Founder Tom Ross created EarFree after looking for a way to stay active in Florida without worrying about sweat, movement, or his processor staying in place.

Before you choose
Frequently asked questions
Will EarFree fit my processor?
Many EarFree products are designed for behind-the-ear processors. Each product page explains its fit and exclusions, including off-ear processors, ear molds, T-Mic systems, and some older styles.
Which size is right for my child?
Kids products list their recommended age range. If your child is between sizes or has a specific processor setup, start with the fit guide and then check the product details.
Can I wear EarFree for sports?
Yes. Choose a product made for your activity, such as the quick-dry hat for active wear or the wind-blocking hat for outdoor conditions.
