I have small ears as well, so I'm always using the smallest adapters available, and at times, some of them are too big. That said, these fit me well, when using the smallest adapters. You have to make sure you use the smallest "wheel", and the smallest actual headphone cover. Also, make sure to use the rubber headphone covers and opposed to the "felt" cover. This combination works perfect for my small ears. I can wear these easily for 5 hours without them becoming uncomfortable, but after that, you do start to feel them, but for me anyway, that's the case with all earphones.

Did you ever find one a bluetooth or headset that works? I am having a similar problem. My ears and canals are small, so nothing seems to stay on my ear. I was thinking about trying a bluetooth that has headphones that go over your head or behind your neck, have you tried this type? I agree that they need to make these child size as well!

I just read your comments and was wondering which product you were talking about. I also have a hard time finding a bluetooth or head phones that stay on my ears. I have almost completely given up on a bluetooth, but was considering trying one of the bluetooth headsets that go behind your neck or over your head? Any suggestions?

The general pain with headphones is the size of the ear cuff, as well as size of head to what this fits. If you are replacing the headphones because they hurt your ears, I would recommend passing these by. The cushions for the ears are not large enough to avoid that very same problem with these head phones. you should invest in ones that have larger ears(and probably sounds proofing, as these don't have any)

Now I'm really confused! According to the CNET review, this is an "over the ear" type of bluetooth headset. I don't think I can stand to have an earbud stuck in my ear. Nuts, and I was just about to buy the silly thing too! Any ideas out there for those of you who can't stand to have anything stuck in your ears?Help!Carol

The traditional "bud earphones" do hurt my ears. The new style "in ears" do not. I have been using "in ears" for about eight years and I have had no problems, including these pink sports ones.

I won't lie, after 3-4 hours of use, the bone transducers become noticeable, but not painful. I don't usually wear them for hours, so it is NOT an issue for me. If you do indeed wear headphone for hours, maybe you should reflect on your lifestyle. There is a whole world out there that doesn't need a constant soundtrack.

Having the same problem but that's the difference between an ear bud and a full headset. The weight of the unit is pulling the unit down against the ears causing the discomfort.For the price, one would like a little more comfort. I tried this...along with the ear hooks, I attached a small lanyard to the unit and then put that around my neck to pick up some of the weight of the unit.Pressure relief about 60%. Helps when watching long period movies.Good luck

I wear glasses and they feel fine. There's no pressure on the back of the ear, so that's good. My only complaint is that I have small ears so they do start to hurt a bit in that area. Hope this helps!

My thought too - I actually returned a set because I couldn't get to fit and then later tried it again. You have to work it onto the post - but they actually do fit - and very tightly which is what you want. BTW - I love these. I have very small ear canals and have never been able to get ear buds to work. The standard Apple buds are a total waste of money on someone like me. I'm glad that there are companies like Comply that actually think about this stuff.

My husband has told me these earphones are the most comfortable he has ever worn. The ear cups are oblong and the padded cushion rests gently on the outer ear so that the ear hole is not in any way impacted. He has experienced no ear hole pain and states that the sound quality is exceptional. I am very sensitive to earphones as are you and have found them to be comfortable when I have used them as well. I hope this is helpful.

I'm also experiencing discomfort. Sometimes slight pain in my ear and sometimes some kind of dizziness... I'm using Bose QC20 in-ear earplugs.

Thank you for your description detailing the position of the earpiece loop. I readjusted the earpiece so the loop would go in as you described, and it appears to have eliminated the discomfort problem.

I personally have not had a problem with them hurting my ears due to their weight. I've had good luck with them so far. I like being able to adjust the tone as well as well as left to right balance...

my ears are pretty small and they fit fine cause you gotta squeeze them first anyways, just remember to Pull gently on the earlobe to straighten the ear canal. pull it up and straight back for adults, down and back for children, then insert it, otherwise it will just bend and won't go in. hope i helped :)

Unless you have small ears, these are ON ear. I don't have abnormally large ears, and they start to hurt after 30 minutes or so.

Comfort will differ greatly according to the shape of your ear. I find this very uncomfortable after about 30 minutes of wearing. It doesn't fall out of my ear, per se, but sometimes it just doesn't feel settled. From other answers given, I am probably a mutant, though. And very late to the party, it seems.

I have small ears and when I saw the size of these I thought they would simply be too big and I would have to remove them. The large pads fit over my ears which is really surprisingly comfortable so it's like my ears sit inside them? I've been using these for over 8.5 hours a day working and never once have they gotten uncomfortable or itchy like a pair I have that sits on my ears nor have the gotten sweaty (FL heat). They look large and are highly adjustable but even at no headband adjustment that are snug and have never slipped off. For me, this is prob the most comfortable headset I've used besides my Sony MDR-V6 headphones (too different functions and price points though of course!)

I find them to be a bit of a pain to get into my ears, and once they are in, they begin to hurt after awhile. I assume that is because they are too big for my ear canal. I stopped using them and went back to another type of ear plug.
