Are they any good for going on runs?

The kahtoola microspikes would only be good for a run on snow packed areas. If there is bare concrete it would not be pleasant.

Not too sure about this. They provide good traction, but maybe too good for running. Because they dig in so much, you really have to concentrate on picking your feet up. I would consult with a running expert.

I am not a runner. The spikes are about one half inch long and I would not run in them.

They are adequate for running. However they are not half as durable as Sennheiser promises. Mine fell apart within a year, while I did not train that much. Instead I'd recommend Sony MDR-W08L. They wear definitely as good, don't move around. I wear them for over a year, 6-days a week training in very warm sweaty weather conditions. When I purchased them they were around $9, so I bought 6. One broke. To my surprise the price has suddenly gone up to $39,- However, I do not recommend the Sennheiser because of durability. It was no bad luck it fell apart. The design is definitely not durable. If it rusts everywhere and the rubber pieces fall apart then the design is flawed. They are adequate for running.

I wouldnt recommend them for running. The protective earshell, although very comfortable, would not do well against perspiration. Better keep them indoors. The sound quality is amazing though -especially considering the price- and I'd recommend them for listening to music at home.

Probably. I think the coils might be a little uncomfortable since your probably going to feel them through a running shoe. Id look for one with a lower profile made for running

I personally bought them for mountain biking, they are light, breathable and have good knuckle protection. They do run a bit small so I recommend get them one size up; enjoy the ride.

Not very good for running. They will slip off easily and will be a little heavy. I wouldn't recommend it

I use them in the gym and on the stair climber machine. They are fine. Not sure about running but would think they would work ok.

They have a pretty snug fit, so I bet they would be fine for running, although I would personally rather run in ear buds. A plus to running in these is the single cord.

I occasionally use these to work out. They are decent if you want to use them for weight lifting or something else where you aren't moving very fast. I run in them occasionally but they do fall out a lot once I start to sweat.

I understand your concern in regards to getting hot, but I believe you should be fine with these. I ran a half marathon in these and never got over-heated.

Hey Kevin, they are pretty good for running as I know this from experience. The ear cushion is soft, so it won't rub your ears roughly. Their only downfall, I think, when it comes to fitness is that they may make you ears sweat a little because of the material the cushion is made of. But I will deal with that part because of how soft the cushion is. Other than that, they are A1 in my book!!

No. They don't provide enough cushioning for running long distances but are excellent for walking on all types of terrain.

Depends on what your gonna do with them. Jog? No I would not advise that. I do know a good pair for jogging. But these are decently tight, but I'm female and have a small head.

These are amazing for running. I use them everyday and have no issues. I am sure some people may need the over the ear clips, which were included in both mine and the wife's but we did not. I have recommended to several people now.

Honestly I mean I guess it would depend what you were doing in them. I run in them and love them and they have awesome sound. Now would I use them during my martial arts and stuff? Not likely but if you wanna run I don't think I have ever had a pair of s11's fall off so I would recommend and I'm not running usually on just flat ground it could be any terrain so I hope that helps ya out.

I would not think they would hold up for running. I only used them for walking and snowblowing the drive. They broke after one season. Worked really well-but I will not pay that much for such a short span of time again.

Yes they work very well. I would use this product for track , running, swimming.
