Some good noise cancelling headphones are very helpful in this type of environment. If you can't get out of the office this is the next best option.

I use ear muffs over my in-ear headphones, the noise isolation is really good, but it gets uncomfortable after a while. Also some extroverted coworkers complain about my earmuffs isolating me from the team.
