Looks like Bose have done the right thing after numerous complaints about the fit of their IE earphones and will send all existing owners an upgrade.

The upgrade consists of a new set of ear tips, an around the ear lanyard and a spring clip on the wire which should prevent the headphones falling out during active use (walking, breathing, etc.). After the 16th of March, existing users can order their free upgrade by calling 800-819-7032 with the replacement ear tips being sent straight away and the other goodies to follow in June.

In addition, the new headphones will appear in the shops from the 15th of March.
