No more soreness in the ears, as these REM headphones are crafted with special contours that'll stay put while tossing and turning in the sheets. The earbuds are elongated and disperse pressure along the exterior of the ears. Every ear is slightly different and can be [custom fitted](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/for-me-buds) by pumping air into each piece. The cord is equipped with a soft lining to allow users to be in ultimate comfort while snoozing.
