Are they wind-proof, that is, do they allow wind to get into the ear?

I use them for pre- and post-season driving in my convertible. I've had no trouble with cold seeping in - including highway speeds in low 40 temps. Unsure if using them in true frigid weather would keep you warm enough - but then again, layering is always best.

they seem to be sweat resistant, but they're nothing special. they seem to slip out of ears - so I sometimes wrap wire around ear to better secure.

No, none that I noticed. I actually wear them when riding a motorcycle and they cancel the wind noise as well. Haron

I have only used them when flying and they are very effective suppressing the noise and protecting my inner ears. They have dual type of usage for noise control...

yes...they are. They mold to the ear and keep the water out. I only need to use one divided in half to plug my ears.

I have not swam with them in. However I did wear them in the shower to test the water resistance. Not a single drop of water got past the ear plugs. I think swimming with them in should block the water, just make sure the ear plugs seal properly. Hope this was helpful!

I think they should be fine, I use them for a 17 mile bike commute to listen to the news, and unless there is a strong wind I can hear everything just fine on the news radio, but also leaves me free to hear anything approaching. I'm a fan of the product.

Yes, water-resistant, sweat-resistant. They are NOT waterproof, so no swimming with these, but rain/sweat will not mess up controls. Best Regards,Mike Emberswww.acousticsounddesign.com888-224-3663

Yes, the headphones are closed back so there is very little to no bleed through and they block out outside sounds pretty good as well.

Hi Juan, Wearing the headphones alone, they are secure. For swimming they are in the silicone case and so don't really hook over the ears then. You can sort of put them in place, but that wouldn't be enough to hold them there. The swimcap holds everything secure with the headphones just protruding down a little [see swimming image]. Hope that makes things clear.

The gloves are windproof. As to waterproof, I don't know. It does not rain where I live. They do handle sweat really well.

They are not noise canceling but they do have noise isolating. In other words they will block quite a bit but not everything. I like the way they feel. I have worn them for about 4 hours for my longest stretch. My ears got slightly warm at the 4th hour.

No, but they are in ear headphones so that helps reduce outside noise if you have a good fit.True noise cancelling headphones are a lot more expensive than these.

I would think so, they muffle conversations, music and other noise but you can still hear them. You will still be able to hear the dogs but it won't be as loud. I used these on my motorcycle and they weren't good for constant wind bombardment, but they were great for a show/concert I went to.

I can certify that they are water resistant. Not sure about water proof. They have been in my boat for 3 years and never failed. I put another pair in last year. I won't buy anything else. Great deal, great sound.

I wear them in the gym because the music is too loud when I take spinning and cardio classes. I would think they would block out wind noise too. They are very durable and you can wash them too. I have several pairs and have used them for a few years. Love love them.

Yes they are weather resistant but not weather proof (from the docs they supply).
