Mack’s Swimming Headband – Best Swimmer’s Headband – Doctor Recommended to Keep Water Out and Hold Ear Plugs in - Official Swimming Ear Band of USA Swimming

I love lap swimming but have had so much trouble with water in my ears that I had almost given it up. I tried this out of desperation (together with the Macks soft ear plugs) and I am just amazed-- it really does work! I have used the band and the plugs four times so far this June and have not gotten any water in my ears. I almost cannot believe such an inexpensive and simple solution has virtually changed my life. I have been wearing the band underneath a silicone swim cap. Before having this, the swim cap would always lift up and away from my ears. Now, the band stays where it is supposed to be, snug over the ears, and the cap provides an extra level of protection. I am so happy I got this band and the plugs. Now if I could just get my goggles to stay consistently sealed and dry! Would just like to add, three years later, that I am still using this, and it still works so well. I have found that it is easier to put on if I put the velcro closing in front rather than behind. Easier to put on and take off, and covers my ear just as well if not better. I am getting several back ups of this! Several years later, still swimming, still using the neoprene band every time. Have discovered that it is easier to put on and works just as well is I close it in front, below my chin and then lift it up into place. I spend several minutes getting the ear plugs, band, silicone cap and then the goggles on, all very carefully, but it is so worth it to be able to swim for an hour with no water in my ears or my eyes.

This headband is great for kids &adults who swim frequently. This product has reduced swimmer ear infections.

It doesn't fit that well on a child's head. Kind of loose.

The band is very small and sized for a toddler's head. That being said, I did buy this same band approximately 15 years ago when my 2 year old punctured her ear drum and I had to keep water out of her ear during baths, swimming, etc. It was excellent then so I was happy to buy again years later with the hopes that this size would fit my other kid who has ALSO punctured her ear drum and is a teenager. But don't be fooled by the women in the picture because this thing did not even think about fitting an adult sized head. And to answer any burning questions you may have: No, I don't know why both of my daughters have each punctured their ear drums at very different stages in their lives. And yes, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my son does not become a member of the busted ear drum club that seems to be a thing around here. Why are kids the way that they are? So just know that merely trying this on my 14 year old's head was comical. 😂 To sum up: Yes for toddlers and younger! Hard pass for anyone who has a fully formed skull!

Great for ear infection kids.

My 10 year old doesn't like getting water in her ears and said she didn't want to wear ear plugs in our pool. I found this headband which says is good to use WITH ear plugs and I was unsure if this would work for her/block enough water from getting in without using ear plugs. Crossed my fingers and although I do help her put this on this works perfect, no water getting in to her ears, well at least enough for her to not notice! So relived because she said she didn't want to go underwater this year because her ears bothered her so much last year. The added bonus? This also acts as a head band so keeps all of her hair out of her face, Im going to order a backup just in case!

I bought this because my daughter has recurrent ear infections and she takes swim lessons. I have two problems with this band: it saturates and water gets through and it’s small that doesn’t fully cover ears. I bought a different one that does the job. This week I forgot the one that works and had to use Mack’s band. As expected, my daughter has now an ear infection and I used it with wax ear plugs.

I highly recommend this. Last summer we kept losing my daughters ear plugs. They would fall out in the pool or lake. This year we used the headband and it works great! Haven’t had any ear infections since we started using this. Only negative If her hair is not pulled back properly the Velcro will attach to her hair and it hurts to remove it.

Buen producto, cumple muy bien su propósito, es cómodo y bonito, lo recomiendo ampliamente

Our GP recommended ear protection for our daughter as she gets ear infections after swimming. This not only helps hold the silicone puttys in her ear, it also keeps hair out of her face. Great buy.

For adults its better to get bigger size I ordered this one and a bigger one I always use the bigger on It's comfortable and my ears don't fill up with pool water

Genial para toda la familia aunque la usa mi hijo en las clases de piscina ya que ha tenido algunos problemas de varias ototis y asi nos aseguramos que no le entra ni una gota de agua.
