After a few days of happiness I had the left hear fall out repeatedly on a short 1.5 mile run. I was right ear original design that didn't want to stay in. I swapped medium to large seals but feel pressure. With the large seals I had the other ear pop out. Last night I ordered the foam seals and I'm hoping Apple Store will have spare Apple parts.

There's much great about these things but the fit will have to be solid. The convenience will be gone without that. Then COSTCO price on conventional AirPods with Sony 900s will be a about the same price. For sure superior sound and noise cancellation but not the convenience. It appears I have some trials and tests to do before I cannot return the Pros.

Didn’t you already say all of this in your previous post in this thread?

I posted it for those having problems with the AirPods Pro staying in their ears. I have no problems so no need for me to order them.

Got some foam buds work well with AirPods and close incase

FWIW, personal hygiene could be a factor. Last month I was traveling in a country that was tropical and with some changes and compromises to my usual routines at home. The sweat and sunblock created some slip out. Also on some other site I read trimming ear hair made a difference for some.

When I have fit or slip I think I'm mostly stuck with the issue. I can tell body asymmetry. The post of one pod aims differently than the other when I have a good seal.

Yeah, the airpods pro is slippery as it still has the glossy finish. Maybe apple should launch a special edition airpods like matte to improve the grip. But for now, I have applied this skin from gadgetshieldz to improve the grip and to protect it from scratches.

Well, I used to have a similar issue and thanks to the tips I bought online, problem solved! You just need to attach them on the pods, and voila! I am just sharing a link in case someone would be interested: LINK

I've had mine for 6 days and so far they are staying in place. Went on a 10 mile walk the first day I had them with no problems.
