I have the Sedici 3. Works well for my RX sunglasses but needs some adjusting for my regular glasses. No eyeglass groves in the pads, but still a comfortable helmet for glasses.
I use Raycon sport earbuds. Fit like ear plugs and has different sized “wings” to help them stay in your ears.
I’m a material handler for a decently sized company, and most of my time is divided between very physical labor in a clean room gown, and very physical labor in a warehouse. I’ve been at the job for about a year and a half, and in this time I’ve gone through about 3 pairs of earbuds (Raycon Sports, AirPod 3s, and now I’m on a pair of Moondrop Space Travel 2s). I use Moondrop Chu 2s at home for music, and Pulse Explores for gaming/calls in tandem with a standalone mic, but I’d really love something that isn’t as hindered by laborious work and sweaty heads.
Before anyone brings it up: no, I don’t listen to music while driving my forklifts, and wireless is preferred because the cables tend to get tangled while I’m wearing them since my arms have to be a flurry of bags and boxes being opened.
The raycons did die due to sweat (evidenced by the crackling and then shock I got before they stopped working), and the AirPods don’t have great fall protection but did have a tendency to fall due to sweat. Wasn’t losing them or anything, they just weren’t really suited for the environment.
Raycon just gave me their Open Ear Earbuds to try. They turned out to be great! I'll be using them for local running, where I have to hear if a car is coming.
For trails or races, I use Skull Candy plug in over the ear headphones.
I had similar issues with Raycon's mic quality - it's pretty hit or miss tbh. The open earbuds are better for letting ambient sound in but I'd honestly look at the Shokz OpenRun instead, their mics are way more consistent for calls
raycon isn't really made for sleeping though, they're way too bulky. i use sleep earbuds on flights all time for work and regular earbuds just don't stay comfortable when you're trying to rest your head against window or anything.
from the ones you listed, i'd probably go with ozlo since they're specifically designed for side sleeping. the noise masking works pretty well for airplane engines in my experience, though it's different than active cancellation. somnipods are decent too but battery life wasn't great when i tried them last year.
