Are these good for Running? I typically run 8+ miles at a time can they handle that? And is the sound quality good?

I find they tend to wiggle out a little bit. They dont fall out, but they do not stay snuggled in tight and require constant adjustment. Sou d quality is moderate considering one is not an audiophile.

These hold on pretty well, I would say there is a good chance they will stay on during a run, but the sound quality is really terrible. No bass, some high-pitched sounds in music are... well head splitting. If you want cheap running earphones these would work just fine but don't count on them sounding very good.

I can certainly attest to their comfort and durability - I run 25-35 miles a week and they work great for me...I've worn them up to 20 miles during my last marathon training plan and they don't get annoying. I think they sound fine, but I listen to my music really low so I may not be the best judge there!

The sound quality to me is great. I have used them during exercise sessions or 3 to 6 mile hikes but not running.

Yes, good for running. Sound quality is just ok. Good ear buds for the price.

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.

If you run like a 70 year old lady then yeah you can wear these. If you want to get sweat all up in every little part of these semi cheap headphones go for it. I'd recommend the Shure E2's for running. I run about 8 miles every two days and they hold up to the torrents of sweat I put out. N.

I've used them for music basically, but from my perspective they will be great for movies since the sounds are crisp clear. Just don't expect tons of bass since they are designed for real sound (not like Beats). These make audible things you don't hear with cheap headphones!!

id go with a different pair they sound good but fall out easy if this is your price range theres something by sennheiser thats pretty good they are made for running because they have a hook for your ear

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.

These worked really well for me. I was putting in long miles - 10-20 mile runs, and never had any problems!

They sound great. Good rendering across the range. There is a little bit of cable thumping.IMO the best part is the quality of the sound with the excellent fit in the ear. Great for workout, although noise isolation might not be safe for certain sports activities.

I think they would be good for running but unfortunately shortly after I purchased them, they stopped working. Total disappointment.

I haven't worn them for running but with the foam tips they really stay put. You can also wear them over your ears for a more secure fit. That being said these are not specifically designed for exercising so I don't know how they handle sweat. They sound fantastic though so I'd say it's worth a try.

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

They work well for running but not at high speeds. I've used it on my bike and get a lot of wind noise that drowns out the music. They work at the gym but not as well as the type that are earbuds.

My only problem with them is too little bass. They are good for workouts because they stay put and reduce background noise. My Apple earbuds have better bass.

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.

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.

It would work great for jogging. Only remember that if your volume is turned up too high it might pose a safety risk because if you have to cross a street, for example, you might not hear a car approaching. Also, the headphones are pretty good.

I use them with my laptop and iPod and find the sound quality is good (I am not an audiophile). My concern is that they weigh over 8oz. which I find gets heavy over time, so I have switched to a smaller, lighter, on-the-ear pair.
