Apple wins four Design Patents for EarPod / AirPod Ear Hook Tips
Late Friday the Hong Kong Patent and Trademark Office published four design patents for Apple regarding Ear / wireless AirPod tips. I've seen this style of AirPod tip online from EarBuddyz and others but not from Apple. Will Apple make these available soon, as in sometime next week?
Unlike "patent applications," design patents that are published by the U.S. or any foreign Patent and Trademark Office don't reveal pertinent information about a particular design. All we get are simple patent figures as noted below.

One example of this style of tips is shown below from AliExpress and another could be found over at EarBuddyz.
