Do you have any reccomendations for good headphones with wingtips?
The akg n400 has a set of pretty small wingtips in the box, though they really only excel in frequency reponse

Freaking weird?
In all seriousness, they're just a flavour of IEMs with a kind of ear hook. I haven't been able to find a dedicated name for them, but I have found separate hooks for sale, usually so they can be added to airpods.
I’ve always called them wingtips or sportsbuds lol
I call them "annoying fuckers" cuz damn, they just never fit lmao
Really? For me those are the only one that fit lol
Those I like to call semi in ear buds with wingtips. Their like a cross between IEMs and earbuds. I use to own a pair of bose's that had those and I will say I miss them some of the most comfortable pieces of gear I've owned sounded decent as well.
I call it earaxe now
Uncomfortable
I call them “uncomfortable”
Those are usually shipped with IEMs marketed as "sports" or "active".
I call them „Joshua“, because jo can be shua they won‘t fall off if they fit
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I hate you
Moondrop
good one, actually.
The headphone is an ear bud… and the tips can be called many things.
🪽wingtips or simply a tip with a flange
Batarangs
dunno. my favorite fit. Soundpeats are cheap and have an excellent group of ear pieces.
bat-eary powered?

The kind that bose has lol. Super comfy

Those are either Bose Stayhear tips or Quiet Comfort headphones or knockoffs attached to a random headphone. I had several pairs of the Quiet Comforts a decade ago. Aliexpress claims to still sell them.
The earhugger
annoying.
Bose
No highs, no lows. Must be Bose.
I believe these were intended to be fitness related
What is the earphone model in the picture?
Not 100% but I had some "active" Bose ones about 10-12 years ago that looked exactly like this. I forget the model name but they fit well and stayed in nicely while running. They were also about 100 dollars more than they should have been.
