When I worked in the mill, the company paid for us to have custom made molded ear plugs if we wanted them so that is what I primarily wore. Other than that, I've used different styles of foam ear plugs and they are cheaper and work great, at least for me they do.

I use these, of all the generic cheap ear plugs they fit better and cut sound the best for me.

Alpine moto safe on Amazon...20 bucks. Nice thing is you can still hear your pipes and traffic noise but it blocks out the wind noise. Race version blocks more noise...i don't ride without them now

No matter what you get, there's going to be wind noise, but I've been using this type since '09 with a try at something different once in a while in there, and I'll never waste my money again on anything else than these walmart ones. They're relatively cheap, you get two pair per box, they last and they just work.

I use the Howard-Leight foam earplugs as well. They have a 32 dB noise reduction rating, and the best part is I get 'em free at work

I always forget to wear plugs and I pay for it at the end of the day. I don't think it really matters what kind you use as long a you are using something. I'm going to get a bunch to keep in the bike and wear something from now on...Matter of fact I'm ordering some from Amazon right now.
