Great idea, I often wear cowboy hats so I could modify one for the trip! Cheers for that 👌🏻

You are absolutely right! I never used to mind it's only in the last few years it has seemed to come up, I absolutely love the outdoors so it's a shame! If it came to sacrificing the birds and waterfalls, I'll just put up with the bugs 😆

I ride too, i can definitely feel the difference since I first started. Random high pitch whines that come and go, probably the start of tinnitus. I should probably wear them when I ride but I just love the grumble of a cruiser! I'll give that a look in to though, thank you!

Can anyone reccomend me some Earplugs for my upcoming honeymoon in Glencoe? We plan on lots of hiking and water sports you name it, however I've noticed I'm sensitive to the noise of insects. Not all the time , usually when they suddenly fly past your ear, and I don't want to be up a mountain and be startled by a passing fly that I then fall to my death 😂

I'm going with my husband so I need something that blocks that but also allows for conversations, and the ability to hear upcoming danger but also enjoy the sounds of nature like birds and waterfalls...

The foam ones block too much sound, I also have tiny ears even for a 6 foot 4 woman, that they just fall out.

Any help much obliged!
