Loop Engage 2 Ear Plugs – Everyday Noise Relief with Clear Speech for Social Gatherings, Work, Conversation, Parenting & Noise Sensitivity – 16 dB Noise Reduction Earplugs

i got a pair of loops when they first sort of became a thing. the difference between these and the first pair i had is huge, and i’d definitely recommend buying this pair if you also have an outdated pair of them. i’ve written a list of points about this version!firstly, the case and quality of the loops are so much better. the case actually holds the loops now rather than just chucking them in loosely.secondly, the case doesn’t just fall open after a while of use like my old ones did when they were attached to my sunflower lanyard.my next point is that the size of the actual loops and the size of the ear tips is SO much better to fit your ears. they actually sit in your ears now and you can easily find the right size. they are wearable for sleep as they don’t just fall out like the old versions.finally, the noise reduction is perfect. you don’t need to push them all the way into your ears and sound like you’re underwater anymore. when you find the right size ear tip, they sit perfectly to block out enough sound to still be able to hear but to continue on with your day comfortably at a reduced noise level.i cannot express how brilliant these are, especially for adults as well as children, which isn’t easy to find. these are perfect for anybody who is sound sensitive. although the price seems expensive, there are pros that outweigh any cons you might see or feel.

These are truly the best things I’ve ever bought! I often avoid busy places because of sensory overload, these have been a game changer! It filter out enough background noise but still allows me to hear everything.I wear them pretty much all the time and I feel so much calmer.I had tried cheaper versions but as I have small ear canals, they felt uncomfortable, the XS size is perfect and can barely feel them in my ears.These are excellent, I only wish I’d found them earlier

£30 feels like a bit much for these but they are a nice little product. Don't expect major noise reduction compared to heavy-duty concert earplugs (you can still hear nearby sounds, and I could hear people talking to me with no issues) but they do "take the edge off" a bit and and make me feel a bit calmer in loud areas. They are also excellent for minimal occlusion effect - my own voice does sound a bit louder but sounds are generally clear, I don't get the "muffled" effect, I could even eat food without feeling like the sounds of my own mouth were intolerably loud.They look discreet (I have lemon-lime green colour) and lie quite flat in my ears although the hard plastic "loop" was making one of my ears a bit sore after extended use. The case is a slim flat disc, quite small, and seems pretty sturdy - I tried dropping it from about a metre high and it did not open. The earbuds clip nicely into the case and it's easy to take them out / put them back without feeling like you're going to drop them. I did just put them in my pocket rather than clipping to my keys though, because (ironically since these are aimed at noise sensitivities) the plastic case makes an annoying clicking noise when it moves against metal keys.

I have autism and I 10/10 recommend. Absolutely love these! They allow you to have a conversation with the person next to you without hearing the unnecessary background noise. They are very lightweight and I sometimes even forget that they are in my ears!The sizes are amazing as they come with 4 different tip sizes so it definitely will fit you!I got the clear as I wanted something for discreet. I’ll add pictures incase anyways wants to see as when I was looking through the reviews wondering if I should buy them there were no photos of the clear ones!

I waited a long while to post this review so that it would be tested over time.And my goodness me, these little things changed my life.I have sensory issues with loud sounds (seriously loud underground trains, the cinema, baby having a tantrum or concentrated sounds in a small space) and I use these every and anywhere.They’re versatile, easy to find in the travel case they come with (I keep mine on a lanyard or in a purse but you can buy a Loop holder). I didn’t have any problem with the case; months down the line it still closes firmly and easily.For me, this is amazing value for money. They effectively turn the noise way down but still allow me to hear at a reduced volume.Size was a little tricky; I use the smallest earbuds. (There are newer designs now that address that.)Once I worked out my size and how to twist them in just right, I found them comfortable and of durable quality.Have recommended them to friends who have had similar amazing experiences. Stop thinking about it and do it !!!

I wear noise cancelling headphones but they are clunky and I wanted something that would allow me to look more normal and wear earrings, etc.When I tried the Loop 1 several years ago, they did not work for me - the stem was too thick and it caused ear pain. I needed to see a doctor after a few days of using them. My right ear never fully recovered tbh.When I heard that Loop 2 is softer and has a smaller stem, I was excited to give them a try. I went for iridescent version.Very pretty but unfortunately didn’t do it for me.They take the edge off without blocking the sounds but I don’t see the point. Sounds are still muffled and it distorts the way I hear my own voice so I end up speaking really loud. It makes socialising really awkward.If I wanted to take the edge off but still have clarity, I would much rather go for flares with 15db filter. At least they offer air circulation to prevent ear problems and sound reduction without muffling.

Helpful in noisy situations, although I can't get used to the volume of my own voice when I wear them.
