An earbud is a hard object sitting in the one place your head presses into the pillow. Roll onto your side and it grinds into your ear canal until you wake up and take it out. Over-ear headphones are worse — they turn your ear into a hinge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0 0 22px;\"\u003eThis is a soft knit headband with two flat speakers slid inside it. There is no hard shell, nothing in your ear canal, and nothing standing proud of the fabric. Pull it down over your eyes and it doubles as a sleep mask. Push it up to your hairline in the morning and it is a sweatband for your run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/assets.gearelevation.com\/pdp-sleep-headphones-headband\/01_hero_both_colours.jpg\" alt=\"The sleep headband in both colourways, heather grey and black, laid flat on a white studio background\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:480px;height:auto;margin:0 auto;border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"margin:0 0 40px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 style=\"font-size:28px;line-height:1.2;margin:0 0 14px;\"\u003eThe speakers are thinner than your fingertip\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0 0 16px;\"\u003eThat is the entire design. Each speaker is a flat oval disc, wrapped in the same fabric as the band. Hold one on edge between finger and thumb and it is visibly thinner than the fingertip holding it. When your head goes down, your ear meets cloth. The disc compresses into the pillow with the rest of the band instead of pressing back at you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0 0 22px;\"\u003eThe discs sit loose in a fabric channel rather than being sewn to one spot, so you slide them along the band until they line up with your own ears. That is worth doing on the first night — it is the difference between the sound arriving at your ear and arriving at your temple. It also means they can shift if you toss around, and you nudge them back. We would rather tell you that than have you discover it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/assets.gearelevation.com\/pdp-sleep-headphones-headband\/03_flat_speaker_detail.jpg\" alt=\"The flat oval speaker held on edge between finger and thumb, showing how thin it is\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:480px;height:auto;margin:0 auto;border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"margin:0 0 40px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 style=\"font-size:28px;line-height:1.2;margin:0 0 14px;\"\u003eIt covers your eyes as well as playing the audio\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0 0 22px;\"\u003eWorn low, the band sits across your eyes the way a sleep mask does, so the streetlight through the curtain gap and your partner's reading lamp stop being your problem. That is a genuine two-jobs-at-once benefit and it is the reason people who bought it for the audio end up wearing it for the dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/assets.gearelevation.com\/pdp-sleep-headphones-headband\/02_side_sleeper_on_pillow.jpg\" alt=\"Woman asleep on her side on a white pillow with the headband pulled down over her eyes\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:480px;height:auto;margin:0 auto;border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"margin:0 0 40px;background:#F6F4EF;border-radius:10px;padding:26px 26px 20px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 style=\"font-size:24px;line-height:1.25;margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eWhat it does not do\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0 0 14px;\"\u003eWe would rather lose the sale than have this arrive and disappoint you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cul style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;padding-left:20px;\"\u003e\n      \u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt does not cancel noise.\u003c\/strong\u003e There is no active noise cancelling in a flat fabric band, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. What it does is mask — playing rain, a fan track or a podcast over the top of the noise you are trying to ignore. That works well on a snoring partner or a hotel corridor. It will not silence a building site.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt is not built for critical listening.\u003c\/strong\u003e Small flat drivers held against the side of your head give you clear speech and comfortable music. They do not give you the bass of a proper pair of headphones. Buyers who love this one are listening to audiobooks, meditations, white noise and podcasts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt is not a medical device.\u003c\/strong\u003e It plays audio and it blocks light. Whether that helps you sleep is a question about you, not about the product.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"margin:0 0 40px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 style=\"font-size:28px;line-height:1.2;margin:0 0 14px;\"\u003eThe speakers slide out, so the band can be washed\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0 0 16px;\"\u003eThis is the question everyone asks second. The speakers are not sewn in. They sit loose in a fabric channel that runs through the band, and they slide out of it the same way they slide along it. The supplier lists the band as washable, and this is why: take the electronics out and what is left is cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0 0 22px;\"\u003eTake the speakers out first, every time, and let the band dry completely before you feed them back in. We are deliberately not printing a wash temperature or a machine cycle, because the supplier does not document one and we are not going to guess with your headband. Treat it as a hand wash until we can tell you otherwise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/assets.gearelevation.com\/pdp-sleep-headphones-headband\/06_electronics_lift_out.jpg\" alt=\"The fabric sleeve of the band turned back with one flat speaker sliding out of its channel\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:480px;height:auto;margin:0 auto;border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"margin:0 0 40px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 style=\"font-size:28px;line-height:1.2;margin:0 0 14px;\"\u003eCharge it in the evening, it lasts the night\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0 0 16px;\"\u003eThe supplier documents a two-hour charge and over ten hours of playing time. Ten hours covers a night with room to spare, or a long-haul flight, or a week of hour-long runs between charges. In practice most people put it on charge while they shower and forget about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0 0 22px;\"\u003eThe three buttons on the outside of the band handle volume down, play and skip, and volume up, so you can turn the podcast down without opening your eyes or finding your phone. It pairs over Bluetooth to a phone, a tablet or a laptop the same way any wireless headphone does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/assets.gearelevation.com\/pdp-sleep-headphones-headband\/05_morning_run_headband.jpg\" alt=\"Runner outdoors at dawn wearing the same band across the forehead as a sweatband\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:480px;height:auto;margin:0 auto;border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"margin:0 0 40px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 style=\"font-size:28px;line-height:1.2;margin:0 0 14px;\"\u003eIt goes where headphones are awkward\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0 0 22px;\"\u003eOn a plane or a train it does the job of an eye mask and a pair of headphones at once, and there is nothing to fall out when you finally drop off. In a gym class it stays put through a run or a lift, because there is nothing rigid on it to bounce. Same band, three places you would otherwise be carrying something else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/assets.gearelevation.com\/pdp-sleep-headphones-headband\/07_travel_nap_upright.jpg\" alt=\"Passenger dozing upright in a train seat with the headband pulled down over their eyes\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:480px;height:auto;margin:0 auto;border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"margin:0 0 40px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 style=\"font-size:28px;line-height:1.2;margin:0 0 14px;\"\u003eWhat arrives\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cul style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;padding-left:20px;\"\u003e\n      \u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 8px;\"\u003eOne knit headband, in the colour you choose — heather grey or black\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 8px;\"\u003eTwo flat oval speakers and a three-button control tab, joined by a thin cord and already fitted inside the band\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 8px;\"\u003eA USB charging cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 8px;\"\u003eA printed instruction sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:16px;color:#5a6172;margin:14px 0 0;\"\u003eNo charger plug is included, and no carry case.

The speakers are flat discs rather than housings, so there is no hard edge between your ear and the pillow. If you sleep on your side and have given up on earbuds, this is the reason to try it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"border-top:1px solid #E2DFD8;padding:14px 0;\"\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 6px;\"\u003eWill it block my partner's snoring?\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;\"\u003eIt will cover it, not remove it. Play white noise or rain at a low level and the snoring stops standing out against the silence. That is masking, and for most people it is enough. It is not noise cancelling and we will not call it that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"border-top:1px solid #E2DFD8;padding:14px 0;\"\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 6px;\"\u003eHow do I wash it?\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;\"\u003eSlide the speakers and control tab out of the fabric sleeve first, always. Wash the empty band and let it dry completely before putting the electronics back. Never put the band in water with the electronics still inside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"border-top:1px solid #E2DFD8;padding:14px 0;\"\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 6px;\"\u003eWill it fit my head?\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;\"\u003eIt is one size, made from stretch knit, and it works the way any athletic headband does — it pulls on and holds by tension rather than by a buckle or a strap.

They are meant to slide, which is how you position them for your own ears — and the same freedom lets them drift if you turn a lot. Reach up and nudge them back.
