I use my JBuds Flex open air clip-on style. I can't even feel they are on. Works great.

I have a pair of JLab flex open earbuds - they hug your ear like the Bose version, but much cheaper. I like that they don’t go over my ears so there’s no competition with sunglasses.

Jlab flex is where I'm at. Bufs fall out but these don't and look like jewelery

Have you considered clip-on earbuds or a neckband style speaker? I have the JLab Flex Open and the sound is decent for the price. I do notice them on my ears after wearing them for a bit. I also own the Sony Theater U. It has surprisingly good stereo sound but does move around a bit depending on what you are doing.

I have a pair of Shokz and a pair of those open JLAB ones that clip on the ears. The Shokz are way better sound quality and more comfortable.

I use jlab flex. Not as nice as the bine conducting ones, much cheaper.

I don't like earbuds that go in my ears as they are uncomfortable. I use the JLab Felx Open Earbuds. I don't think others can hear my music, but I'm not listening to it very loud.

Anker soundcore a30i are my favorite right now. Also jlab go pop+, but they don't have the noise canceling. The anker you can find on sale for $20 pretty regularly, and they're the best buds I've ever worn for fit, clarity and noise canceling. And I have probably 30 sets including beats. I had a previous set, and one bud started buzzing. I filled a claim, answered a few questions, and they sent me a replacement set within the week. Customer services was slow to reply to email, like 24 hour responses, but still replaced easily. The next pair has been perfect. I also like the tozo and jlab open ear. And the jlab jbuds mini are the smallest in case I've ever seen, and it fits in my keychain.
