what are your thoughts on these triangle ear skins ?

[ViolentJayne]

I know plugs with shapes other that round can be death to the lobes which is kind of funny considering Ive recently seen "coffin shaped plugs " .. any way I also came across some triangle and square shaped ear skins ...so what do you guys think would these destroy the ears or is it a great solution to the delima of wearing "shaped plugs " ?

ive never heard of shaped plugs killing ears. Alot of my friends with big ears wear teardrops and triangle an i have never heard ne thing negative about them. i hope they dont kill lobes lol cuz i love teardrop plugs </3

Ive heard tear drops are ok and I know a guy whos worn them for years .. but I heard that square and triangle puts uneven pressure on the points .. there are some links around here somewhere to some real horror stories about square plugs ruining ears with some pretty disturbing pics ... but I have never tried

here is a link to another discusion about shaped plugs .. but not ears skins specificaly .. I guess I probably should have just posted my question there lol

Personally, I don't like 'em... but they are a bit different! Not sure about what they do to your lobes? Would have thought they would be ok in well healed lobes maybe?

Oddly-shaped plugs are okay to wear for a day or so, but I wouldn't wear them any longer than that. I'm not sure if the silicone ones would be any better but silicone shouldn't be worn for very long either, haha.
