ABSTRACT:
An earmuff assembly releaseably attached to a headset commonly used with radio and audio playback units in order to protect the user's ears in inclement weather. The assembly includes a muff body formed by a thermal covering, surrounding a core element, and the muff body has a soft front face positionable against the ear. The muff body has a central opening to telescopically receive an earphone to orient the earphone at a location adjacent the ear. The muff body is secured to the headset, for example, by a cover plate defined by a disc covered with fabric that extends over the opening, with the muff body and the cover plate connected together by a mating hook and loop fastening strip. Alternatively, attachment may be by means of an elastic panel. The core element may, if desired, be stiffened by an annular plate.
