Key Features

Ultra-Durable, Non-Slip Neoprene Design

Made from extra-thick neoprene, Ear Band-It Ultra offers durability and a secure fit. Its grippy inner lining prevents slipping, even during active water play. Perfect for swimming, surfing, or splashing around, it keeps water out and ear protection in.

Perfect for Ear Tubes & Sensitive Ears

Designed by an ear, nose, and throat specialist, Ear Band-It Ultra is ideal for those with ear tubes, perforated eardrums, or chronic ear infections. It provides an extra layer of protection over earplugs, helping to keep water out and reduce the risk of infections.

Bright, Fun Colours for Easy Visibility

Ear Band-It Ultra comes in a range of vibrant, high-visibility colours, making it easy to spot your child in the water. Whether at the pool, beach, or lake, these bold designs add an element of fun while ensuring extra safety and peace of mind for parents. Plus, the reversible colour options let swimmers switch up their style whenever they like!

Description

Comes in three different sizes. See sizing chart for more details below.

Ear Band-It®, the original patented swimmer's headband is now more than 20 years old, and we are pleased to offer the new and improved Ear Band-It® Ultra which features thicker, stronger neoprene material with a wider form factor for a more secure fit. In addition, Ear Band-It® Ultra has a new Grip-Tek™ neoprene inner lining that further improves resistance to slippage and it is available in a choice of great new, vivid colors plus a couple of subdued colors for adults who prefer not to make a poolside fashion statement. Keeping your moldable water ear plugs in has never been easier than with the new Ear Band-It Ultra earplug retaining headband!

Ear Band-It® Ultra Features and Benefits:

  • Made of 4.0mm 100% neoprene instead of thinner, lower quality neoprene blends just 2.0mm-3.0mm thick. This gives the Ear Band-It® Ultra the strength and comfort you and your kids want.
  • Grip-Tek™ neoprene lining, a proprietary (patent pending) custom embossing on the inner side of the headband designed to provide extra grip to help prevent the band from slipping during even the most vigorous water activities.
  • A unique new shape with larger ear flaps for increased gripping power and better coverage of the ear.
  • Wider forehead area for added strength at this important stress point as well as increasing the area of skin contact for a more secure fit.
  • Colours: Blue, Hot Pink, Black, Neon Green, Neon Yellow, Neon Orange, Camo, Navy Sharks, Pink Sea Life.
  • NEW TIE DYE COLORS: Blue, Pink, Purple, Green, Orange.

The new and improved Ear Band-It® Ultra is the most durable, comfortable and secure fitting swimmer's ear band ever and amazingly, the price is still very reasonable. For those who prefer not to change, we still offer the Original Ear Band-It!

Notes on Usage:

Ear Band-It is designed to help keep moldable ear plugs in place during water activities. We recommend the use of Putty Buddies floating moldable silicone ear plugs with your Ear Band-it for the most secure water protection you can get.

Product Care

Cleaning: Hand wash the headband with mild detergent and lukewarm water. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals.
Drying: After washing, lay the headband flat to air dry completely. Do not wring out the material or use a dryer, as excessive heat can damage the neoprene.

    Ear Band-It Ultra

    The Ear Band-It Ultra is an excellent product.

    The material and shape is a significant improvement over our previous Ear Band-It headband we had for our son.

    Could not recommend this product high enough.

    Thank you

    Great product

    Has really helped our son adjust to having grommets.

    He is able to easily get ready for swimming at school, much easier to manage than the swim cap we had been using.

    If child has long hair I'd recommend tying, makes it easier for young ones and velcro can cling and pull the hair.

    Second purchase!

    Loved the first purchase so we had to buy more! Everything just works well together, even strangers come up to us at the public pool and ask for details about the products and what we think of them for their own kids. Best on the market

    Fantastic product!

    I purchased these for both of my children and they are by far the best we have used. The shape fits perfectly and gives great coverage over the ears. They stay put for the whole lesson and both kids are comfortable wearing them.
