I don’t recommend it, but not because of why you might think. Active Noise Reduction (ANR) can be part of a noise reduction strategy, but this is more about earplugs with ANR and noise reducing earmuffs. The are typically large earmuffs stuffed with lots of foam, and can be worn for a long period of time while working (OSHA approved). Bose noise cancelling headphones are awesome for flights, and would reduce the noise from a lawn mower - however, they have very little foam. As a result, they will quickly become sweat boxes for your ears if you’re doing any excercise it hard work. So if you’re cutting your grass once a week on a ride on mower, they’d be better than no ear protection, but if you’re talking more than that, go with double protection (ear plugs with safety earmuffs. Throw triple protection of ANR into the mix if you wish, but probably not Bose over or on ear headphones. Just my opinion.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.These are good at cancelling most ambient background noise but not equipment. It will muffle the sound of a lawnmower some no doubt, but they will not replace proper hearing protection. Just use good old fashioned OSHA approved hearing protection!
