Ultra Soft for the Win - I Tried Them All.
By MJG on August 7, 2017
From left to right in photos Slim Fit (purple), Dream Girls (pink), Snore Blockers (green), Original (aqua), Ultra Soft (brown). I have read other reviews stating that macks changed the size of the Ultra Soft recently, so I am posting a photo of the packaging for mine. The Ultra Soft are my favorite (even though they are not an exciting color) because they block noise, compress really well so that they are easy to insert, and don't feel like they are forcibly pushing against my ear canal once they have expanded. The Originals are a close second (just a bit shorter and slightly more slender than the Ultra Soft), so I will use them as well. I found that the Slim Fit were somehow hard to get into my ears (in spite of being slim) and didn't block enough noise. The Dream Girls fit really well but usually didn't stay in all night (and I sometimes worried they would get shoved down too far to get out). The Snore Blockers truly block the most noise, but they push too hard against my ear canal to be comfortable for long periods. The Macks brand ear plugs have not caused irritation or itching in my ears (other brands have), but I throw them away after one use so I can't speak to durability. Wish I could say that I received a discount in my quest for the perfect plug, but I purchased all at full price on Amazon and just decided to write a review comparing them because I had a hard time differentiating based on the product descriptions.

Buyer Beware, many of the 5-star reviews are for the old design. If anyone finds earplugs that are similar to the old design, please let me know!

Buyer beware: the design has changed (for the worse)
By Audio on November 30, 2016
I ordered these a year ago in October 2015 and they were the best earplugs I've ever used. I ran out October 2016 and placed an order for more and the newer earplugs are some of the worst I have used. The good ones (pictured left) are noticeably shorter and fatter and appear to have a smooth glossy finish. The bad ones (pictured right) are taller and thinner. They are skinny and do not do a good job of creating a seal. The noise they block out is significantly less than the old design likely due to the bad seal and more porous foam used.By Audio on November 30, 2016

I just requested an exchange because either the package I received is defective or Macks has changed this product. The new container I received has ear plugs that are a slightly different color and that are bigger than the last 2 containers. Concerned because these had been working perfectly and the new ones don't stay in my ears at all and don't block any sound whatsoever. If the new package is the same as what I got most recently, I'll be shopping for new ear plugs again.

Different than before!
By KJ on August 12, 2016
UPDATE: I was able to exchange these and got the smaller ones (as shown in the picture from my earlier review), which was great. Just reordered and got the bigger ones again. They have definitely changed their product without saying anything. These are not better. They don't stay in my ears at all, or block any sound. On to new earplugs due to product change...AGAIN.By KJ on August 12, 2016

Disappointed at new shorter length
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 1, 2020
Very disappointed in these ear plugs, I have owned Macks ear plugs for a long time, always found them to be comfortable and did the job very well!Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 1, 2020
I was almost out of my old ones so ordered these thinking that they were going to be just as good, unfortunately they are now slightly shorter in length so I can’t get them into my ears as far as my old ones, hence they don’t block out the noise as good as I was expecting.
I’m now £14.49 out of pocket with 50 pairs of ear plugs I can’t use!

Itchy and uncomfortable
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 17, 2019
I have been using these ear plugs for over 2 years (I changed to a new pair every night) and they have been great. But they've now changed the material and they're itchy and uncomfortable.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 17, 2019
In the attached picture, the old version is on the left, and the new one on the right. It should be noted that both of these are UNUSED. That white stuff on the new one is very odd, and might explain why they are itchy...?
I'm now going to have to try to find another brand, as there is no way i can wear these - one night of discomfort was enough.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 28, 2016
These earplugs are a bit cheaper then the "Slim fit" that I've also bought and use. They might be slighty bigger than I need for my ear canals, but it's really not a problem. I do have small ear canals, so any average sized ones would have no trouble at all with these.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 28, 2016
They offer good comfort, as they are nice and soft. I can easily wear these for hours with no discomfort. They are easy to use and insert, unlike certain other earplugs. And you get really good noise reduction, supposedly more than the "Slim fit" which I believe, I can notice when I ride motorcycle. But never the less, both works well, and easy to use. The value I also pretty good, decent quantity for the quality they offer, but I also find them easy to re-use, and they do even state on the package that re-use is no problem. Just throw away when they get "too" dirty or before they lose their ability to work as intended. They also come in a nice little container, that labels the earplugs, contain them, and easily dispenses earplugs.
(A good tip: Always bring a spare pair or two. If you go for a bike ride, and you some how lose one or the pair, you want to have an extra pair, or if you re-use yours, they might get dirty or start to loose their effectiveness)
(I have added a picture of the two earplugs for size comparison, beige (left) is the "Ultra" and the purple (right) is the "Slim fit")
