Unfortunately not for me and my strange ears. So far I have no in-ear earphones found that not the first yawn or nod as dissolves out of the ear canal, the complete bass and partly the middle area are no longer heard. Actually, these things have indeed a good sound if they fall out only not permanently! This is what then leads to that it feels as if you listen to others when someone with unclosed headphones. Over the ear seem therefore not to be the solution for me apparently.
