"Likely found on maps in an industrial wasteland at the edge of a postcode youâve never heard of, the Chronic Clubber is always in a queue for something: the venue lockers, the packed-out bathroom stalls, but never the club â they know the DJ." - Tiarna

Sets x @fredagainagainagainagainagain is officially out in the world. Premium hearing protection as functional merch.
In 2019, we were just two kiwi best friends who found ourselves stuffing toilet paper in our ears at the club (hot? no. resourceful? absolutely), which set us on a path to creating earplugs we'd actually be excited to wear.
To now have an artist like Fred choose to work with us, a small women-led team, over huge global competitors⌠itâs genuinely surreal. Weâre so honoured, and so grateful to Fred and his incredible team for championing hearing safety in the music scene.
This collab is all about shaping a music culture where we look after ourselves and each other. Where merch can also be accessible, sustainable, and functional.
When we set off on this mission, earplugs were overlooked and definitely not considered a sought-after accessory. Creating these Fred again.. Sets felt like a huge moment where we stood back and went woah, we did that.. earplugs are finally becoming part of the culture.
Weâll always be here for the club kids, the dancers, the overstimulated girlies, the day-ones, the night owls, and everyone who wants to still hear the world clearly at 80. Weâre here to help you stay connected to the music for the long haul.
Available now on the Fred again.. website.
MEET. Sets⢠(@setsnz )
âYour hearing is precious.â
Born from real nightlife experiences, Sets⢠rethinks how we protect our ears without compromising the moment. What started as a quick fix at a gig turned into a design-driven solution to a problem almost everyone ignores.
Blending function with aesthetics, they create earplugs made for the dancefloor and beyond, built to be comfortable, reusable, and actually worth carrying.
During the KUMO EXPO at Print, Sets⢠equipped our music artists with ear protection, making sure they could perform at full intensity while protecting what matters most.
More than a product, Sets⢠is pushing a shift in culture: making hearing protection a normal part of going out, where taking care of yourself is part of the experience.
