The Dan brought this up in a recent discussion and I decided to get a pair and also start a review thread here.
While I haven't done any long-distance riding with them yet, I did do about a 450 mile trip to OK and back and was very surprised how comfortable they were.
I felt no pressure on my ears like I do with traditional foam plugs and they were just as good at blocking out noise as the foam plugs.
It takes a couple tries to get them in your ear just right as they don't expand so you push them in - I form a cone with mine and push them in my ear and flatten them out.
Also discussed in the link above is the fact that some can split one of the two plugs and use them that way, as these are very generous, is like getting 2 for the price of 1 if you have small ear canals.
A few times I wondered if they had fallen out as I really didn't feel them at all yet I knew the wind noise wasn't there so they had to be in.
I'm giving a thumbs up to these and will continue to use them.
One small issue is the container they send these in is hard plastic and if you pack them away in that or put them in your pocket it may crack/break. I have some old round ear plug container I don't remember where I got but it was much better at holding them yet being easier to carry and not worry about the container breaking.
