I'm down to my last clean pair and I'd love to not have to buy a ton more of these down the line. They're essential for any time I end up at a music-centric event, or really most events that include music. I'll be scrolling through the earplug recommendations in this community too

You can get this: 100 pairs for like $25

You really should throw them away. They are porous so cleaning is not going to work well. They are meant to be disposable.

Or get longer-term ones if you want better quality sound for music. I have a pair from EarPiece that I use. They have much better sound distribution, adjustable components to change the protection level, and they can be cleaned with alcohol. Plus they come with a nice case and an extra plug in a separate compartment in case you lose one while at an event.
