So now that I'm going to start rolling a lot more regular I need to grab some ear guards.
What are the softest most comfortable ones to roll against I don't want anything that will be annoying to your partner just something soft to keep my ears from getting smashed, the rest of me gets smashed enough LoL I don't need ear pain on top of it :-)
Thanks
They're all annoying

Get a lace up lucha libre mask, when I get cauli I rock one I had custom made with extra padding around the ears, lace up and an open mouth.
They look awesomely ridiculous, they protected my ears, and it never slipped or moved unlike most ear guards.
I forgot who I got mine from but it was hand made in the US.
there are a bunch of sites available.

man I got a luchador mask in mexico. I wore it once rolling as a joke, didnt last more than 3 minutes those things are hot as fuuuuuck on your face lo
Try matman earguards, I use them often...hardly any slipping and don't bother your partner all that much either
Most ear guards are annoying, both for you and your partner, but that's the price you pay to have "normal ears".
I don't know about others, but ear pain was a never a problem for me. My ears get hot as hell, but they don't hurt. I started using ear guards after one of the black belts I train with got cauliflower. He was my last hope of getting to black belt without cauliflower. Curiously the day after this incident, half the school started wearing ear guards.
Since I live in Brazil it makes no sense to recommend any brand, but mine is Asics. Looks a lot like this one:

The matman ones are good. I have no problem with them moving or slipping and they are comfortable enough. They don't have the hard plastic which is good because that can be annoying to training partners.
Just drain that shit.
I've been using the ear guard below. It does a great job of protecting my ears while not being annoying for rolling partners.

At the base of the ear where it "connects" to the head. Must be while pulling out of chokes. 5+ years grappling still no cauliflower ears. My ears seem super soft and naturally bend easily. But the tear issue has me considering a pair. Anyone try out the Venum ones yet?
