Yes, for prolonged exposure of, I think, 15 minutes?
My ears have been ringing after driving my convertible at highways speeds due to wind buffeting, trucks, etc. DBs are consistently peaking at over 85db. I bought some filtering ear plugs to take the sound down by 20db but still let me hear my surroundings, and they've been good.
I wish I had them for the young stars tournament in Penticton, that was brutally loud.
