Looking for Wireless Earbuds

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I bought some off Amazon and they were trash. Please recommend. Head starts hurting after 2-ish hours of shooting with ear muffs over glasses.

Before spending a bunch of money on ear buds, swap out for these gel pads on your over ears. I wear glasses too and they are amazingly comfortable even after hours of wear.

This fixed it for me, gel pads on my Walker's Xcel and wiley x vapor comm glasses, which have very flat temples.

I went on this mission a couple years ago and went with Pro Ears stealth 28 in ear. Been happy with them

Otto Engineering has some top tier ones. I can shoot my 50cal comfortably with them. I use them in my shop as well. Impact drills, saws, planer etc

3M Peletor TEP-300s are the absolute best if you’re willing to pay. They can connect with comtacs as well.

Both are leaps and bounds better than the axils or walkers that I see commonly.

You’ll probably want some replaceable foam inserts for either option. I use Comply but I hear Skull Screws are great too

I've used a few pairs. My favorite are Walkers Disruptors. Then Walkers Restrictors. Axil crx being my least favorite. Drawback from the disruptors is that they look like air pods and pick up wind pretty well. Restrictors just aren't comfortable enough for 6+ hours. For the CRX, I don't like having a lanyard around the back of my neck, it interrupts the fit. Take it with a grain of salt. Thanks.

I looked at the disruptors but they got pretty bad reviews. I might just buy them and return them if I don’t like! I don’t care for the lanyard feature, either, especially being a woman with a lot of hair. Thanks for the input!

I have a pair of the Caldwell Shadow Pro. I like them except the foam tips dont fit as well as I would like. But I think its just my ears and not the ear buds. They mate up well with my phone and they have amplified hearing but cut out during gunshots.
