Editorial assessment by the WC Safety Editorial Team, based on published Howard Leight specifications and category fit. We did not laboratory-test this product.
The Howard Leight Impact Sport Pink is more than a color choice — it's the youth/small-fit build of the electronic muff that made the category mainstream. NRR 22, ambient amplification, and impulse compression above roughly 82 dB, all on a smaller headband (model R-01526P) that seals on younger shooters and smaller-framed adults where a full-size muff slips.

Why the Impact Sport Pink is a fit choice, not just a color
The pink finish gets the attention, but the youth/small headband is the reason to buy it: a muff only protects if it seals, and a full-size cup on a smaller head leaves gaps that quietly surrender the rating. This build sizes the proven Impact Sport platform down for younger shooters and smaller-framed adults, keeping the same NRR 22 electronics that made the category affordable. Our full Impact Sport Pink review rates it 4.6/5; the classic Impact Sport review covers the platform, and the best electronic shooting muffs guide ranks it against the field.
Safety first: fit is protection — NRR 22 is the shell's passive laboratory rating, real-world attenuation runs lower, and on an ill-fitting muff it drops further. The youth/small build exists precisely so the seal holds on a smaller head. A dead battery fails safe to passive protection, so carry spares. For a young shooter's developing hearing, indoor ranges and larger calibers warrant foam plugs under the muff for extra margin. Apply your program's derating per the OSHA 1910.95 hearing conservation guide.
What the listing documents
From the published specs: an electronic hearing protector rated NRR 22 dB (ANSI S3.19); a Youth/Small fit in pink; sound amplification for conversation, range commands, and wildlife; automatic compression of impulse noise above ~82 dB against gunshot peaks of ~140–165 dB; model R-01526P. A howard leight impact sport pink search lands here — as youth shooting ear muffs and pink electronic ear muffs, this is the small-fit build of the platform that defined the category.
Where it sits in the Impact Sport family and category
The Impact Sport ships in colorways and fits on one platform: this pink youth/small build, the camo full-size field build, and the standard versions, all sharing the NRR 22 electronics. Its lifelong rival is the Walker's Razor Slim, and the tier includes the Caldwell E-Max Low Profile and Browning Buckmark. Head-to-head guides: Impact Sport vs Razor Slim, Impact Sport vs Impact Pro, and WorkTunes Connect vs Impact Sport.
Electronic shell, passive math
Compression handles impulses; sustained noise rides the passive NRR 22, so run the standard numbers — the NRR explained guide covers derating and the calculation walkthrough applies it to your exposure. Electronic vs passive draws the boundary, the passive muffs guide covers raw attenuation, and the when-do-you-need-hearing-protection pillar maps the thresholds.
Ownership: batteries, cushions, and family orders
Two consumables: batteries (spares in the range bag) and cushions (replace when they stiffen; the seal carries the rating). Indoor and larger-caliber sessions pair with foam plugs from the hearing protection collection; ear plugs vs ear muffs explains the doubling logic, and the best hearing protection overview compares every format. For a youth program or family, quantity purchasing runs through a free Amazon Business account — volume pricing, PO numbers at checkout, and tax-exempt eligibility for qualifying organizations, with the walkthrough linked in our footer.
