Comfortable and fairly durable. Fit my ears well.

Really comfortable fit while sealing out virtually all ambient noise. Retain their shape and insert really easy

really comfortable, efficient to isolate sound and cheap. But it might not be as good as a mold, i guess

I purchased a number of tips; all sizes of the comply, Olive, and silicone to find the best for my ear. This size was very comfortable for me, but some of the sound was leaking out. The large olive was the winner for me, but if this size works for you, I believe the olives are slightly better in sound isolation than the comply.

These are decent sleeves and don't seem to soil as quick or easy as other brands of foam sleeves. Noise cancelation is great but they are not near as comfortable as the Comply foam sleeves especially after about 30 minutes of use.

I bought a pack of the medium olives to use on my Westone UM3x. I was using the larger complys and read alot on the forums that these olives would sound nicer. After speaking to the customer service rep at Earphone Solutions decided that the mediums should be a good fit. After receiving it though, they don't squish down as far as the complys and they ended up not fitting my ear as well as the larger Complys. I find myself fiddling with them alot when I have them on trying to get a good seal. In truth it is hard for me to rate since they don't fit me well.

I may have to order a set of small ones, but they aint cheap.

1st of all, these foam olives arrived in a plain unmarked baggie with zero identification, so I don't even know if they are genuine Shure Foams.

I've used the yellow foamies for a couple of years with excellent results, but these olives offer absolutely minimum isolation, and very poor audio fidelity from my E3's.

I've gone back to the modded triple flanges, and haven't even opened the bag these came in since!!
Not a good buy, for sure.

I originally purchased the Shure Olives for use on my Sennheiser IE8's. Experiment #1: After removing the core I fit the Olives to my IE8's and had a listen. Unfortunately, the results weren't what I was looking for. The Olives did help with isolation, however they reduced the soundstage and had an unwanted dampening effect on the highs. A waste of time and money?? Not exactly...

At the time, I also owned a pair of Klipsch S4's. I happened to notice that the core diameter of the Olives looked like a match to the nozzle of the S4's. Experiment #2: test them on the Klipsch. I pulled out my faithful pair, removed the stock silicone tips and fit the Shures with minimal effort. I plugged them into my iPod Touch, rolled the tips and fit them in my ear canals. I could tell instantly that they sealed as well, and possibly better than my favorite oval tips. I flicked through my song list and started playing a number of my favorite songs. I immediately noticed a difference. The highs weren't as aggressive, the mids seemed more defined and the bass was still thumping as hard as ever. Some owners of the S4's have had issues with the highs being sibilant or overly aggressive, I didn't hear them that way. For me they were just a little bright with the stock tips. Now, with the Shure olives the highs seem to have balanced out nicely. The mid range is more noticeable as well, perhaps because the highs aren't as prevalent. Whatever it is, they work. They isolate well, they fit comfortably and they have really balanced the sound of my S4's. Win #1

The following week I received a pair of Etymotic ER-4P's which have a nozzle size similar to the Klipsch. I tested them on my 4P's as well.. Same great results. Win #2

All in all, I'm very satisfied with the Shure olives. They offer great comfort, superior isolation and when used properly (with the core intact), can have a minimal, but sometimes welcome, influence on the sound of your IEM's. Give them a try.

Fits snugly into the ear canal and blocks majority of sound!

Must lower volume level on mp3 player/iPod to avoid going deaf!

Used with Shure models: SCL-4 and SC-530.

I've been using these foams with the Westone UM1 earphones and I'm really impressed. While they are a tad bit less comfortable than the foams that come with the UM1's, they are more durable. I've been using the same pair of Shure black foams for almost 3 months now, so you can definitely do about a year with 5 pairs. The seal is very good with these, resulting in quite a few jumps when people appeared right in front of me without me hearing it!

I couldn't fit these black foam mediums in my ears so I can't evaluate the sound quality. I'm just glad I ordered the yellow foam ones as back-ups. Maybe the small size would fit but the black foam is denser than the yellow foam so I couldn't compress them enough to go into my ear canal.

This sleeves is Rock, support to increase the Bass Impact.
Treble also expand to the wider range stage.
Good also with my UM3X!!!

These are excellent for bass "blackness" with my Audeo PFE, and nice with my Sleek Audio SA-6 thought they fill the ear a bit too much with those... I may have to get the small tips for them.

These are still the most comfortable sleeves I have used. I use them on Westone UM-2 and Westone 3s.

I love these eartips. They don't hurt, fit well, create a good seal, feel stylish and help make great sound. They rock! I wish I had got these replacements earlier instead of putting up with eartips that didn't fit well, didn't seal the sound in and even hurt after awhile.

Quality product - just as expected

These are , far and away, the best sealing foam buds I've tried. I've tried many and none are as comfortable or create that bass loving seal.
