Can I use a Ribcap with hearing aids?

Ribcap's design focuses on providing protection for the head, particularly against impacts and abrasions. While wearing a Ribcap, you should be able to use a hearing aid simultaneously. The material is typically flexible and should not interfere with the placement or function of a hearing aid.
