Recommend me some running headphones?

[bikertomm]

Hi all,

Recently started running. Without music..

Really need some half decent headphones that if possible wont fall out when running.

I know this is a bike forum but you all have the best responses

Anyone got any decent ones?

Looking to spend £1 - £25

Seen some creative EP630's..

I think really I'd prefer the over the head type headphones but not sure if this is a good idea. Have seen a few runners use these, I'm no 'Dr.Dre' faggot though.

I will settle for 'in ear' type,

Cheers

+1 for the CX300s, I use them when I run and they work fine. Sound great too!

MOST importantly if you're running though is get some Comply foam tips for them, T400 I believe it is for the Soundmagics:

Bit over budget but these are good, and this is a good price compared to the £40.00 bargain price I found not so long ago.

Smart remote lets you take hands free calls if music is on your phone.

Saying that, Bandit Boy has a point, they are only being used on MP3/4 devices (usually).

I just started running too and found JVC gummies from Asda, Argos or loads of other places do the job fine for about a £5.

I have difficulty with the fit of 'in ear' types at the best of times but especially when exercising.

Consequently I like something like these;

In your price range and I like the way they fit. Can't vouch for sound quality as can't say I'm pro enough to notice when just using them out running.

What a load of horse shit.

I used to run, stopped because I found it incredibly painful on my knees. Went for Gait Analyisis, bought a pair of £130 trainers which actually fitted my feet properly and sorted my foot placement.

Now instead of running 3k and giving up because of the stabbing pains in my knees I can run 10k non stop. Which ain't bad for a 5"10 16 stone bloater.

I also use decent earphones which don't hurt the inside of my ears, stay in when I run or go on the bike and deliver decent sound.

I assume you run barefoot down dirt tracks wearing potato sacks as a t shirt and shorts? Or do you make yourself comfortable? What's wrong with spending a bit more cash to make yourself more comfortable in order to make it enjoyable and more likely to continue exercising?

More likely you're a jealous little pauper.

People who say any old £3 headphones are fine obviously haven't tried good headphones, or their hearing isn't good enough to hear the difference. I used to think the Samsung ones that came with my phone were awesome, then I bought the SoundMagics and was amazed at just how much better they are. Then I tried my mates Sennheisers at work and now wish I'd spent more!

I've tried them all, and they all fall out. I ended up with jaybirds bluebuds x - the wing part keeps it in the ear. They are awesome, and no lead to your phone/ipod (uses bluetooth).

Alternatively, get some that go over your head - i.e. the traditional stlye.

Or, like I said, get Comply tips to go on the in-ear buds.

I use those, with the over ear hooks. They have decent sound quality, are comfortable, and are blootooth so no pesky wires to your phone/mp3 player.

Vsonic GR06

Chinese make, but are known by audiophiles as a really good pair of earphones for the price

Also come with those little rubber clip things so ideal for running
