I have always used and recommended the H20 ear buds in the past but they have had short comings like the cord being too long, or sometimes weak rubber on the ear pieces. Having said that I always recommend them since they are much better then the earphones that come with most waterproof MP3 players. This latest lap swimming version of their product is the best and I can find no faults with it at all. Somehow they even manage to make the music louder which you really need in lap swimming scenario. They also always stay in my ears and I use the larger rubber tips. Another thing that works even better you can replace the ear buds with New Bee 12pcs Ultra Strong Earphone Memory Foam tips or similar product. The foam expands when water is on them and provides and excellent seal. They degrade over time but really cheap anyway and better then hassling with water in you ear.
Also some helpful tips on using waterproof ear buds:
1. Start with the larger ear bud rubber ends first then work your way down to the smaller sizes if that doesn't fit. If you use the larger sizes, you get a tighter barrier against the water.
2. I like to insert them dry but if they don't fit quite right you should consider wetting the ear buds lightly in the water before you place them in your ear, sometimes the water will keep them more secure in your ear. However, I have found the best way to keep them in your ear is to use a swab on the outside area of your ear briefly to get any oil or sweat where the buds are inserted (but not the ear canal). This always seems to work best and will ensure a tight fit.
3. When you insert them in your ear pull back the top of your ear with your opposite hand, that will stretch it and allow the ear canal to gently wrap snugly around the ear bud.
It is rare when the water enters the ear canal if you take these three steps you can enjoy the music much better. Once water gets in your ear you are hosed for the rest of the swim and that goes for any ear piece.
I also recommend using the Waterproof MP3 player from SEWOBYE with these as well for the best experience in listening to music while you swim. You can read my review on that product for more background. Happy swimming!
I have the waterproofed iPod Shuffle and had some other waterproofed headphones but the sound quality was barely acceptable even for my drastically reduced expectations and it was constantly losing sound on one side after a few laps of swimming. So, I decided I needed a replacement and decided to give these H2O headphones a try. I figured that it couldn't possibly be worse than what I had been dealing with.
Well, I have to say that these headphones definitely exceeded my expectations and this is from a bonafide audiophile who is extremely anal about sound quality. No, it does not compare to the Audeze LCDi4 in-ears or my custom-molded JH Audio IEM, but for $40 that takes the monotony out of swimming laps, it delivers excellent sound and has proven to be quite reliable. You're dealing with water and bubble noise so all audiophile sonic details will be lost anyway. You just want a good solid fundamental sound with a decent soundstage and that is what these headphones deliver.
I primarily listen to classical music and having Chopin's Nocturnes or Brahms' piano concertos playing in my ears while swimming can be quite a blissful experience and it actually encourages me to swim longer and with more energy. I now swim 30~40 minutes non-stop while listening to music when I used to quit after 15~20 minutes due to the sheer tedium of swimming laps. So, yes, in effect, these headphones are actually making me healthier and I'm sure it'll do the same for many others. Highly recommended.

This is the second pair I bought after using it well for many miles of swimming because of wear and tear on the thin cord.
