How is it for noise bleeding out of the ear phones and does it block any noise from outside e.g. airplane ride?

If by noise bleeding you mean is the sound audible while you're wearing them from the outside, then no. And yes I believe it would block out sounds from an airplane. I wear them in my college library which sometimes can get extremely loud and I don't hear anything.

There's no noise bleeding if you are listening at normal levels. It is possible to get noise bleeding if you turn the volume up high. I don't feel like these are that great for blocking out outside noise. You'll probably want noise cancelling headphones for an airplane ride unless you don't mind turning the volume up.

No sir. We purchased this certain model - for my husband - and it has turned out to be very good at keeping out the noise, BUT when it comes to using the radio - it fades out / completely at times, quite a bit. Thus, he has an expensive pair of outside noise blockers.

The rubber wings and soft rubber or plastic cups that go in your ears work great for blocking out sound and keeping these in place. I rotated the "wing" to be almost straight up and snapped it into my ear and it stays put. It was very slightly uncomfortable the first day or two but now I don't even notice it.

They are pretty good at isolating outside noise because they are a complete over the ear design, and unless you have dumbo ears, they should fit over your ears to seal out most ambient noise. The sound in the headphones is exceptionally loud too, and the bass is pretty deep and thumpy (if there is such a word). I like them because it still allows me to hear stuff going on around me if for example, cars horns, or someone calling my name, etc. I have not tried them on an airplane per se, so in terms of drowning out engine noise, i cannot say, but in a car, the road noise is non existent.

While not good on noise isolation it definately does not snag. I use mine while biking and it lets me hear the traffic.

It doesn't cancel out the background noises, but it does reduces them. I've used these on an airplane and I was still able to hear the sound of the jets quite loud...

The sound isolation is pretty effective, I haven't used them on a plane but I have used them while playing drums and they cut out a lot of the extra noise.

If your asking, does outside noise get to your ears? Yes they are not designed to keep all noise out. Designed to keep the volume of frequencies at a level that will not damage yor ears. They do not deaden all sound,which is perfect . They allow you to participate without fear of injury. Hope this was some help.

You can still hear. It just muffles things. Once you turn on the music, it pretty much cancels out all outside noise. As far as people talking, if my ol lady comes outside while I'm cutting the grass and tries to talk to me, I just pull the muffs off and see what she has to say. I hope this helps out.

I don't find that it blocks sound very well. I use it to listen to music on my smartphone while walking, and I can still hear other noise with the earphones on. They work well enough for my purpose, though. Not as good as Bose...

I suppose it depends on what types of noise you are trying to not hear.. I wear them to bed and I don't hear anything but the audio book I am listening to.. I took them on my recent flight and I didn't hear the hum of the plane while in flight.. so I personally find they are pretty good at blocking out outside noises.. But I don't use them for any high end work or need to use them for any such, I am purely a casual user (over age 35), I don't have to turn the volume way up to reduce outside noise either. I hope this helped!

Provides decent physical external sound blockage, but is not noise canceling. I have bose noise canceling. They only work with steady sounds. Like the hum of the road or an airplane engine/wind.

These are on ear, however they do block outside noise quite well for being non noise cancelling phones....Buy these, you will not be sorry!

To a certain extent, yes. As an on-ear headphone it will never block out as much as an over-ear or some airtight ear buds. But I ride my bike through the streets of L.A.with them and get just enough noise filtering in to be aware of my surroundings but never enough to interrupt my enjoyment. Airplanes are a different animal. The phones are designed to be so light they don't have much mass to keep noise in. While you may block out the airplane noise, everyone in your area will know what you're listening to. While they are super comfortable and very light, they are not made to be quiet room headphones. These were designed very specifically for activities, not libraries and airplanes. So while you will be able to block out noise, you'll be sharing your music with people close by in quiet situations. Hope this helps.

I really like my headphones, but honestly believe that a good set of earplugs would work better. They will work without music playing. I sometimes do this on a plane. They do an excellent job of blanking out the engine drone but I can still hear people talking (albeit at a much reduced volume)

Noise cancelling, which actively cancels out incoming sounds, is not found on this headset. Noise isolating, which passively blocks incoming sounds, is what this set of headphone does, and it does a descent job. You can still hear external sound, but it's muffled. I used these on a plane recently and they worked just fine. I would give these a 7 or 8 on a scale of 1 (hear all external noise) to 10 (hear no external noise).

Yes its not so much as sound bleeding, it permeates thru the air. These headphones were made to allow surround sound capability w ur music. And they are definitely not noise cancellation either
