Can anyone recommend some decent headphones suitable for jogging with? I've so far tried 2 pairs on the smallest ear buds but they still fall out! I think I must have very small ears... 😅

Hello, I have those ones that have hooks shaped to go around the back of your ears - no problems at all - they stay in place. Then the actual headphone is like the smaller ones but they're in place. Like these (hope link works) very.co.uk/skullcandy-chops...

Mine are much the same, with wires that I can bend and that seem to remember where I wanted them. I got them through Amazon and they cost me £15.99.

I have the same trouble even on the smallest ear buds so I resort to a headband (buff) to hold them in place. I got some cheapo ones from Lidl £3.99 but they seem every bit as good as the Sony ones I had, which conked.

I cannot find the same ones I bought, but here is a link to some similar ones amazon.co.uk/Philips-SHS320...

Mine are black and were about £7, I think. Definitely Philips though.

I hardly notice them, even with sunglasses on

What about the winged buds, where the wing fits into the crevice in the ear, I have a pair of Tao electronics one's that come with different size buds & wings, I find them good, got them off Amazon...

I use Yurbuds. I have small ears too and they never fall out.

I have tiny ears and was really struggling too - I had nicked all my kids earphones to find some that fit, and then bought these, they are awesome! Did not budge once on the last two runs! amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00...

Mine are lidl with a bar that goes around the back of your neck and have been going well for a few years.
