Need tips for IEMs which *do* let in ambient sound

My wife has started running with a pair of Jaybird Bluebud X IEMs.  I love these headphones for running and have found the Comply Comfort Plus tips (Tsx-500) to be very comfortable and sound isolating enough for me.
 
But my wife would prefer to be able to hear external sounds, so she ends up using the supplied Jaybird tips (which don't create a super tight seal to begin with) and just pulls them out a bit.  But then they tend to fall out and have to be reseated periodically during the run.
 
Are there any tips out there that she could try that would stay in the ear but also let in as much external sound as possible?  I realize this is the opposite effect most of us are looking for in IEMs :)
 
Thanks,
Lee
