It's a fine line between too much wind noise and not being able to pick up your voice.

On a side note, how do you find it with cutting out the noise? I bought a pair used on eBay and it didn't really dampen out any sound. Do you wear earplugs? Maybe I just need to replace the ear seals on it.
Thanks I'll try that out. I don't wear earplugs and it is louder than if I were wearing David clampers, but it's not that bad. I'd rather wear Bose but I can't afford them.
