Will these block out outside noises such as a lawn mower?

A little bit. They definitely cut all surrounded noises in Gym. Verry good quality.

It may. However, expect interruptions in signal between your headphones and connecting device.

I don't know if anyone has used them for mowing lawns, but they are pretty universal when it comes to noise cancelation. The plug is a standard audio aux cable

I am not sure if I would say these are noise reducing. I would say they are better a directing what you want to hear to you. They do cover most of your ears but they are not like the encompassing ones. They muffle some outside noise but once you're playing anything what you are playing drowns out outside noise.

The head phones, listening to Audio Books - NOT at full volume - keep my Garden Tractor mower soft - sometimes I can barely hear the mower. If I turned up the volume, I am sure it would muffle the sound completely.

I don't believe they would completely block the sound or create COMPLETE silence. I live right on a major road (4 lanes of traffic) with my bedroom facing the road, and they block out most of that noise...to the point where I can sleep soundly. I hope this helps.

Yes. I wear them to mow the lawn and I don't hear a thing but what's on my headphones. Great noise cancelling headphones.

They block out external sound well, but do not have active noise cancelation. They don't leak sound so if you turn up the volume you won't bother those near you.

I wouldn't say these suppress exterior noise by much. I bought these because we have 3 people in our house that work evenings, and my wife can listen to the TV without disturbing anyone. She says she can hear the dishwasher a very small amount while wearing them. Just testing them myself some has to really direct their voice to you to be disruptive. A side note.....We LOVE these! The serve a great purpose and work fantastically!

It depends on how loud you listen to the music in your ears, if it's loud, it should drown out exterior noise pretty well

I have not yet tried to reduce lawnmower noise. Yet, I found these to work very well on an airplane. From what I have experienced, they do best with monotonous lower frequencies. I'm guessing that it will somewhat reduce the noise. But certainly not reduce it dramatically or completely.

No they are not designed to be noise canceling, however they do reduce outside noise a little because they cover your ears completely.

I'm not sure if noise isolation is the same as hearing protection, but I do use them when operating my riding lawnmower and my gas chainsaw, and that sound is minimized to where I can hear and enjoy music from my ipod. When the music is not playing the sound is lessened so much that many times I have to pull out 1 plug so I can tell when the chainsaw/mower starts so I can adjust the choke to complete the start.

If they fit you well, they may help. They do not fit my ear canals well, so I notice minimal noise reduction. My husband uses them on the tractor and says they work well for him.

not likely. Some work to reduce or block certain types of noise. Such as airplane engine noise, but not loud music.

They will block noise to an extent though but not as much as ear plugs or active noise canceling headphones. I use these while mowing the lawn and working the the shop to block noise while listening to music.

NO! They cut down on ambient noise but a loud item such as a chain saw or lawn mower is out of the question!If I pay attention I can hear what my wife is trying to tell me, while I have them on

Not completely. I have not found anything that will do that as much as try to advertise! I wear them everynight because they do block most ambient sound i.e. fans, tv's down low.
