Customer Review: Excellent Sports Headphones
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my 3rd week running with these headphones.
Not once have I had these budge even the tiniest amount while I'm running. They're comfortable enough that I could wear them all day. Not once have they crackled due to sweat getting in the ear piece.
The fold down mechanism is simple to use and they store in my pocket along with my mp3 player when I'm done running.
The cord is long enough that it reachs down to my waist (where my mp3 player is connected via a belt clip) with around 5 inches of slack and I'm 6'4". You might want to use something to tie off the slack if you're shorter than that.
Currently, I'm just seeing how long these last now. But from my experience, so far, I'd recommend them to anyone that needed good sports headphones.
Customer Review: Old model is the best!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had 2 pairs of these headphones over the years. By that, I mean over the past 6 years! I used my first pair for the longest while and they provided incredible sound quality, excellent bass, and terrific durability. However, I lost those and was forced to go buy another pair about 3 years ago. Same great design, sound, and durability. In fact, the sound on the right ear just went out on that pair which I have used endlessly at the gym and running, but alas, I found my original pair sitting in the attic! Still sound awesome even after being up in the hot and cold weather for the last 3 years!
Sorry for all those who have bought the new cheap design. I was actually looking to buy these headphones again just for a backup but I guess I will be looking elsewhere.
Customer Review: Great Light weight headset
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a little reluctant to buy this updated foldable headset after seeing the reviews about how easily they break but I really needed some for working out. I hate ear buds - they fall out and it is hard to get good sound if they aren't in just right. These stay on my head very well throughout my work out including jogging and weight lifting. The sound is surprisingly good for such a light weight headset. I have had these for over 6 months of daily use now and they have held up just fine. Actually my old pairs of folding headsets were frustrating because the sliding metal they used in the folding mechanism would always come out and was hard to replace. I'm going to get aqnother pair for a backup but I've aleady gotten my money's worht out of the ones I have.Customer Review: Exactly what I was looking for
Summary: 5 Stars
These headphones are great for something lightweight and weather resistant. I bought an iPod and simply cannot wear the ear buds they come with--they fall out of my ears even if I am being perfectly still. But I wanted something to be able to wear around no matter what I was doing--even if I decided to, *gasp*, exercise.
So far I have worn these headphones in a lot of situations including shoveling the sidewalk during a snow storm. The do a pretty good job of staying in place and have no issue with moisture.
My only complaint, and it is minor, is that since there isn't any padding on them they can create some pressure on your ears. But by shifting their position just a bit on your head you can alleviate that.
Customer Review: works for running
Summary: 5 Stars
The earphones that came with my iPod Nano were just falling out too much so I bought these. They work just fine for running and I have no complaints. I've been using them for a couple weeks, running five times a week, up to four miles. Due to the cold weather I've been putting a knit cap over the earphones, but they seem secure without the cap as well. Not sure about them breaking where they fold--I never fold them, as I just use them for running. I have jerked the wire hard a couple times while running, and while one of the speakers pulls out of my ear, they haven't broken yet. They sit comfortably in my ears and have decent sound while I'm running. All I could ask for in headphones for running, so I can recommend them.
