00:00Okay, so if you've ever tried to sleep with cold ears, camping, a drafty bedroom,
00:04a red-eye flight, you know regular earmuffs are useless.
00:07They've got that big plastic headband that digs into your skull the second you lay your head down.
00:13So I went hunting for the slimmest, lowest-profile earmuffs I could find,
00:16the kind that sit behind your head and disappear under a beanie or a hood.
00:20Here are the top 5, and honestly, the prices on most of these kind of shocked me.
00:26Starting off at number 5, we've got this unisex knitted twist design ear warmer with
00:31the figure 8 pattern. What I like here is that it folds completely flat, like, pocket flat,
00:36so if you're the type who wakes up warm at 3am and wants it off, you just fold it and
00:40toss it
00:40on the nightstand. It's $6.05, it's got a 4.7 rating, and almost 1,900 people have picked it
00:48up.
00:49For $6, it's a really low-risk way to find out if behind-the-head style works for you.
00:54At number 4, this is the plush fleece behind-head option, and this one's the splurge of the group
00:59at $48. Now, before you click away, the difference is the fleece lining. It's genuinely soft against
01:07the ear, not scratchy acrylic, and it's built for running and cycling, which means it's designed to
01:12stay put when you move. And that matters a lot when you're rolling around in your sleep.
01:17Over 3,000 sold with a 4.7 rating.
01:21If you're a side sleeper who's picky about texture, this is the one worth paying for.
01:27Number 3 is the knitted figure-8 twist design, and this is the one I'd hand to somebody who's
01:31never worn these before. The twist knit gives it a bit of stretch, so it hugs your head without
01:36squeezing, and the behind-the-head band sits low enough that a hat or a hood goes right over the
01:41top with zero bulk. $6.04, 4.7 stars, over $4,400 sold. That sales number tells you people
01:50aren't just buying it, they're happy with it. Coming in at number 2, the behind-band knitted
01:55ear warmer. This one's the simplest design of the bunch, and I mean that as a compliment.
02:01There's no thick padding, no clunky hardware, it's basically a soft knit band that curves around
02:06the back of your head and cups your ears. That's it. Which is exactly why it vanishes under a hat.
02:14596, 4.7 rating, 4,500 sold. If your main problem is pressure points when you lay down,
02:21this solves it. And number 1 is the soft autumn behind the head protector headband.
02:27This is the thick ear warmer version, so you're getting real insulation, but the band still runs
02:32behind your head instead of over the top. Nearly 4,900 sold with a 4.7 rating, and it's the
02:38cheapest
02:38on the list at $5.37. Warm, slim, unisex, and under $6. That's why it's my top pick, it does
02:47the job
02:48better than things costing 10 times as much. All 5 links are down in the description,
