Airpods 3rd gen do not fit

My airpods 3rd gen do not sit well in my ears, especially my left ear. I read up and tried every way to fit them but they fall off even if I shake my head. Of course, like all Apple products, I spent an arm and leg for it, but I cannot see any solution to this problem. The airpods 1st gen were absolutely perfect, such a let down now. Is someone out there who has a similar problem, is there something I can do to feel my money's worth? Thank you

iPhone 11, iOS 15

Greetings parita,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities!


We understand your AirPods aren't fitting in your ears. We'd like to provide some options.


If you recently purchased these AirPods, you may be able to return them to the retailer. Check with them to find out their return policy.


The AirPods (3rd generation) do not have a specific ear tip or any other accessories to help hold them in your ear. If they aren't fitting, you may need to return or look into purchasing the AirPods Pro or Beats which offer ear tips to contour to your ear canal. You can view the heigh, width, depth, and weight of each AirPod here: AirPods - Compare Models - Apple


If you need additional help, please reach out here: Contact Apple Support


Take care.
