Doubling up with foam plugs and muffs is a good idea. Also pay attention to the fit of the muffs and their ratings. Muffs that cover the whole ear are better than muffs that just sit on the ear. I like muffs that enclose the entire ear and sit on the skull.

IMHO I found the best muffs are ones made by Peltor, they fit over even my "Alfred E Neumann" ears. My Peltor H7's afford 27db protection. Peltor makes an H10 muff that gives 29db. I always use my H7's indoors.
