Earplugs for sleeping from Alpine

Looking for ear plugs for sleeping? Maybe it's a snoring partner, a busy street or a hotel room with thin walls. Alpine's sleeping ear plugs are reusable, comfortable and made to wear all night. Not sure which pair fits? Here's your quick overview.

You might have searched for noise cancelling ear plugs. Ours work passively: no batteries, no electronics, just less noise reaching your ears.

  • SleepDeep: made for side sleepers and snoring partners. With 27 dB of noise reduction and a flush fit in the right size, you can sleep on your side without the plug digging in.
  • Silence: an all-round earplug for rest, focus and sleep, in four sizes from XS to L. Turns the volume down by 25 dB when you want to unwind, study or drift off.
  • SleepSoft: for nights when you want less noise but still want to hear your alarm. Its filters muffle snoring and background noise by 25 dB, while sounds like your alarm come through softer, not silent. Soft material, one size.
  • SoftSilicone: soft, flexible silicone that you mold to the shape of your ear. 28 dB of noise reduction, and it keeps water out too, so the same pair works for sleeping and swimming. Prefer silicone? This is your pick.

Choosing the right sleep earplugs

Not every night is equally loud, so start with what keeps you up. A snoring partner or a busy street? Go for more noise reduction, like SleepDeep (27 dB) or SoftSilicone (28 dB). Want to soften background noise and still hear your alarm? SleepSoft's filters are made for that.

Noise reducing ear plugs take the edge off the sounds that keep you awake, but only if they fit. The seal decides how much noise reduction you actually get, and how comfortable the plugs feel all night. A plug that's too small slips out. One that's too big feels tight and starts to bother you after an hour.

That's why Alpine Silence comes in four sizes, from XS to L. Pick the size that fits your ear and you get a snug, comfortable seal that helps your noise reduction ear plugs stay put, without that too-tight feeling. Not sure which size you are? Start with the sizing guide and try the fit before bedtime.

FAQ

Sleep earplugs are available both with and without sound filters.

• Sleep earplugs with a filter generally provide lighter attenuation than earplugs without a filter. Ideal for sleeping in unfamiliar surroundings or if you want to slightly reduce ambient noise. Our SleepSoft earplugs come with a filter.

• Sleep earplugs without a filter offer stronger attenuation to minimize ambient noise, but still allow you to hear enough to catch important sounds. No worries! With our SleepDeep earplugs, you will still hear your alarm clock.

Short answer: no. Soundproof earplugs don't exist, and neither does a plug that shuts out every sound. What earplugs do is reduce noise: they turn the volume down so sounds reach your ears softer.

Alpine sleep earplugs work that way. They're passive, so no batteries and no electronics, and they don't cancel noise the way active noise cancelling headphones do. SleepDeep has 27 dB of noise reduction, which is a measured rating of how much it reduces sound. How quiet your night feels depends on the noise, your fit and your own hearing.

Lying on your ear with a hard plug pressing into the pillow is no way to spend a night. That's why fit matters so much for comfortable sleeping ear plugs.

SleepDeep is designed for side sleepers. It comes in different sizes, so you can pick the one that sits flush in your ear. With a flush fit, nothing sticks out to press against your pillow, and you can stay on your side all night.

Not sure about your size? Try the fit before bedtime, so you know it feels comfortable when you're lying down.

Don’t settle for anything less than the best earplugs for sleeping? At Alpine, you can have custom sleep earplugs made. Thanks to the optimal fit, custom earplugs are not only very comfortable, they also stay in place all night. Custom sleep earplugs last up to 5 years, making them ideal for people who frequently use earplugs while sleeping.

Sleep is too important to leave to chance. Here's what you get with Alpine sleep earplugs:

  • Made for a full night. Soft, comfortable earplugs that reduce noise, so a snoring partner or a busy street stops running your night. SleepDeep has 27 dB of noise reduction.
  • Reusable: Rinse them, let them dry and use them again. Less waste, fewer pairs to buy.
  • The right fit. Alpine Silence comes in four sizes, from XS to L, so you can pick a pair that sits comfortably in your ear. Side sleeper? SleepDeep is designed for you.
  • Dutch design, since 1994. Alpine has been making reusable earplugs in the Netherlands for over 30 years. Our designs have won the Red Dot Design Award.
