Eden Prairie, Minnesota (May 13, 2026) SoundGear, a leading innovator in hearing protection, announced a partnership with Realtree, the world’s leading camouflage brand, to expand awareness around the importance of hearing protection for hunters, shooters, and outdoor enthusiasts. The collaboration brings together two trusted brands known for innovation, durability, and performance in demanding environments.
As part of the partnership, SoundGear is introducing a SoundGear Shield x Realtree Special Edition of its 93 dB product, a high-performance electronic hearing protection solution engineered to provide all-day comfort, situational awareness, and reliable protection from hazardous noise.
“Noise-induced hearing loss is one of the most preventable health conditions, yet awareness and adoption of hearing protection still lag behind in many outdoor and shooting environments,” said Michael Scholl, Chief Business Development Officer and Executive Vice President of Corporate Relations at SoundGear. “By partnering with Realtree, we have an opportunity to reach more consumers with an important message: protecting your hearing should be considered just as essential as any other piece of safety equipment. Together, we are helping make hearing protection a standard part of the outdoor experience.”
The SoundGear Shield x Realtree product combines SoundGear’s advanced sound management technology with exclusive SoundGear Shield x Realtree accessories, creating a product that resonates with hunters, shooters, and outdoor enthusiasts who value both performance and authenticity. The product is designed to help safeguard hearing from harmful impulse noise while amplifying softer sounds, supporting communication and environmental awareness when it matters most.
The partnership reflects a shared commitment to education and advocacy around hearing conservation. Through collaborative marketing initiatives, consumer outreach, and industry engagement, SoundGear and Realtree aim to encourage more hunters, recreational shooters, and outdoor enthusiasts to prioritize long-term hearing health.
The SoundGear Shield x Realtree Special Edition will be available through select retail and online channels later this year.
