mine only lasted 3 months. they lost compression, the wax guard filter started peeling off. was using it around 3-4hrs a day
True, even without the bounce back memory effect they are more comfortable and superior to stock silicone, but the seal (and ANC) is perceptibly better when they still behave like new. I'll look into CharJens, but unlike Dekonis they have no distribution where I live.
I had exactly the same thing happen with CharJen and Comply. It simply seems to be the way these buds go.
I don’t recall it happening (so quickly) with foam tips on other earphones.
I’ve scanned through a lot of the posts in this thread and didn't see anyone else mention my issue - the fit is fine, but the Apple stock tips make my ears itch terribly. Does anyone else have this issue and do the foam tips make a difference?
Yes, this is the main reason I switched to foam from silicone a long time ago and it removes the itching completely.

I switched to inairs tips https://getinairs.com/
great seal and seem to be holding up well, Really comfortable and secure.
Thinking about some custom tips https://snugs.com/custom-fitting/
may be a bit of a pain taking them off every time to put the APP’s in the case & not cheap at nearly £200.. anyone use them?

Yes, that’s what brings me to this thread. I don’t know of any allergy to silicone, but the silicone OEM tips make my ears itch even after just a little time wearing them.

And odds that apple would make them backward compatible with current APP? Probably not great....
Why not? The watch bands have been compatible for six generations and a significant size change.
I seem to have issues with the apple stock tips and it does make ear itch, even to a point I have some clear liquid discharge coming out of my ear. I immediately switched to comply tip memory foam 2.0 and have been great, and very comfortable to my hear and have no issues with it.
I am using Dekoni Bulletz foam for Apple AirPods Pro. They fit well and are comfortable.
Drop.com is now having them on sale $15.00 for 3 pairs, available in either gray or black for the next 4 days when the group purchase closes. Can be purchased as one size, SML, for all three pairs or mixed sizes. The Drop purchase is a great deal, as they cost $12.99 a pair on Amazon where I purchased my first pair.

I started with their 1.0, very comfortable... but the tips would fall off the airpods. They resolved that issue when I got 2.0s... I found them very uncomfortable, due to the core that nearly stuck out the foam and couldn’t make them stay seal with the test. I’m back with apple’s silicone tips for now. Annoyed that Charjen only sells some of their tip options that come with S/M & M/L together. I use the large silicones, the S/M tips are worthless for me in the pack. I’m not ordering their active or form tips until I can order the right size.
I have comply v2 tips and they’re great.
I've been looking for larger tips for my AirPods Pro. Any recommendations? I haven't used my Pros in forever since I can't get a good seal and take advantage of the 'pro' benefits.
I received mine today too, and I need to do more testing, but the bass in these seems way less than what I'm getting from my Comply foam tips. I'll do some more listening later today switching between the two and report back.
Outside of that, they're quite comfortable and don't slip out of my ears at all.
Took the CharJen Active 2.0 for a run in the rain this morning and no issues with them falling out. Seem to grip my ears well, time will tell if it stays that way but the Apple tips never stayed in my ears. Comply were also good but lost their springiness quite quickly so hoping the silicone will allow these to last longer.
