I am in and out of new houses shoes are not always an option. Hinge joint cracked and were no longer useable. Amazing sound quality at this price. Quality product and the seller shipped quickly! They are supportive yet cushy, perfect house shoes. I know this might be different for each user but these ear buds fit me well and I have no problem with them staying in. I stopped using it religiously for that reason, not sure if I?m the only one who?s had that problem. I purchased one for my husband and its small Such an easy, affordable way to make our closet and his shoe area look neater. I intentionally bought these for my kids shoes and they are simply too flimsy to be used by kids.
