Echo Buds are semi-in-ear earbuds designed to keep you connected to your surroundings.

Echo Buds are designed to gently rest in your ear to deliver a barely there feeling and should not be wedged into the ear canal.
Semi-in-ear earbuds do not use ear tips and do not seal off the ear canal, allowing the user to hear outside noise whether riding through busy traffic or tranquil nature.
Echo Buds design allows for unobstructed air flow and cooling ventilation for your ear canal.

Ear Placement Procedure

Gently place the earbuds in your ear so they rest naturally. They should evoke a 'barely there' feeling (for long term comfort). Do not push towards ear canal to block sounds - Echo Buds (2023 Release) are designed to allow external sounds in for awareness.

For natural fit, you may need to rotate your earbuds once placed in your ear. Typically, the bottom tip of your Echo Buds should point in the direction of your mouth.
