 Don't Buy These When You Can Make Them For Cheap!! May 2, 2005
36 out of 46 found this review helpful
You can make these by hacking up a cheap pair of earplugs from your local sporting goods store. This is the description/review I have posted elsewhere describing the process (initially posted for the E2Cs):
I love these headphones. They sound great, they have great isolation, and they are very durable. BUT, I had almost resigned myself to an unneccessarily painful fit: I have normal sized ears, but I couldn't get either the smallest plastic or foam inserts to be comfortable for more than an hour before I felt like my ears were going to bleed from the outward pressure of these buds . . . until I had a thought: "Why doesn't Shure sell these phones with the small-ish inserts like Etymotics uses.
I had remembered the earplugs that I had used to take all of my biggest exams with, so I went down to my local sporting goods store, browsed the hunting and shooting section and found $2 rubber earplugs with three "fins" on them like the Etymotics. These plugs are hollow, so all you have to do is carefully cut a small hole on the end, cut off the bulk of the back of them (the opposite end of what you put in your ear), stick them on the bare tubes of the Shures, and eureka! My EC2s fit perfectly and sooooo much more comfortably.
I have since learned that Shure sells inserts like these for an extortive price, but why buy when you can make them for 1/5 the price. I reccommend buying 2 or 3 pairs of the earplugs your first go-around, just in case you butcher the first pair like I did.
 Better seal, less comfort March 15, 2005

As nice as the E3c's are, how they sound is highly dependent on the seal you get. The triple-flange sleeves are designed to get you a better seal in your ear, and they do accomplish that (in comparison with the other plastic sleeves originally included with the earphones).
Nevertheless, these sleeves have a big drawback: they're extremely uncomfortable. They are very long and often feel like they're putting pressure on my inner ear, pressure that extends almost into the throat area. If I were to do it all over again, I would buy a pack of replacement foam sleeves instead. I believe you can get a 10-pair pack of the foam replacements for $20. The foam inserts are simply more comfortable (more like a soft earplug) and, if replaced often enough, create a seal with relative ease.
 They finally stay in my ears! October 18, 2005

I love my Shure E3C earphones and up until recently was pretty happy with the foam sleeves. However, I was constantly having to reset them in my ears when engaged in strenuous activities.
The first time I tried these triple flange sleeves I thought I had wasted my money. Later I pulled my ear up and they slid in a lot further... and suddenly I was in heaven. I get the full sound that I love so much complete with throbbing bass line AND the things stay in my ears until I pop them out!! These are the perfect complement to a wonderful headset :)
Much comfier than what comes with the shures... August 3, 2005

I ordered the triple flange sleeves because the Etymotic earbuds had such great reviews for comfort, but it seemed like the Shure E3Cs had better reviews for quality. So I figured, why not get the best of both worlds! And I was right!
The wide variety of sleeves that comes with the E3Cs will probably satisfy most people. I found the smallest thin-rubber (grey) ones to be the most comfortable. But even then, it wasn't an absurd amount of comfort, or something I could forget about. With the Triple Flange sleeves, it was perfect comfort. I've worn them for hours at a time on several trans-pacific flights, and they are good for just laying back, blocking out the noise of the jets, and listening to good music.
So all in all, a great addition to the E3Cs.
WOW! READ THIS BEFORE USING November 28, 2005

I got these on Friday. After five minutes i was ready to kill Shure - $15 for pain! I probably injured my ears on these things trying to get them to fit normally. I would follow the normal instructions, putting my ear back and inserting them - they would cut through the backs of my ears, causing a sharp searing pain. Finally I read the amazon.com review (thanks!) and it said just to pull my ears UP: not any to the side- WOW THESE ARE AMAZING! GO SHURE!(but the instructions are still bad as ever)
