Would these be good for working out/running?

Absolutely. I use these when I use weights and treadmils. They stay tight on your head. And not having a wire that gets caught in weights is a blessing,

Not heavy working out...they are not the most comfortable seating phones...they do the job..but I dint think I would recommend them for working out...jogging maybe...just maybe

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.

I wouldn't recommend these for gym use. They might stay put, but they might not if you are on a treadmill or moving too much. I also think the over the ear design would get sweaty on your ears.

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

Yes. I don't recommend them if you're planning to wear them while working out though. The microphone portion is not waterproof and sweat gets into it, causing it to force songs to skip or even try to call people.

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

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.

Only just now got around to seeing this! Man.No, these wouldn't be great for running. I mean, they're pretty lightweight, but they can fall off your ears relatively easily, especially with all the jostling. Earbuds are definitely better for that sort of thing.

The only thing holding me back from saying these are as good for running as they are for cycling is that they're designed to fit best in cycling positions. They fit best in that position but would probably do very well with running, otherwise

No - they were cheaply made & would not stand the test of running. Bose sports headphones (pricey but worth it) would.

My experience is that they're pretty good for the type of headphone they are: quite snug for this style. I find them too bulky and hot to consider ideal during a workout. They don't seem like they're designed to deal with sweat, etc., so the getting them wet with sweat kind of grosses me out too. For normal use I don't consider them too bulky or hot, but to workout I think I prefer an earbud style over these.

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!!

Yes. I bought these for my husband to use while working out. He loves them!

I wouldn't recommend these for working out. I like them a lot, but they don't fit sniping like sports headphones.

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!

Not at all! I run and workout with these in everyday and love them. If you place then properly, its even difficult to pull them out (like if the cord gets caught on something). If you run at all, I suggest these. Great fit and sound. I only have 20% hearing in my left side and these are the only headphones that have good enough sound for me.
