POD EarSeal Dual-Flange Waterproof Earplugs - Designed for Swimmers
The POD EarSeal Dual-Flange earplugs provide a waterproof seal and natural sound awareness for swimming, surfing, bodyboarding, bodysurfing, and everyday ear protection. Made from soft, flexible, medical-grade silicone with a PC centre core, the dual-flange dome shape creates a secure outer-canal seal without deep insertion. A 9.5cm silicone anti-loss loop attaches to goggle straps or swim cap headbands for secure, convenient use.
Why Use Ear Protection?
Regular swimming exposes ears to constant splashes, chlorinated water, and repeated submersion - all common triggers for irritation, trapped water, and swimmer's ear discomfort. Whether you train in the pool or swim in open water, protecting your ears helps you stay consistent and comfortable across regular sessions.
The POD EarSeal keeps water out while maintaining enough natural sound awareness to remain connected to your surroundings. That balance matters for open-water swimmers, surfers, and bodyboarders who need to hear what is happening around them.
Built with Swim Caps in Mind
Most earplugs are designed without accounting for how a swim cap affects fit. Many swimmers wear silicone swim caps that apply gentle inward pressure over the ears. A deep-insertion earplug combined with a tight cap increases internal pressure and discomfort.
The EarSeal Dual-Flange deliberately uses a shorter insertion depth. The compact tear-drop dome shape creates a secure outer-canal seal without being driven further inward by cap pressure. This helps reduce pressure build-up while maintaining effective water protection.
