how is the fit for heavy sweaters?

I sweat a ton, more than anyone else has ever sweat. I'm a little over weight and I run many miles, in Atlanta, in the summer, with hills. I know sweat. These have an awesome fit, I never felt they would fall out of my ears. Sound was great. I loved them. I left them on a bench once, for like 15 seconds, and someone stole them. My only issue was with the mic, they don't have good noise cancellation, whenever on a call people would say I sounded like I was in an echo chamber.

Well shoot, I'll try sending them back for a replacement. Thanx! I never really expect companies to stand by their products these days. I'll post back what happens. Cheers!

They use a nano technology coating to protect the earbuds from sweat. If the coating fails, they offer a life Time guarantee for any sweat damage.

Bet you'll be happy you asked because I am a heavy sweater and I drowned my earphones a month ago. They broke cause of my sweat, so don't buy this one. I'm looking at the new Monster Freedom, but a little pricey. Good luck Carmen!

I think they work regardless of what you are wearing. I've worn mine with turtlenecks, light jackets, and once, when the wife and kids were out, in only a pair of briefs - Risky Business style. I say, give the heavy sweater a try!

I have sweat quite a bit with these but have had no issues. I've even brought them into saunas. The only thing that might happen is you'll create a "seal" in your ear with the earbud after your sweat gets into your ear. All I do is move them slightly to release the seal.

The right side of my earbuds can fall out on a long workout but these are the best non-bar style headphones that I've used for staying in. One solution is to use the ear hooks off a pair of Freedom Spirits along with the wings. These things will never fall off with both.

they eventually fail. Mine failed after 6months, I sent them back for new pair. New pair has now failed after another 6 months. Bluetooth headphones don't seem to mix with us heavy sweaters.

The fit is good, but the "sweat-resistant" technology doesn't cut it for heavy sweaters. I've had to replace this unit about 10 times as a result of sweat damage. As soon as my 1-year warranty expires, I'll be moving on to a different brand. Jaybird is based in a cool, dry climate in Utah, so I suspect they didn't really test it properly in a hot, humid climate. Oh well... at least their customer service is very good, and they are helpful when replacing them under the warranty.

This sweater runs a little smaller than the actual size, it's small on the waist and its fitted to the body, I would say if your a large, an extra Large size would fit perfectly.

I bought this for my husband, who strongly dislikes turtlenecks. He seems to be ok with the fit around his neck. He is a larger man, 6'4" and 220 lbs, he says it fits just fine.

It depends on the weight of the knits -size 9 to 11 for lightweights and sheer knits, 11 or 14 for medium-weight (normal t-shirt jersey), 14 to 16 for heavyweight (dense cotton sweater knit) and 16 to 18 for very heavy knits (thick winter woolens).

I normally wear Size 4, and bought an S size. It's oversized size S to accommodate regular clothes you wear underneath. Yes, you can wear a sweat shirt, or even heavy jacket, and jeans; I even wore ski pants underneath.

I would say get a size bigger than your usual, it's better if the sweater fits you big rather than smaller

I'm 5/4 145 I use the small, it's pretty tight so the medium sounds right for you.Marry Xmas and Happy New Year.

I'm 6'0, 185 and like my clothing fitted. I find the large to be bulky. I can fit a base layer, shirt, and down jacket underneath with a little too much room.

pretty much depends upon what you wear. If you are not layering a lot above the waist then it will fit snuggly.

It depends on what you wear. If it's a sweater or thick shirt it's not noticeable; if it's something light or tight it is.

the measurement should be close to the waistline, for heavy workout and lifting.

They fit very snug. This past winter when seeping with them on I found them a great comfort. I especially like the left one, being a knitter with an arthritic thumb and fore finger it keeps them somewhat stable. I think you will like them. Hope this has helped you.

They are pretty wide on the inside. Def ok for the heavier men like myself.

I'm 30 pounds heavier than you. I bought the medium and it's a little tight on me. You will probably be fine with the medium.

Yes, it is fine. Lay the sweater out as flat as you can and fold the sleeves on top of the sweater. In one day, all is dry- no turning needed. It's great!

Not without having to fold it. It fits my large sweaters just barely and I have to fold the sleeves over the body.

I'm 5'3 and got a regular medium and they were baggy where I could wear heavy stuff under and be baggy and comfortable. The length was a little long but perfect over ski boots. I'm 125 by the way
