  • Delivery & Lead Time

    Our standard lead time is approximately 3 weeks from receipt of your ear impressions, but this can be up to 4 weeks during very busy periods.

    We also offer a 4 working day express turnaround for an additional £50, if you need your order urgently. This is 4 working days from receipt of your ear impressions to despatch of your order.

    We use a next day tracked Royal Mail service for all U.K orders except for some accessories which are sent using Royal Mail 48.

    International orders are posted via courier. If you have any specific requests regarding the courier company you’d like us to use, please contact us.

  • Adjustments & Returns

    If you receive your earplugs and are unhappy with the fit or comfort, simply let us know within 30 days of receiving your order and we can make the necessary adjustments free of charge.

    If we are unable to rectify the issue after 2 adjustments, we can manufacture a new set of earplugs free of charge, if you supply a new set of ear impressions.

    We unfortunately do not offer refunds as all our products are completely bespoke.

  • Ear Impressions & Ordering Process

    If you require ear impressions, simply select ‘arrange an appointment for me’ when ordering above.

    Once you have placed an order with us our team will be in touch to organise your ear impression appointment at one of our impression taking partners.

    We have over 300 UK ear impression taking locations across the UK (£30 to £50) or you can visit us at our offices in Petts Wood, Kent (£30) or at one of our events.

    We can now also offer a home visit service (£50) upon special request. This may be helpful if you are looking for swimming earplugs for your children, as lots of audiology clinics do not offer impressions for those aged 18 or under.

Description

Our Swimming Earplugs are bespoke earplugs designed specifically for swimmers who need reliable protection from water ingress. Whether you're swimming recreationally, training regularly, competing, surfing or participating in other water sports, our moulded swimming earplugs provide a secure watertight seal to help keep your ears dry and protected.

Each pair is manufactured from your own ear impressions to create a fit unique to your ears. Unlike generic swimming earplugs, the custom design follows the exact contours of your ear, providing superior comfort, stability and superior water-blocking performance. The full-shell design offers additional security in the water, ensuring the plugs remain comfortably in place while swimming, diving or enjoying water-based activities.

Our Swimming Earplugs are particularly beneficial for individuals who are prone to ear infections, suffer from swimmer's ear, have perforated eardrums or have grommets fitted. By preventing water from entering the ear canal, it helps reduce the risk of irritation, infection and other complications associated with repeated water exposure. It is also an excellent solution for those looking to prevent the onset of surfer's ear caused by prolonged exposure to cold water and wind.

Manufactured using our own unique flexible medical-grade silicone, our Swimming Earplugs offer outstanding comfort and durability. The hypoallergenic material is gentle on sensitive skin, easy to clean and designed to withstand years of regular use.

Unlike disposable or one-size-fits-all alternatives, custom swimming ear plugs provide a consistent seal every time you enter the water. This not only improves comfort but also delivers greater confidence, allowing you to focus on enjoying your swim rather than worrying about water entering your ears.

Whether you're a competitive swimmer, open-water enthusiast, surfer or parent looking to protect a child's ears during swimming lessons, our Swimming Earplugs provide a comfortable, durable and highly effective solution for keeping water out and protecting long-term ear health.

Customer reviews

Would I recommend, 100 per cent...

I have been using the swim plugs as I get a lot of ear infections, these have now massively reduced, the plugs are comfortable, the staff knew what they were doing and all in all a great company. Would I recommend, 100 per cent...
— Bennie Edwards Denton

They are perfect

I have had the swimming ear plugs for 6 months now and they are perfect. I have had recurring issues with my ears from water for a long time and I now swim several times a week with no issues. I have just received a set of plugs for my motorbike and again they are absolutely spot on and very comfortable. Couldn’t be happier with the products and service.
— Rob Seaton

Best earplugs I've ever had

Best earplugs I've ever had. I swim everyday and have not had an ear infection since wearing my ultimates. Have recommended them to all my swimming friends. The whole process from getting the molds to receiving them this company knows about customer service as they keep in touch letting you know the whole process.
