The Allen 4126 Passive Children's Hearing Muff delivers reliable 23dB noise reduction rating (NRR) specifically engineered for young shooters and outdoor enthusiasts. This lightweight hearing protection combines effective sound dampening with comfortable all-day wear for children and youth users.
What Makes This Different
Unlike adult hearing protection that often slips or creates pressure points on smaller heads, the Allen 4126 features a youth-specific headband design with reduced clamping force. The adjustable headband accommodates head sizes from small children through teenagers while maintaining consistent seal integrity. The 23dB NRR provides substantial protection against harmful noise levels without over-dampening important environmental sounds like range commands or hunting communication.
Key Features
- 23dB Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) certified for hearing protection
- Youth-sized adjustable padded headband fits ages 6-16
- Lightweight polymer construction reduces neck strain during extended wear
- Soft foam ear cushions create comfortable seal without excessive pressure
- Compact folding design for easy storage in range bags or hunting packs
- Bright light blue color for high visibility and safety identification

The passive design requires no batteries or electronic components, making these muffs completely reliable in all weather conditions. The foam padding compresses evenly around young ears to block harmful decibel levels from firearms, power tools, lawn equipment, and motorsports while allowing normal conversation. The durable construction withstands drops, impacts, and temperature extremes common in outdoor activities.
