Stud Earrings You Can Actually Wear Every Day
A stud is the one piece of jewelry most people never take off — which is exactly why it should be the last piece that irritates your ears, tarnishes in the shower, or digs in while you sleep. Every pair in this collection is made from 18K gold-plated 316L stainless steel, so it is waterproof, sweatproof, tarnish-free and hypoallergenic. Shower in them, sleep in them, train in them.
Every Stud Style in One Place
- Classic gold studs — polished, round, instantly wearable. The pair you reach for without thinking.
- Pearl studs — set on the same waterproof stainless base, so they are the rare pearl earring that survives a shower.
- CZ studs — cubic zirconia cut for brilliant, clean sparkle at a fraction of the price of diamond.
- Flat back studs — a smooth flush backing instead of a post, for side sleepers and sensitive lobes.
- Tiny and small studs — 2–4mm pairs built for second, third and helix piercings.
- Star, heart, flower and celestial studs — the shape-driven pairs that make an ear stack look curated instead of random.
How to Choose Your Stud Size
As a rule of thumb: 2–3mm for a second or third lobe, 4–5mm for a first lobe or a helix, and 6mm and up when you want the stud to be the focal point. If you are building a stack, keep every stud within 2mm of the next one so the ear reads as deliberate rather than crowded. Post gauge on all of ours is 20G, which fits a standard ear piercing.
Studs That Play Well With Everything
Studs are the base layer. Build your stack upward with earring stacks, or add a snug close-fitting hoop with our huggie earrings and small hoop earrings. If you want to add edge without a new piercing, our ear cuffs clip over the cartilage for a conch or helix look. And because everything in this shop is waterproof and tarnish-free, you can mix our gold stud earrings with silver earrings in the same ear without worrying about one tone wearing faster than the other.
