I was happy to find these larger ear muffs - the standard ones don't keep my ears covered well. Since I get terrible ear aches if even modestly cool air blows past my ears for more than a minute or two, it is important to me that my ear muffs cover & fit properly. These do a fine job at a reasonable price. I bought two pair just in case I lost or broke one over the winter. I have on occasion accidentally snapped the adjustable plastic headpiece on ear muffs in the past, it isn't that hard to do. So I recommend buying at least two pair of these nice big snug ear muffs!
