Unlike some other ear guards, like the old clam shells, that basically just press against your ear to immobilize it; these ear guards have a little pocket for your ear to go into and roam freely. This makes it much more comfortable.

The picture makes it look like they may be a little too thick and interfere with squeezing your head through tight places, but I've found them to be no worse than any other ear guards in that respect.

The straps are nylon with velco which I have found to be just as secure as the plastic kind, but a little more comfy.

All in all a very good product. 4 stars

My son and daughter loves this headgear...I like all the colors it comes in and you never have a problem with the strap over the eyes. Or we haven't.

I think it's a little big for a 5-6 year old and doesn't really adjust to fit as well as I would like it to (we had a problem with it this past weekend slipping to the side and not being able to make it tight enough)....better for the 7 and up, i would think. It sturdy and very cushioned.

5 stars

This is the best headgear my son has ever used. Coverage is good, fit is perfect. I would never use any other 5 stars
