Formula 1 is racing into another season this weekend with the Australian Grand Prix kicking off on March 6. But, in addition to the on-track action, the new season is also bringing some exciting new merch drops. One of the best is the latest McLaren F1 Team x Loop Switch 2 earplugs. First introduced last year, the McLaren F1 x Loop Switch 2 sees the best-selling earplugs in a special-edition Papaya color just like the paint on Lando Norris’ winning car. The new McLaren x Loop Switch 2 earplugs are available now at Loop.com, priced at $64.99. McLaren F1 x Loop Switch 2 $64.99 Buy Now at loop Available now The Switch 2 earplugs are our favorite earplugs on the market right now, offering adjustable sound reduction for different environments. By twisting the earplugs’ outer circle, wearers can switch between three noise reduction levels: Engage Mode (20 dB), Experience Mode (23 dB), and Quiet Mode (26dB). This makes the earplugs ideal for concerts and other events where noise levels vary (i.e., ordering drinks at the track bar versus watching the race start from your seat). Just like it did last year, Loop’s partnership with McLaren goes beyond the product offering. The McLaren F1 team will be using these earplugs throughout the season to “support focus before races, comfort during travel, and recovery beyond the track,” per the brand. Lando Norris wearing the McLaren F1 x Loop Switch 2 “From travel days to race weekends, Loop plays a practical and vital role in how our team manages their focus and recovery,” says McLaren Racing Co-Chief Commercial Officer, Nick Martin. “Renewing the partnership reflects our shared belief that performance is built through small, deliberate advantages. Loop’s approach to precision design aligns closely with how we operate as a team, and it continues to resonate with our fans as well.” Like all Loop earplugs, the namesake design has both style and functionality benefits. The loop shape makes the earplugs look more like jewelry than gear, and it also helps the earplugs sit securely in the ear. “Formula 1 is one of the loudest environments you can be in. Inside the McLaren team, Loop helps people stay focused and recover between sessions,” says Maarten Bodewes, co-founder of Loop. “Fans experience that same intensity at the track. This partnership is about giving them control over the noise, without taking away the experience.” If you’re headed to an F1 race this season, or you want to rep McLaren in any other loud environments, pick up a pair of the new McLaren x Loop Switch 2 earplugs here.
