Are these good for running?

yes, but they only lasted a few months and then the wires at the phone plug end wore out and now the sound cuts in and out. I did like them until that happened.

I don't know if they're considered running socks as they aren't heavily padded. I use them for walking 3-5 miles and they work great! My running socks are thicker for more cushion during the run, but if you don't feel the need for extra padding then these would work just fine.

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.

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 haven't used them for running, but they have a fairly secure fit, so they should.

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.

I agree with Keith. I'm using them right now, these things are in my ears all the time. I'm not sure they'd be great for running, unless they were under a shirt, but for lifting they're fine. If you're up for the investment, I'd recommend these to anybody and everybody.

I wouldn't recommend this for running. Though the earphones itself create a good seal on your canals, the breaks from the cords to the earphones itself might allow water to seep in. Although if you think about it, these are used as monitors, so hypothetically, they CAN be used for running.

You'll be fine running with them. I haven't had a problem with them yet. Really can't recommend these enough.

Not very good for running. They will slip off easily and will be a little heavy. I wouldn't recommend it

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.

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.

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.

Actually I would not recommend these for runners. I would recommend the Klipsch X10s instead. These fit deepand comfortably into the ear and sound better than Bowers $ Wilkins

Good question I'm not a runner so I'm not sure. They are good headsets. Have to keep them charged.

They are excellent for running. They do not move at all. But if you lift weights on a bench the behind the head style may not work. Oh yes they sound excellent.

Yes, you can wear them. They are perfect for running whether male or female
