listening to the same stuff so radio might be nice for occasional use.

I run with Stihl, tried the cheap ones and i'll never go back....

This is what i wear now, a bit pricey but worth every dime:D
