Semi-in-ear design

Echo Buds are designed to gently rest in your ear with a barely there feeling instead of the fully wedged-in feeling of sealed buds with ear tips. The semi-in-ear design keeps you aware of your surroundings unlike earbuds with rubber eartips that seal your ear canal. No seal allows for unobstructed air flow and cooling ventilation for your ear canal.
