Do you mean that you find these more comfortable than traditional in-ear headphones?
Yeah lol super comfortable. Also no ear infections this fall/winter lol
I'm also prone to ear infections so I'll have to try these out. I tend to use over-ear headphones 24/7 because of it but sometimes if I'm walking home at night I feel safer with in ears
These are awesome and let you still hear your surroundings. I highly recommend them.
I'm also prone to idiocy + walking into traffic so that's great news
I have the jlab version and they're comfortable enough, but they're pinching the side of your ear so they do get uncomfortable after a while. I still prefer them to standard earbuds, but I'm also prone to ear infections so...
Keep in mind sound quality probably isn't quite on par with similar priced earbuds, but they're great for podcasts. +1 for these being a "glad I bought them" impulse buy.
