Moulded Swimming Ear Plugs

Why Choose Custom Swim Plugs?

Generic swimming ear plugs can cause discomfort, let water seep in, and fail to protect against ear infections. Custom swim plugs, on the other hand, are moulded specifically to your ear’s shape.

This ensures a snug, comfortable fit, making sure your ears are fully protected—whether you’re swimming in a pool, lake, or ocean.

Benefits of Custom Swim Plugs:

Complete Water Protection: Prevents water ingress and reduces the risk of swimmer’s ear or other infections.
Maximum Comfort: Custom-fit plugs mean no more discomfort, pressure, or irritation, even after hours of use.
Durability & Longevity: Made from medical-grade silicone, these plugs are built to last, resisting damage from pool chemicals and saltwater.
Improved Performance: Focus on your technique and enjoyment in the water, without worrying about water getting into your ears.

Moulded Swimming Ear Plugs FAQS

How do you insert swimming earplugs?

To insert swimming earplugs, follow these simple steps:

Clean Your Hands: Always wash your hands to ensure they are clean before handling earplugs.
Prepare the Earplug: If you have custom-fit plugs, make sure they are ready for use. For disposable plugs, ensure they are free from any debris.
Position Your Head: Tilt your head slightly to the side opposite to the ear you are inserting the plug into.
Insert the Earplug: Using your opposite hand, pull your outer ear slightly upward and outward to open the ear canal. Gently push the earplug into your ear canal, ensuring a snug fit without forcing it in. For custom plugs, it may be necessary to twist them slightly while inserting.

Check the Fit: Ensure the earplug is comfortably inserted and creates a seal in the ear canal to keep water out.

Are swimming earplugs safe?

Yes, swimming earplugs are safe to use, especially when they are custom-made for your ear canals.

Custom swim plugs are crafted from medical-grade silicone, ensuring they are both safe and comfortable. They effectively create a barrier that prevents water from entering the ear canal, which can help reduce the risk of infections.

It’s important to follow care instructions and ensure the plugs fit properly for optimal safety and effectiveness.

Can you hear with swimming earplugs?

While swimming earplugs block water from entering your ears, they typically do not completely block sound.

Many people can still hear sounds around them, although it might be muffled. Custom swim plugs are designed to create a snug fit, which will minimise sound transmission while effectively keeping water out.

If hearing is crucial while swimming (for instance, in a competitive setting), I can help you find the right balance with your custom plugs.

Can you swim with an ear infection with swimming earplugs?

If you currently have an ear infection, it’s best to avoid swimming altogether until it has cleared up. Swimming can potentially worsen an existing infection, and using earplugs may not provide adequate protection.

Once the infection has healed, custom swim plugs can help prevent future infections by blocking water from entering your ear canal, making them a great option for swimmers who are prone to ear issues.

Can I wear swimming earplugs with narrow ear canals?

Yes, you can wear swimming earplugs even if you have narrow ear canals. Custom swim plugs are specifically moulded to fit the unique shape and size of your ear canals, including narrower ones.

This personalised fit ensures that the plugs will comfortably and effectively keep water out while providing you with the protection you need. If you have narrow ear canals, it’s especially important to get custom plugs to ensure they fit securely without discomfort.
