left/RIGHT Ear Muff

left/RIGHT – because we all are different.
left/RIGHT is the first ear muff set that is truly personal in the broad sense of the word. For the first time ever, the left muff is different from the right and provides a better fit as a result. For the first time ever, there is a headband based on the concept that our ears are not positioned “in the middle” of our head. For the first time ever, a muff is large enough to fit all types of ears, regardless of size.
That’s why we have protected the unique design. left/RIGHT will redraw the map in many ways. You can be sure of it.

MSA History


The MSA Story began almost 91 years ago when a young rescue engineer, John Thomas Ryan, haunted with the memory of dozens of mine disaster, share his concern with another Bureau of mines engineer George Herman Deike, who also wanted to fight the tragedies underground. On June 14, 1941, Ryan and Deike watched a small sign go up doorway in a downtown Pittsburgh office building, it read "Mine Safety Appliances Company". From that one-room office and basement store, the partners began their crusade for safety.
