Any good for running or working out?

Not really. The earpieces (+volume control) are too heavy and keep pulling out. There's a little clip to attach the headphones to your clothing but even that is not very secure.

I agree with Keith. I'm using them right now, these things are in my ears all the time. I'm not sure they'd be great for running, unless they were under a shirt, but for lifting they're fine. If you're up for the investment, I'd recommend these to anybody and everybody.

No. They are not even good for walking unless if you have a buttoned shirt (the cord clip is made for that)I recommend cx 685 . There isin't actually a huge sound difference.

Yes. These ear phones are comfortable, adjustable, and a superior sound source. But remember, you are paying a premium because these phones produce such a quality sound field ideal for serious listening. Keith Alan Deutsch

Works well for me. I don't sweat profusely. I use for running long and short distances.

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!!

Absolutely, yes! I have bought three pairs of so called "sports headphones" and none of them worked for my runs or workouts. They either kept falling out of my ears or they would work loose so they were just hanging on my ears - at which point I could still hear the music but no bass - so I felt that I was wasting all of my money trying to buy headphones I couldn't use. And then I got these and all my problems were solved. They sound great and are light, comfortable and snug. Highly recommened.

Hi John, I bought these mainly for TV viewing when my wife wants quiet, the volume control was a big plus for me. They have good sound, great noise cancellation, but are pretty bulky. They are fine for working out , including rowing and elliptical, and lifting. I think they would be uncomfortable to run with, and probably would slosh around. Although they do have a snug yet comfortable fit. Hope this helps. Steve

They are indeed good headphones for listening and travelling, but I would not recommend them for running.

I've spent a couple of hours searching the net looking for durable, comfortable headphones for running, and, for what it's worth, I'm about to order these (Sennheiser PX100). On other sites I've found at least two reviews from runners who had used them and were happy with them. One reviewer (not a runner) said they were not very comfortable, but you never know whether they will affect you the same way.

Not really; they are more for swimming. There are a lot of designs that would be better for running; I like the over the ear design for running; I have Motorola sport Bluetooth headphones and the design is great for staying in but they don't get very loud volume which can be annoying.

Absolutely! Just adjust to get a good fit, and you'll be ready to go. The cord is a bit rigid, which could be a little annoying for gym use, but running would work!

After having them for a while, they are very good for running. But the trick is to have the stabilization tab set for your ears. I always have to readjust them for the perfect fit. As a matter of fact I just got through cutting grass and sweated pretty good. No problem with them staying in my ears. If you get them once you and play with them a while you will figure out what angle to put the stabilizer in for the perfect fit. You will also know when you got a good fit because they sound awsome! They are best I have had so far. I have LG730 and they always have a tendency to fall out after sweating, so I stopped wearing them for workouts. I think these are a good buy.

You can but not recommended. I would suggest the powerbeats wireless headphones for running.

Too bulky. You'd want something lighter. Great sound just not good for running.

I use them for running and hiking. Compression good. Feel great and wash & dry quickly.

These should work for you. I use them while I run and I'm able to hear, as long as I don't crank up the volume too loud.

Better top stick with the sport model or buy a pair of Phillips ActionFit earhook headphones. Less expensive, and if you break them while running, you don't have to worry about breaking these. Personally, I haven't found that they fit well enough in my ear to run with, but I do like the sound accuracy. These are more for the listening experience than running in.
