Are these good for running?

the cord is a tad short so if you run the chord up the back of your shirt like I do, and you are tall, like I am, you might find they pull out of your ears. They also are not as secure in your ears as other headsets. However, it is difficult to find better for the price!

Yes, these will stay in your ears much better than regular headphones. I bought these headphones just for physical activities and they haven't slipped out yes. They also sound great.

Yes, they are. I would recommend using this for exercising. Not very comfortable to wear for casual use.

No. They are good for nothing as both pairs that I purchased only worked for a week.

Travelling yes, running, though I have never tried, from what I can see by the design, I doubt they would fair well for running. They aren't the most snug fit. At least on my head. I mean they are perfect for normal walking but I am willing to bet you would probably have to stop to adjust them from time to time if you were running with them on. For me, they just don't feel like they would stay in place if I ran with them.

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.

Yes, I've worn them running, but prefer not to. Using in-ear buds while running results in a lot of noise from the cable jostling around.

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.

Yes, they are light enough. I am a pitcher in senior softball and I wear them when pitching and sometimes I leave them on when I bat. They do not impede my running.

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.

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.

I don't really think they would be comfortable to run in. I thought about it, but decided not to because of their weight, and I also didn't want anything to happen to them. I'm not saying that they are heavy, but I would imagine they would be a bit cumbersome. But maybe that's just me - if you wouldn't mind something like this on your head when you run (I would mind), then you could probably do it. The cord is a bit long though, you would probably have to tie it around itself or something. They really are great headphones though. Hope this helps

I have seen other people using these for running/working out. These are very comfortable in your ears for long hours. As long you clean them after working out, you should be fine. These are built to last a long time.

Absolutely. This is my main concern with purchasing any pair of headphones. I have slippery sweaty ears so finding a good pair for running has always been a challenge for me, but I have had no issues with these. I'll definitely be buying another pair when the ones I currently have no longer work. I highly suggest them.

Yes, they are great. They stay in place and are comfortable for even the longest runs but remember running with any sound isolating earphones or headphones blocks out all surrounding noise which can be dangerous in cities and other areas where you should be alert.

I use them for yoga but i suppose they could be good for running too. They are super soft

I've gone running every day since I got them. They feel good and they should prevent any strains. They help keep your muscles warm which will help prevent strains

I use them for jogging all the time. They are more stable than the ear bud earphones I had. They may feel a little heavy and sweaty after you run for some time, but otherwise they're fine. I just ran a half marathon with these on my ears and had no issues whatsoever.

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!!

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.
