I would say the noise reduction is not very well. As in if you are listening to 100 dB outside, you'll hear about 80-90 (totally just guessing). They are not meant for noise reduction. They are supposed to provide good crisp music.

If you want a good noise reducing headset, I strongly recommend the Samsung or the Bose brands. They are both at bestbuy (I almost bought them, too). But, they are in the 299+ range (unless they're on sale), and I would say it's a different category than these headphones.

I hope this helps.
