noseplugs

Pool lane accessories

Noseplugs are small devices inserted into the nostrils to block water or filter air.

Swimmers use them to keep water out during dives and flips: I can't do a flip turn without noseplugs.

They also appear in settings with strong odors or airborne irritants.

Also called nose clips when they pinch the nostrils closed from outside.
