I claim the ornamental design for an ear muff, as shown and described.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an ear muff showing my new design on a head;

FIG. 2 is a left side view of the ear muff in the unfolded position;

FIG. 3 is a right side view of FIG. 2;

FIG. 4 is a front view of FIG. 2;

FIG. 5 is a rear view of FIG. 2;

FIG. 6 is a top-down view of FIG. 2;

FIG. 7 is a bottom-up view of FIG. 2;

FIG. 8 is a left side view of the ear muff in the folded position;

FIG. 9 is a right side view of FIG. 8;

FIG. 10 is a front view of FIG. 8

FIG. 11 is a rear view of FIG. 8;

FIG. 12 is a top-down view of FIG. 8; and,

FIG. 13 is a bottom-up view of FIG. 8.

The broken lines illustrate the environment of the ear muff and form no part of the claimed design.

The ear muff as shown and described is commonly used to reduce noise and protect hearing. The ear muff can also be folded into a ball-like orientation.

The ear muff is characterized by its overall shape in both folded and unfolded positions the headband shape and the surface pattern on the muff caps.

Chow, Julia
