Lots of products on the market with big claims of performance. Do yourself a favor and look at a good industrial supply store or website, you'll probably find the same products without the logos and trade names at a fraction of the cost.

Hearing protection, eye protection, these are everyday issues in business and industry. Employers purchase these things by the rail-car load for pennies on the dollar compared to what shooters pay for brand-named stuff from "reputable sources".

I buy OSHA-approved eye protection by the dozen for less than $2 per, always carry a few with me to the range and give them away to anyone who needs a set. Ear plugs (OSHA-approved) can be bought by the dozen, shipped to your door for less than a single set at the sporting goods store or on-line market.

Shooting supply companies didn't invent any of this stuff, they just went to the manufacturers and had the industrial products made with a logo applied for big-name recognition.

FWIW, my son bought a pair (he shoots on the local trap/skeet team) and he likes them. He says they work well with the blast suppression and are comfortable.

I just use the plain old foam plugs. A jar of 200 is less than $10 at the grocery store. I keep one in the vehicle and one in my shooting bag. Anybody who's forgotten ear protection at the club is welcome to a pair. They work well as long as you insert them properly, but I've found that many people don't know how in these days since nearly everyone uses muffs.

These are what we use.
Muffs rated at 34db and the plugs, used for Trap, rated at 33db.

I think you're referring to these.

Been considering them for a bit.

Well they're okay but not worth the $75 I paid for them. By the $25 version if you want a molded set of ear plugs.
