What shooters say
Competition shooting approved (9major)
Fit was great (used the home mold kit with the help of my wife) and the 30db passive nr filters worked great shooting my USPSA 9 major open gun. Comfort was great even after over 6 hours of wear. Definitely recommend and Glenn was great to deal with.

How it works
Four simple steps, start to finish
Every set is made from impressions of your own ears. You take them at home with the kit we send you.
Step 1: Order
Choose your options and check out. Your home impression kit is included.
Step 2: Receive your kit
It ships 2 to 3 business days after we receive your order. Watch your email for the tracking number.
Step 3: Make your impressions
About 15 to 20 minutes at home, with a video that walks you through every step. You can do it yourself; a second person makes it easier.
Step 4: Send them back
Pack them in the same box and use the prepaid return label. We start building the day they arrive.
Then we hand-build your set in 40 business days from the day your impressions reach our lab and ship it to your door, with a 30-day fit warranty. If the fit is off, we adjust it.
Watch the kit, step by stepQuestions about the kit
What if my impression doesn’t come out right?
We check every impression before we build. If one needs to be redone, we send you another kit at no charge. The kit also has extra material in case you want a second try.
Do I need someone to help me?
No. You can take your impressions yourself by following the video. A second person makes it easier, because they can see into your ear, but you don’t need one.
When will my order arrive?
Your kit ships 2 to 3 business days after we receive your order. Once your impressions reach our lab, we hand-build your set in 40 business days and ship it to your door.
Already have impressions? If we made your last pair, choose “Big Ear already has my impressions” at checkout. From an audiologist? Mail them to Big Ear Inc, 101 Durden Park Row, Blythewood, SC 29016.
One pair. Years of wear.
Stop buying earplugs by the box.
Foam earplugs are made to be worn a few times and thrown out. Wear them every day and that adds up to hundreds of pairs a year, and a trash can full of them. A Big Ear set is molded to your ears once and built to last 7 to 10 years. Rinse it, put it in its case, wear it again tomorrow.
01
Fits like nothing off a shelf
Shaped from impressions of your own ears, so it seals without rolling, squeezing or pushing, and stays comfortable for hours.
02
Hundreds of pairs, replaced by one
Wear a fresh foam pair every workday and you go through about 250 pairs a year. One Big Ear set is built to last 7 to 10 years.
03
Less to buy. Less to throw away.
No restocking, no loose pairs in every pocket, and far less going in the trash. The practical choice happens to be the better one.
Hand-built in the USA
Made for your ears alone.
Not assembled overseas, not drop-shipped, not rushed. One pair at a time, for one set of ears at a time. We are proud of that, and we think you can hear the difference.
