Expertly Designed For Optimal Protection And Comfort
In designing our hearing protection we knew that beyond simple decibel reduction, we also needed to create something that we would want to wear. WarBird hearing protection needed to be efficient, comfortable, and packed with features that professionals who “live in” hearing protection would appreciate. Whether your needs are for heavy equipment operation, shooting sports, yardwork, or just to tune out unwanted noise, WarBird has your solution.
Sound Choices: A Guide to Selecting the Right Ear Protection
Despite what you may not have heard, our ears are sensitive devices. It is agreed that any noise above 85-90 decibels can cause hearing damage, but the hazard isn't from loud noises alone. To understand what level of hearing protection is best for you, you must first understand the system used to measure noise.
Functional and Comfortable Slim Cup Design
Previous slim cup designs sacrificed protection in the name of being less obnoxiously sized. This is why many of those models offer less protection and fewer features. At WarBird, instead of simply trying to shrink the form factor, we redesigned from the ground up while taking advantage of new materials and technologies to finally create an ear cup that had both the form AND function we desire as professionals.
Superior Sound Quality
Electronic hearing protection has been a great advancement; we no longer have to sacrifice hearing the outside world while protecting ourselves. Where others have failed is to take advantage of the incredible audio technology we all enjoy in premium audio headphones. Our integration of modern audio technology is intended to give you accurate audio perception of the world around you, while still offering protection.

TPU-Covered Gel Ear Pad
As professionals, we understand what it feels like to wear hearing protection for hours on end. The best protection in the world becomes a nuisance if the ear and head padding has already “checked out” for the day, or is perfect as long as you don’t have to move your head or press up against anything. That’s why WarBird has opted to pre-upgrade our sets. Gel ear pads and flexible headbands come standard on our premium rechargeable models, Intrepid RC and Intrepid BT.
TPU – Thermoplastic Polyurethane is a class of plastic made from
polyurethane that has unique characteristics.
- Elasticity- Lending itself to shock and impact absorption
- Liquid Resistance- Resistant to oil, grease, and other residue stains
- Abrasion Resistance- Resistant to scrapes and abrasions helping to maintain
form and appearance - Heat Resistance- Resistant to low-medium grade heat sources, preventing melting and distortion of the cups
- High Strength- TPU is one of the toughest materials on the market, making it ideal for high stress situations
Rechargeable 8 Hour Battery Life
Just because we’re in the shop, out in the field, or on the range doesn’t mean life stops. For those who want to remain in touch with the world beyond their task, WarBird offers the Intrepid BT model with Bluetooth connectivity to your mobile device.
