For a long time I had the beats that hook over your ears and they were

Great for working out. Then I got some JBL earbuds that I have liked, but would eventually fall out when running. Tried the beats fit with the inner ear hook thing. Great reviews and everyone says they stayed in…but not for me. No matter which size or how I positioned them, they would slowly turn in my ears and fall out, so I returned them. Was waiting for the Jabra’s to go on sale but moved to apple before I had a chance. Just got the AirPod pros and they are the best I’ve had. Didn’t think I’d be a fan of the “stem”, but they stay in better than any other in ear bud I’ve had.

Make them cheap with just a pair of scissors**

Ha. I actually don't like wireless ones. I only used wired...

If you're buying them for gym use, go cheap or 100% waterproof**
EDGEMAN • 12/11/24 09:32 AM ET
Yeah, that's kinda the answer I'm looking for. These are gymmie buds.
UEMcGill • 12/11/24 10:01 AM ET
If you go with earbuds, then get the ones that have a cord between them...
EDGEMAN • 12/11/24 10:35 AM ET
I've got some by Beats that are nice. They also weren't super expensive.
