I can’t get on with these because of the fitting, and/or the tips. I’ve used the memory foam and the silicone tips, and they’re just uncomfortable for me. It may well be also due to the form factor, with there not being a set way to fit them; I’m constantly adjusting and touching them. They are very small, and the part that you handle can feel quite sharp. The finish on the end where the tip fits feels sharp and rough from however it’s made. The cardboard packaging is not the easiest thing to open, and I’m not a fan of the alternative cloth pouch that it comes with. A small plastic container would be better.

These are a great product.
I’ve tried the black and clear versions with silicone and memory foam tips.
In social settings they really help to lessen the impact of harsher sounds.

For a gym or sport setting they don’t quite hit the spot, but the Flare team have been wonderful at listening to my needs and trying to find something that would suit.

Reach out to them

Fit and work great. Calmer is a good name. I'm calmer in the same environment.

I wear them while working at the computer, driving in the car, walking the dog. And they noticeably take the edge out of noise.

A few days ago a was passing a creek with a little waterfall and was startled, even disoriented because of the unusual distinction between the different sounds. With the naked ear this is the typical waterfall noise, but with the Calmer Performance in the ears, I could make out that each part of the waterfall in fact made a specific noise. They were clearly seperated.

Price? Wow, steep for a little plastic. But I get it, shipping and R&D is included in the price. That's why you guys can come up with these innovations. I appreciated the Blackfridy deal though.
