Has anyone used these while running? I'd like to know if they are comfortable and durable enough while you run?

My husband uses them while on the treadmill. He seems pleased with them. (I don't run so I can only give you second hand knowledge.)

Yes they work well for running as they are light and compact with a fairly thick cord that doesnt tangle.

If you r real sweaty, they might move around a bit. I use mine when mowing on riding or with push mower. I do like the way they block (not totally) sound from engine. I can't wear the in-the-ear phones do to piercing.

Hi, I guess they are suitable for running. They come with various sizes of earplugs, and you can fix them around your ears. If they stay in place while swimming, I think they will stay in place while running, too.

Yes, they work well for running. I've had the new S9 HD for 2 mths now and I run several times a week with no problems with reception or shorting from sweat. You can wear them on your hip (= very good reception (music and phone)with little to no covering or major obstruction)) or on your arm with an armband (best reception, music and phone). I've found they work VERY well for running.

I don't know if these are good for running. If you do get these make sure to use high socks because the material of the ankle weights may remove some skin, lol. It's a little coarse. But I have the 10 lb weights even when I walk with them on I can feel it wanting to scrape my skin. Maybe another one with a wider Velcro strap that can hold it more secure. Be careful with running with ankle weights as it may not be good for your knees. Hope this helps, good luck

I bought these specifically for running and they work great. I like that there is a drawstring so I don't have to worry about them falling down while running.

I recently purchased these for my husband while he goes running. He loves them, and he hasn't had one problem with them quitting on him or anything because they got sweaty.

Scott, Although not conceived as a "sports" model, I wear these phones while exercising often. I have worn them hiking steep mountain trails (just returned today from Banff, Canada), spinning, kayak camping ... you name it! I have sweat with them on and even hiked in the rain with them on. No damage to the headphones. Mine fit tight in my ears without behind the ear supports. I have never had them fall out (except when the cord is snagged on a tree branch). If they fit you as well as me they should work well during exercise. BTW - The audio reproduction is outstanding.

I use them for running. I ran a trail 1/2 marathon in them last year in icy conditions and they worked great. Very good on ice and hardpack snow. In deep, soft snow they don't help much.

They are excellent for running. They do not move at all. But if you lift weights on a bench the behind the head style may not work. Oh yes they sound excellent.

I found them too big for running. They also wouldn't stay in my head for running. Maybe for weight training. I prefer in ear for working out. If I were to go with other type of headphones I think I would use over the ear for working out rather than on ear. I hope this helps.

I think they would be excellent for running. The silicone grippers do a great job of keeping them in place.

I had issues with their durability. They fell apart after 2 weeks. Hope that helps.

Yes, I feel they are durable. The cable is a bit less flexible than others, but most of my other earphones fail at the cable, either at the connection or the insulation, these have not done that. Also, I noticed my pair had a short break-in period.

I usually have the same problem, but these ones work great!! stay in my ears. even when I accidentally tug on the cord a bit, they usually stay in. My favorite headphones for running I ever have had!

I have run anywhere from 1-4 miles at a time with them and had no issue. They're a great buy.

Excellent for running. They appear uneffected by sweat. They fit really snuggly too so that they dont fall out. The blue tooth range to the device you are connecting appears to depend on the power output of your device rather than the ear buds. A tablet computer will connect and stay connected better than a smart phone. But overall these are great for physical sports.

Yes, they are great for running. The sound is perfect. My solitary complaint is that they are a bit too bulky for my ears to hold up. Otherwise they are great
