I second this hard but actually prefer a kind of hybrid type. just looked at the one’s I’m using now and they are by diofit. They make a silicone foam option that’s literally like it sounds and mixes the benefits of each type together. (The pure memory foam can be a little too form fitting so they are hard to remove and over-isolating)
Comment on Earbugld question: Does anyone actually like to silicone tipped earbuds over the solid plastic ones?

I like the ones with memory foam tips. The rubber mushroom tip ones make distracting noises when you move around while wearing them. They amplify noise from the cable rubbing on stuff so they’re really only good when you’re sitting still.
But if im sitting still I’d rather wear over the ear headphones

There was a company that did hybrid tips. Memory foam but with silicone outer shell. This made them stay clean, while also blocking sound and great fit. But the ones I bought are no longer available and I have not yet found a replacement.
