Howard Leight Impact Sport Electronic Earmuff, 22 dB Noise Reduction, Black/Teal, Over-the-Head Design, Adult Size, 1 Pair

The Howard Leight Impact Sport electronic earmuff delivers hearing protection that doesn't sacrifice situational awareness at the range. Unlike passive-only muffs that muffle everything, these earmuffs use internal electronics to amplify quiet sounds—voices, commands, ambient noise—while instantly shutting down when gunfire hits 82 dB, letting the passive 22 dB noise reduction take over. That means you can hear your shooting buddy's feedback and range instructions in real time, without removing your protection.

Built with directional stereo microphones, the Impact Sport helps you pinpoint where sounds are coming from, a genuine advantage when working with coaches or hunting partners. The compact over-the-head design features low-profile ear cups angled to clear rifle stocks and shotgun receivers when you shoulder your gun. They fold flat into the adjustable headband for easy pack-out to the range or field. A built-in 1/8" AUX input (cable included) lets you plug in an MP3 player or radio if you want music or podcasts between shooting strings, and the automatic 4-hour shutoff preserves battery life so you're not constantly hunting for replacements.

Available in black/teal, these are adult-sized and come as a single pair—solid middle-ground hearing protection for shooters who want passive backup with active listening capability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these earmuffs work for shooting rifles and shotguns?

Yes. The low-profile ear cups are angled to provide clearance when you shoulder long guns, so they won't interfere with your stock or sight picture.

Can I use these at an outdoor range and still hear commands?

Absolutely. The electronic amplification boosts ambient sounds to a safe 82 dB, so you'll hear range officers, shooting buddies, and other conversations clearly. When gunfire occurs, the electronics shut down and passive protection takes over.

You get one pair of Impact Sport earmuffs and a patch cable for the 1/8" AUX input, allowing you to connect an MP3 player, radio, or other audio source.
