The ear hooks make it possible to hang them on a shirt collar or something if you want to take them out for a bit. Typical buds you have to fish the case out of your pocket if you want to have a hope of not losing the bid. Ear hooks also make it easy to take them out of your ear. My hands and fingers are huge, taking most buds out is a pain for me.
