High isolation earphones: A low cost solution is to use any in-ear type earphone that suits you plus a pair of common or garden ear defenders. The earphone lead should be as thin as possible so that the leakage around the lead as it exits the defender is as small as possible.
Ear defenders I have come across make the head sweat and therefore uncomfortable after an hour or so; a cloth cover, such as aircraft headphones have is a solution, but reduces isolation slightly.
