Is the ear loop a soft rubber or a hard plastic? I've had ear surgery and am trying to find ones with a softer more flexible loop that will fit.

I find the ear loop to be comfortable, soft rubber, flexible, and fit well, enjoy them.

Personally, I found it very uncomfortable. I only tried 2 sizes(which I picked using the fact that I usually wear medium/small sized clothes).Both of them were comfy initially, but after 3-4 hours, my ears were hurting. Plastic can never be as soft a silicone(Bose).I bought the Bose Sie2 instead. I often use them for 8-9 hours a day with no discomfort at all.

The ear parts are just fine, but the band around the top of the head is a very hard plastic and just doesn't feel good. I bought these because I love Fairy Tail and wanted some headphones, the day I got them I tried them on and I haven't used them since, I would not recommend unless you just collect Fariytail stuff.

I like the soft silicone/wax ones because you can mold them to your ear. It is my understanding that are ear canals are not the same, so it is nice to have them fit my ear's shape. I hope this helps.

It's flexible. I wear in-ear buds with it. It fits nice and snug. I really enjoy this mask.

The piece that fit around the Bluetooth which is the hook did break but the part that loop around the ear is soft and comfortable and flexible.

The plastic is actually flexible and in a "u" shape. It kinda sits like a ring in a bull's snout, but snugger. They're pretty comfortable and help tremendously.

It's made of hard plastic with a slightly softer coating/layering. The part which sticks out/goes into your ear canal is part of the coating, so it's flexible. I would say that from my experience, these are pretty comfortable earbuds.

If you are talking about the flexible plastic piece that goes into your ear...look on Amazon for replacement ear buds for the ICON. If the actual hard plastic the ear buds go on I think you need to replace the whole Jawbone...GOOD LUCK!!

it is somewhat soft, if it is a small piece or if you curve it, it will stand up. For example, it works really well for fake ear cartilage - I used it for some lamb ears. small pieces will stand up but large will not.

It is a soft inner ear part. It's like a rubberized silicon type of material.

Yes they do, Diana K.. The rubber ear pieces are very flexible and soft and are not made of hard plastic that would hurt and otherwise "smaller" ear. You should be good!

you hit the nail right on the head. Ear piece is still a BIG problem. I am on my 2nd one (ear piece) and it's starting to give me a problem. Wish they could make a stronger one.

It is a soft shell material, but the ear cups have a dual layer of soft, then hard. -W

I had this same problem when I first started using it, but you learn quickly that it is delicate and needs to be handled carefully. Instead of glue/taping it, just search "ear hook loop clip" and get yourself 6 replacements for a couple bucks.

The ear gel (i.e. softer malleable plastic) attaches to a harder piece of plastic but the "gel" piece can rotate. I haven't seen it tend to slip off so much.
