Great headphones, but don't last long

 

I like everything about these headphones except that they don't last very long. For running headphones, they have excellent sound & are much more comfortable than in-ear models. I have run half-marathons with these & experienced no issues. The only...

Great for gym use

 

These are pretty normal neckband-style headphones, work great with no problems and the one thing that stands out as others have said, is the nylon cord/wire. It doesn't stick to your clothes and is especially long. Also has a bit of give in case the...

Hello All, I had an older model of this headphones and I loved them. This ones are the same as my old model and until it will pass the test of time, I love them as my old model. If something will happen to them, I will update this review.

Fantastic

 

Ive went through a lot of headphones trying to find the right fit for when I run. The iPod ones don't stay in my ear and neither did other earbuds. These have a nice snug feel to them but aren't uncomfortable because of the nice padding that's around...
