I couldn't find the thread where someone was asking if you could replace the iPhone earbuds with the Apple In-Ear buds but I figured it out and it works!
The earphones that came with the iPhone were killing my ears after 20 minutes of use. My trusty Apple in-ear buds that I have had since around 2004 still work and are very comfortable for me so I decided to take the risk and swap them out!
I used this site to figure how to take apart the in-ear buds:
