This is our best selling earmuff and the one we usually recommend because it is more comfortable than most. The Bilsom L3 ear muff features a non-deforming padded steel wire headband which is extremely durable. Even pressure contact on the entire ear helps avoid noise leakage. The L3 features special, high-density, slow-recovery foam ear cushions that contour to the ear and head. Telescoping height adjustment provides an individual fit that won't slip during wear. Exclusive snap-in ear cushions are easy replaced. NRR 30. Weighs 10.7 oz. Replaces the Howard Leight Leightning LM777.
Perfect for multiple applications including mowing the lawn, shooting ranges, leaf blowers, power tools, aircraft maintenance, studying, and any task where you want to protect your hearing.
This ear muff is very comfortable as advertised. I like the padded headband although i am worried the padding may get torn up if i hang it on things. They do not seem to press to hard on my head. The ear cups are comfortable and very quiet. Quieter than my last earmuffs. The ear pads are supposed to be replaceable but i am not sure where to get replacements. I pulled them off to see how that replacement would work and when i carefully replaced them i was required to bend the plastic clips that hold them on which became visibly stressed. I believe they would break altogether if i pulled them on and off a couple times. If I don't , i think they will hold up well. For the price I like them very well.
I would recommend this item to a friend.

Work well for what they claim to do. Great price. Others I found were approx 3 times the cost.
Pros:
VERY quiet set of hearing protection. Great for at the gun range where sounds get amplified.
Cons:
Wife felt as though they squeezed her head too much.
