yeah even if they fit it will probably be uncomfortable and the earphones might break
like the guy above i always rock my smokin buds underneath my helmet, i just wrap the wire around my ear so it doesnt fall out since trying to put it back in under the earflap is a bitch in gloves or going bare hands when its wicked cold

and if you have the holt cant you just get the skullcandy earpads?
those would probably be more comfortable than earbuds though you can only use them on your helmet and cant just wear them around like regular headphones

if those are the ones im thinking of get them. they are clip on icons without the connecting thing that goes over your head. they would be perfect.

I have a RED trace helmet i cut holes out in it so i could fit my fatter peices of my icons so it does not squeeze against my head
Before i cut the holes out what also works is that lowriding your headphones as far they go but im not to shure if eny one of these sugestions

If you're not using your earpads, and your wearing a beanie... don't be afraid to trim away abit of the foam on the inside of your helmet. I know people who know people that do this

thats acually not a bad idea but i was talking about the holt's earpads (a la giro tuneups) that you could buy those would probably be the most comfortable. I dno its all gonna depend ho big the helmet is if its on the latge side icons with the piece over your head might fit but if its a tight fit normally i wouldnt bet on it

exactly when i use the regular buds they fall out and i have to wrap the cord all the way around my ear to try and stop it pulling out. yeah im pretty cautious too so i only use one ear especially when im with someone then you can at least talk to them on the chair and listen in one ear

if that is true then your helmet probly is the wrong size for you, or your thinking of a different headphone,  a ski helmet shouldn't have that much room.

also if you have regular earbuds what also works is you tie your wire to ur ear strap (or chin strap)

but ya bud things are the all around the best choice if you are wearing a helmet

baggie beanie = no headphones.  Tight beanie = headphones.
