Comfortable and good for exercise
By carson from maple, ontario on October 25, 2011
I would personally prefer these over the silicon standard eartips. These are much cheaper, sweat proof, and comfortable. Although they dont provide as secure of a fit for runners, they are very comfortable. They dont provide as good of isolation as with the foam tips, but they dont absorb highs like the foam tips do. I would not recommend these on westone 3 because the highs would be quite piercing. I loved these tips with the westone 2 because they bring out all the clarity i didnt hear with comply tips. These are great for conditions where sweat may ruin foam tips.
Pros:
-good for exercise
-cheaper than standard siliccon tips
-comfort
I would recommend this item to a friend.
Good fit but sacraficed sound quality
By Seth from Hempstead, NY on December 22, 2010
I wanted to like these tips but just couldn't. They gave me a good seal and were comfortable, plus they are extremely durable. Unfortunately, when compared to the shure Olives it sounds tinny. Now, everyones ears are different so this might just be me, but I noticed a big difference between these and the Shure Olives
Merchant Response:
I too prefer the Shure PA910 but keep in mind that this is very personal.
Some customers love the Triple-Flange and I can't stand them :)

Just like the originals
By Jean from Lima, Peru on April 17, 2010
I'm actually using them with a pair Etymotic hf5 earphones and they fit perfectly. For me they are more comfortable than the triple flange provided. They don't isolate as much, but the difference is minimal.
Pros:
Comfort
Isolation

Bad fitting sleeves don't stay in, slip out, leakage
By Chauncey from Portland, OR on January 12, 2010
What I was looking for: a slightly-less isolating sleeve for my UM-1's. The original foam sleeves are comfortable and awesome fitting/sounding, but can block out TOO much sound for some situations requiring interaction with others, plus insertion/removal is an ordeal for casual listening on errands. Foam also also get kind of unsightly with use and wear out pretty quickly. Unfortunately, these silicone replacements were not the answer - they didn't grip any better than stock iPod buds. and the sound was even worse because of the poor seal. I'm going back to foam.
Pros:
Easy to clean, durable, cheap per pair.
Cons:
Poor fit, meaning they fall out easily don't seal properly so yield a poor sound, particularly in the bass.
Merchant Response:
Keep in mind eartips are just like shoes. What works for some will not work for others as we are basically trying to match our ear canal anatomy with one of the eartips size and material.
Most Comfortable for Me
By Douglas McMane from CT on October 11, 2009
Best, most comfortable for me of the sleeves included in a starter pack for the Westone 3.
Pros:
Very comfortable for me.
Sound quality comes through great.
Cons:
Why not include Westone 3 in the list of earphones these fit?
I would recommend this item to a friend.
Merchant Response:
Thanks for the suggestion. We will do that! ;)

I got these for UM1s. They were exactly what I was looking for. Blocked out noise, comfortable and easy to pop in and out. Perfect for the UM1s.
Only one that works
By Randy on February 8, 2009
I almost gave up. I tried all the foams, flanges, comply sleeves--all of them. Could not get a comfortable seal, and therefore no bass. These things work, and they're so comfortable you will forget they are there. If you use a device these will fit, they will get out of it everything that is gettable.
