I normally would use regular ear plugs when I cut the grass to try & protect my hearing.  Not too entertaining.  Then I tried listening to iHeart Radio or songs on my phone with the ear bugs.  Had to crank it up all the way & still couldn't hear much...probably not good for the hearing either.

I got these for Christmas & tried them out last week.  I Love them!  Sure not too stylish but they protect your hearing & you can listen to the radio at a normal level.  You can also plug in your smart phone to listen to your tunes or the iHeart Radio app. 

They are call 3M Tekk Protection Worktunes & I think my wife got them at Walmart.  Here is a link
