Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. I’m a person with ears that do not work with silicone tips either. I love the fit of AirPods. Tried AirPods Pro, and for my ears, they suck. Doesn’t matter what size tips I use, they seal poorly and fall out constantly. Regular AirPods fit great.

Edit: grammar

Edit 2: that being said, I want to try these because I really want replaceable batteries for my earbuds. It may be moot for me though as I live in the US and currently they aren’t shipping to the US.

yah, luckily airpods 1:1 clones are like $20.

i have downvotes completely hidden so i wouldn't have noticed.

I haven’t used the clones yet, but I’ll likely go with something like that when these die.
