I got my PSVR2 and love it so far but the earbuds that come with it will not stay in my ears. No matter what adjustments I make to them they fall out within a few minutes of play.

Am looking for some advice as to what you guys are doing or if you have found some sort of ear hook to help hold them in place better.

I know for my AirPods, when I am running or exercising I have these things I put on them that do an awesome job. I can do a backflip and they won’t come off:

Only issue is that the earbuds with the PSVR2 are wired, which creates an issue with getting them on. I had searched through Amazon and I cannot seem to find anything that will work that is similar due to the cord/wire getting in the way.

Anyone got any suggestions or has anyone had this same issue and found a workaround?

Op, you should know that you can unplug the psvr2 earbuds from the device. They aren't hard wired in, it just plugs in via a 3.5mm connector

This also means you can use any wired earbuds, I use my nicer ones for better sound quality

I think the best and cheapest bet is to use a different 3.5mm pair since that's all the PSVR2 buds are. I have the same problem with silicone tipped earbuds in general. They just don't stay put. That's why I prefer over the ear personally.

You could use the ear clips you linked if you cut a slit in one side of the sleeve then zip tie or glue them in place.
