Earbud recommendations

I have a pair of Bose Sound sport that I have been using for a few years, and while the audio quality is fine there is an absolute insane amount of wind-noise when using them outside. If there's anything more that a light breeze, I have to crank the volume to hear my podcasts or music...and forget about using them on the bike!

What are some good alternatives that retain the audio quality, but reduce the wind noise and resist weather impact? On/over-ear headphones are not a solution for me, they're all way too bulky for running. Bone conducting ones like Shockz seem flat when listening to them

I am using the Sennheiser True wireless 3's right now and I love them. They have noise reduction mode, sound great, are ipx-something resistant (sweat for sure, light rain) and fit snuggly (for me)
- Looks like they have completely round rubber fittings, those always fit my ears really bad unfortunately, resulting in terrible audio quality. I've only ever been able to get good fits with oval rubber fittings, which is why I've stuck with bose for years now. But the wind noise is getting too annoying with the ones i use now, and they don't seem to have a sports-oriented model other than what i already have unfortunately.
  
  They also have this outer “wing” as well. Check some reviews. I’ve owned wf-1000xm3s, jabra elite 75t’s and these and these fit the best BY FAR
