Yeah, same hear, the upright riding position really crosses the wind strongly, but it also makes it easier to kill it off. I too made my own awhile back, here is the posting link and there are some photos to help understand the construction : https://www.bikeforums.net/5058382-post13.html The key concept for me is that the devices should actually touch your face, so cloth over foam for me.

But these days any active-noise-canceling ear buds will also greatly reduce the wind noise.
