Is this headphone good to use at the gym?

Its alright. I find the cord length a bit annoying when lifting weights. But when running and doing cardio they are great and stay put on your head. I don't recommend these headphones if you're planning on doing sit-ups or pushups, they tend to slip, bit it mainly depends on your head/hair (bald, conditioned hair, etc.)...Oh yeah, after having mines for about 1 year. The plastic construction of these cans, make this hollow sound when running. Its hard to describe

I use them when I go for walks at the park and they are perfect, but, I believe that depending on what type of activity you are doing at the gym. I believe that they would not work very well in a activity where your head is moving all the time, the headphone would tend move.

Can't be sure. I use the headphones in a somewhat sound isolation booth while playing drums in an orchestra. With the orchestra music coming in on the headphones, volume controlled, I can barely hear my drum "licks".

I think it is probably a little too bulky and not durable enough for the gym.

Since they are over ear and on the large side, they may move around with activities, like running on a treadmill. There are more portable options out there, like in-canal earbuds.

I have VERY sensitive ears so you asked the right person. I think you'll be fine. I wear them for two hours at the gym and sometimes I forget to remove them and wear them out to the car! I love these headphones especially for the price :-)

I wouldn't recommend it. They make my head warm when I'm sitting at the office using them. Also, the material may soak up sweat and lead to a foul odor after a period of time. I would get a good pair of quality athletic ear buds for the gym.

Absolutely. The frequency response, even at low levels, is pretty amazing for this price level. I can't justify paying more for any headphone unless you're an extremely discriminating audiophile using high end equipment. They're just great little headphones.

I did use them on treadmill and other indoor gym activities...they are effective but only concern i had the leather getting drenched in sweat and odour remains in the sponge underneath. So I stopped using them in gym...but I love these headphones.

No they are NOT suitable for workouts. I went through two of these headphones each died from sweat and moisture. They would've been perfect if it was waterproof.

The cord is soft but a bit flimsy in my opinion and so you need some handling care. Looping over the ears tend to drop off but this can be over come by securing more the split-wire under the chin (you may feel slight discomfort in the beginning and will get use to it). So if you're at average working out activities, it's should be OK. Noise isolation is good (unless you're in a disco/dance floor). I hope my humble opinion helps you.

No I have not experience any problems using it in the gym. I actually love using it at the gym. I used it for Urbanathron which is a 11 miles race with obstacles. However, I would try not to use them so much at the gym. I don't want anything bad happen to them although accident can happen. It is a very expensive earphone. To answer your question again, I don't have any trouble using it in the gym or on a 11 miles race but I would be careful.

Although I am alittle confused how your question is stated here, I will go ahead and elaborate on the sound quality, and the fit size. The sound quality was wonderful and like no other headphones Ive ever had. I wish that the size was alittle tighter. I use the headphone to workout in and run, gets a little frustrating to readjust the headphone. The headphone are cheap, and broke in pieces when it fell out of my hands and onto the concrete floor

I would say yes. I use it to watch movies, listen to music, check audio when I'm recording on professional equipment, and edit my videos. The sound quality is always excellent. These are very versatile and well-priced headphones!

Kevin. I use this for working out and I honestly can't think of better headphones. Now I am a fit guy but sweat like a beast. I play soccer with them on and they never ever come off. Sounds quality is a solid 8-9 out of 10. Comfort is 9. But the fact that they never fall out specially for guys that sweat makes these a must buy By the way I have used Bose and beats. Sound is highly comparable to Bose and same as beat

Sean I'm really not sure of the question. I highly recommend these headphones . I use them every day running .and just toss them in my gym bag when I'm done

I use it while doing all sorts of exercises. Bench press, back squats (with barbell on my shoulders), crunches etc. I've had no problem whatsoever with using the headphones during any exercise.

These really aren't the best headphones for that. Not to mention they shouldn't be used outside if you want to keep them working.Their fluffy cloth that pads the headphones will probably make you sweat more. For practice you need something that is less fluffy and more leather/plasticy like.

I think the headphones is no sweat proof.But I don't think you can get it wet while you exercise.And it fix well, so it suit you.

Honestly, I wouldn't get them. I did not find them comfortable in the gym. I returned mine and got a Sony.

This is not suitable for gym because it drops quickly while running. S2 is made by metal so it is heavy to carry. For gym, you should prefer in ears like having extra plastic holder. Bose is good for gym and some sennheiser models are also OK
