I have a similar problem, I can`t use Apples supplied earphones with their I-pods as there just a little to big so I went to the local Tesco`s and bought a set of Sony ones with the rubber in your ear type fittings, and a longer lead for the princley sum of £7, bargain I thought & they fit a treat. Hope this is of help......

 

[jackassdave]

are they any good though?

Another vote for a Tesco product, not as above but good for flat ears, sports applications etc.

For real quality try something from Sennheiser

Yes mate there perfectly fine, I`ve used them for over 2 years now, so for £7 there a bargain.

I bought a pair of Phillips "over-ear" or "neck-strap" headphones to wear when mountain biking' which as the name suggests, hang off your ears as opposed to sticking in them. They were £5.00 off Amazon and are perfectly adequate for what I use them for. (I have an excellent set of in-ear monitors, but they block out all exterior noise)

Edit: Just looked at the link Red1 posted, that's the type.

On the Gadget show last night the had Goldring GX200 noise cancelling earphones, they have a sponge type bud which fits into the ear they look good and apparently work very well all for £29.31.
Cheers.

Bang & Olufsen do a loverly pair that aregood for folk like us with smal ears.

They are fully adjustable and hook over each ear independently, and are very secure (I wear them when out running and once in place the never move)

cost £99 though but have had them for around 4 years and they are as good as new despite extensive sweaty use around 4 times a week..

BTW they sound brilliant too (as you might expect at that outrageous price)

I've used Microbuds for a couple of years now. They're fairly inexpensive and work a treat.
