New snorkeler, long-time lap swimmer. Helps me swim longer, better, easier.
I'm starting to iron out all the bugs with adapting to a snorkel for lap swimming.<br /><br />As a long-time lap swimmer, I've used ear plugs for years. The ones I've used were similar to these. These are also silicone and are a bit longer and narrower. The "handles" on these are quite short, but adequate.<br /><br />Recently, I've started using a snorkel. I like it. I didn't like the feeling of drawing water into my nose. I needed a solution and found this set of nose clip and ear plugs. It really works!<br /><br />I'm not sure if this is a Childs' Size set or Adult Size, but the earplugs fit great and I'm a 62 year old male. The nose clip does fit but is really tight and pinches. I like that it doesn't let water in, but I wish it wasn't so tight. It is really a firm, powerful pinching device with two, small silicone pads to distribute the pressure for placement just below the bridge of your nose.<br />Otherwise, a nice set in a reusable, easy to open plastic case for storage.<br /><br />These are pretty pricey, even though the seller dropped the price by a dollar. Since shipping is included with most orders (above $25) then the seller is trying to recoup that, perhaps. Still, these would be fairly priced at about half what is asked. I saw a 6 Pack of this same set, assorted colors, for under $9, so Buyer Beware.
