Description
My in-ear earbuds kept falling out during workouts and runs, especially during fast movement. Instead of buying new ones, I designed this simple OWS-style ear hook extension to keep them locked in place.
This small clip attaches to your existing earbuds and adds a lightweight support hook that rests around your ear, preventing slips while exercising.
For the best fit and comfort:
Gently heat the printed part (warm water works well), then carefully bend it to match your ear shape. Once cooled, it will hold its new shape and sit comfortably.
Tested successfully on boAt and Mivi in-ear earbuds. Since many in-ear designs have similar stems, it should also work with other brands of similar size — making it fairly universal.
Small print. Quick fix. No more falling earbuds.
