The Otis FGESH26 Ear Shield delivers reliable 26dB noise reduction rating (NRR) in a comfortable behind-the-neck design. This low-profile hearing protection allows shooters to maintain proper cheek weld and sight alignment without interference from traditional over-the-head bands.
What Makes This Different
The behind-the-neck configuration eliminates the common problem of headband interference with shooting positions, hats, and protective eyewear. Unlike bulky earmuffs that can shift during movement or create pressure points, the FGESH26 maintains consistent seal and comfort during extended shooting sessions. The lightweight construction reduces neck fatigue while providing professional-grade noise attenuation.

The FGESH26 excels in shooting sports where consistent cheek weld is critical for accuracy.
