Which are the olives?

Black Foam Sleeves or the Black Soft Flex Sleeves?

The foam sleeves.

Okay, thanks.

Has anyone tried the flex sleeves? Better or worse?

I definitely prefer the foam ones. I don't like the soft flex much, just doesn't feel as comfortable, as secure or even as sound isolating compared to the foams.

Olives provide noticeably better seal / bass response, and comfort.
(at least, to my ears)

I used flex sleeves on my E2Cs before I bought UEs and found olives. The flex sleeves were comfortable, had a good seal, and decent sound isolation. The Olives are REALLY comfortable (8 hours a day is no problem for me), have amazing seal, and excellent sound isolation!

yea the olives are comfortable and they never seem to wear out, only get more soft and comfortable!

Hi Folks,
 
i used on my Shure SE315 always the 

[size=1em] Gray Soft Flex Sleeves[/size]

and was very happy with them. 
 
Is there something for Sennheiser IE8's? They sound great but don't fit really.
