For me, not great but I have a big head. I was not impressed with the quality of these, though, it may serve you to keep looking.

I don't know about external sounds such as lawn mowers. I use it in a gym setting. They work great at the gym and it does block out other people's conversations. If someone starts to talk to me, I do remove the headset to hear them.

Only wore them in gym. The only problem was the stem going to the ear bud broke, I had only used them six weeks. That was really disappointing. I recommend another brand.

Yes but you will of course have the background mower noise, therefor losing sound quality. For a mower I would stick to headphones

I use them for the shooting enclosed shooting range, and they work well. I think it will be equal for mowing the lawn.

I would get noise reducing headphones. These are good headphones for listening but don't really block noise necessarily. We have firearm rated ear protection headphones for our daughter and fireworks. Hope this helps!

For the price id say it's very good at blocking out external noise. An aside; if you fidget with the headphone jack area it may be a scratchy connection. Eventually these types of headphones just lose connection and one side will play and all sorts of stuff. But I love them while they laat

I cannot answer your question. I use the hearing protectors when I cut the lawn. I have a riding mower and used to use disposable ear plugs. When using the Husqvarna headset my ears don't ring like they used to after cutting grass.

You can use them with noise cancelling turned off. Just like a normal headset.

I have used these for mowing my lawn. I used my Apple iPod with a standard interconnect cable. The plugin on the headphones is the same as on the iPod. I was surprised how well they worked. I thought the volume would have to be very high but it was not. The sound protection was quite good and I could hear my music just fine. There does seem to be a limit as to how load you can adjust the music. I wanted it a little louder but found it to be quite adequate. It's rather surprising how you can turn up the volume and hear surrounding sounds better than without the headphones on. Then when start the mower, its sound is immediately blocked and I can now enjoy my music. I'm sure you'll like using them. I have used these for mowing my lawn.

These ear buds isolate outside sound extremely well, therefore you can listen at lower volumes and still hear all of your music. I even use mine like earplugs while mowing the lawn.

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)

My solution when cutting the lawn was to just use ear bud headphones and put these on over them. It kept the seal well enough to protect my ears and I could hear my tunes just fine. The audio wasn't loud enough when I used a headphone cable plugged into the headphones once I started up the mower.

They muffle outside noises, but do not block them out. I don't believe they would be comfortable for 8 hours. Suggest paying more and getting headphones which will cancel outside noises.

Even better, my girlfriend bought them to block out the noise of the kids and they do,these are the best for the money, I don't think anything will block out the noise of a gun completely,I bought them for tools saws, router ect.., work great-Jim

Yes. The noise reduction is very good. You can drown out the outside without having to shatter your eardrums.

I wear them when riding my mower and when using the leaf blower. Some noise comes through, but I can still hear my music fine. They are bulkier than noise canceling but comfortable. For the price they are worth trying for flight travel. Hope this helps.

I've been using noise cancelling earbuds for years (Audio Technica ATH-ANC331) and mostly for yard work (mower, weed eater, blower) and yes they absolutely cut down the noise. There is a ridiculous assumption that noise canceling means you won't here anything. Good grief. I'm trying these because the Audio Technica's had a fair amount of hiss but there was a huge difference in the noise going from passive (buds just in ears) to Active Noise Reduction. Wish people would stop answering questions based on assumptions too "just the facts ma'am" . Total silence, not with any earbud. Hope that helps.

Yes, they could be used while mowing, but they do not muffle outside noise.The headphones are absoutely great though...music never sounded so great.
