Putty Buddies Floating Moldable Swim Earplugs, 10 Pair Pack — Reusable Waterproof Seal

Putty Buddies Earvolution Floating Putty Buddies are soft, moldable silicone swim earplugs that float and form a comfortable, waterproof seal for swimmers of all ages.

Designed by a Board-Certified ENT with decades of experience, these Earvolution Floating Putty Buddies provide a reusable, non-toxic option for keeping water out of the outer ear during swimming, surfing, and other water activities. The patented Flo-Tek silicone ensures each plug floats for easy retrieval, and the tacky, moldable texture conforms to different ear shapes without needing insertion into the ear canal.

How do these earplugs stay easy to find in the water?

The plugs are made with patented Flo-Tek floating silicone so they remain on the water surface if they come loose. That eliminates frantic searching and reduces waste since lost plugs are often irretrievable.

• Flo-Tek silicone formulation that floats on water
• Bright colors increase visibility
• Lightweight design that stays buoyant during waves

Will they fit children and adults comfortably?

Yes — the soft, tacky silicone is moldable and one-size-fits-most, conforming to a wide variety of outer-ear shapes without inserting into the ear canal. The material stays flexible in warm and cold water for consistent comfort.

• Super-soft, reusable silicone with tacky texture
• One-size-fits-all moldable design for different ear shapes
• Recommended for users with ear tubes and perforated eardrums (use as directed)

How do I get a secure waterproof seal when swimming?

Form each plug into a small ball and press it into the outer ear to create a seal; the tackiness holds it in place without deep insertion. For extra security during vigorous activity, pair with a swim headband or Ear Band-It product to maintain position.

• Mold into a small disc or button for an outer-ear seal
• Combine with a swim headband for high-impact water sports
• Reusable and easy to reshape between sessions

How do I care for and reuse these earplugs?

Rinse with fresh water and mild soap after use, then air dry before storing. Because they’re made in the USA from durable, non-toxic silicone, they withstand repeated shaping and cleaning for continued use.

• Wash with mild soap and water after each use
• Air dry fully before returning to a protective case or pouch
• Replace when material becomes worn or loses tackiness
