Presenting high quality in-ear headphones engineered and developed by Bose, the most respected name in sound. Enjoy rich audio and a comfortable fit not available from conventional in-ear designs.
You'll hear your music with more range, realism and clarity than with most earbuds. Bose research and engineering are at the core of the remarkable performance of these in-ear headphones. That includes the proprietary TriPort acoustic headphone structure for greater output of low notes from small headphones.
Bose in-ear headphones are designed to be worn comfortably for extended periods of time. Many people experience discomfort from traditional earbuds. But Bose engineers have developed innovative, soft silicone tips shaped to rest easily in the outer bowls of your ears, not the pressure-sensitive ear canals. Tips come in three sizes for a more personal fit. You may find using a different size tip for each ear the most comfortable option. These headphones also come with a lanyard and clothing clip for enhanced stability when you're on the move.
Bose in-ear headphones are engineered specifically for use with laptops, MP3 players and CD players. The audio cable's 3.5 mm angled plug also fits directly into iPod, iPhone and other sources with recessed headphone jacks. Included with purchase is a sleek, protective carrying case with enough extra room for a portable MP3 player.
Try Bose in-ear headphones for quality sound, comfortable design and personal fit. You may appreciate their unique benefits from the first notes of your favorite song.

So I bought these to use at my last job because I had music on for at least 6 hours a day normally. My experience with other Bose products, not headphones, was very positive so I got these fancy little earbuds.
Pros:
Very comfortable, I can wear them all day and the stay put and don't make your ears sore.
Crystal clear sound across the whole sound spectrum at low to mid volume.
Ear pieces are easy to switch out and come in multiple sizes.
Cons:
Ear pieces come off way to easy and I've nearly lost them a few times.
Bass gets terribly distorted if you crank these up beyond the mid volume.
They are not durable at all. The wire covering cracks quickly exposing wire, especially at the base of the earbuds and at the input jack.
Overall, I can't say these are worth the money. I can get past the bass distortion, I can handle the ear pieces coming off every so often, but the wiring falling apart? Seriously Bose... how the hell can you put your name on a product that falls apart so easily?

Bad points:
a) silicon tips do not seal tightly regardless of which size (small, med, large included). This means you can hear external sounds which can be good and bad. This also means they can fall off/out of the ear canal requiring adjustment. Lastly, this means that you must turn the volume up approx. 30% or more to achieve listenable volumes.
b) The tips easily fall off the earbud and, in my case, get lost easily. I have used all the provided pairs of replacement tips and am now purchasing replacement sets so I can continue to use the earbuds.
c) wire is heavy gauge, and a good length for most uses.
d) Plug-in connector is perfect size to fit through silicon skins (many are too large and are pushed out).
e) comes with lapel clip that works acceptably

Used for last 7 months. Silicone buds fall off constantly and hard to find due to color. Had to buy extras online. Bad enuf, but then the right earpiece fall apart. Had to glue that together. I don't use them for exercise or running. That's the reason for the low rating. Still, no real bass but decent mid and upper range. Not really what I expected from Bose. These were rated higher at one time but I recommend going to a shop and trying a few competitors out before you buy.
Don't let upper end price fool you either as I had another higher priced set that failed after 1 yr and they couldn't be fixed.
I have used ear buds a long time and over the ears for 25 yrs so I think that qualifies as an experience amateur. Didn't know I would have to be a repairman as well.

As noted in many reviews already posted, there is a quality problem with these earphones. After less than 18 months of gentle use (but over the 12-mo warranty) the wires and their protective covering frayed and separated where they enter the jack. Bose service rep says this is not repairable (I can't imagine why not, except they'd rather not). He offered me the 'opportunity' to replace the earphones for $50. Say what? Why would I want to pay that for the same product after it fell apart? As usual, Bose's promotion and advertising far exceeds product performance.

I'm not a Bose fan but after trying innumerable earbuds I'm thrilled to have found these. I was about to buy a set of shures (can't remember the model) but after sampling these it was a no brainer for me. Bass is surprising - I wasn't aware earbuds could put that much out. I find the highs and mids just right for me.
When I originally bought these they came with three silicone earbud tips (SM, MED and LG), the headphones and a leatherette case. It took several days of playing and getting used to the feel as they simply "sit" in your ear - no pushing or twisting involved. Originally I felt they were insecure and was thinking of returning them, but after trying them steady for about a week I got used to them and now LOVE the fit. I also use them to work out and was dissatisfied that the tips would fall off too easily (while running sometimes my hand would catch the cord resulting in my ripping the bud out of my ear and resulting in the silicone tip flying away). Also when I began sweating the buds would slip out of my ear too easily. Consumers complained about this and Bose responded: BRAVO! Bose now supplies an updated version that has a redesigned silicone tip that snaps in place - no more eartip flying away! Also there is lanyard which when attached sits behind your neck and effectively takes the weight off the cord - when properly adjusted the headphones don't fall out of my ears when running. Of course, I purchased the non-updated set; however by logging onto the Bose website you can request the updated features for your headphones free of charge. I completed the request and a week later and the three sets of updated eartips and the lanyard. Was very impressed! I highly recommend these earbuds but suggest you give them several days to get used to them as the design is fit is so different from the norm.
Four stars b/c during intense summer workouts and I sweat profusely, the earbuds will still slip out at times. This is easily solved by wiping the buds dry on your shirt (if you can find a dry spot) but it is a bit of a pain when running for time.
One other note: I've never had them fall out when on the elliptical or treadmill. When lifting weights or doing situps: they suck. b/c of the way they sit in your ear when you lie on your back they slip right out. I might consider another set for working out that wraps around the ear (but have been using these for over a year and only occasionally have to fight to keep them in my ear), but for the sound - I'll never go back to another earbud.
