EyeMuffs - anybody tried them?

Rose saw these at Farmworld yesterday. I've been looking for hearing protection I can wear under the slouch hat. Rose thought this might nail that while also giving me goggles for the EyePal aperture. Not cheap though and I don't know if they'll be as stable as strap-on goggles.

For bike riding?
Look a little bulky for using a scope and a stock with good cheek weld.
Probably work with a 12 gauge.
Gun control requires concentration and a steady hand

They provide zero information regarding the AS/NZs they comply with.

They should in writing provide the:
Class of hearing protection.
Whether the eye protection provides low medium or high impact protection.

For example AS/NZS 1269 noise

Don't touch them.

As I prefer not to wear hearing protection anyway these are probably a step-up I would think ;-)
Hearing protection is mandatory at the LERAA shoots on the line, your choice if you want to wear such when you're behind the line. Foam ear plugs will do me fine but they are annoying to take in and out. The pair I've been using were yellow originally, now they're a dirty grey from being in my pocket for the past six months or more.

I'm more concerned about how well they remain in position, not how much decibel protection they offer.
