How well will these stand up to heavy exercise / sweat?

I'm in the gym about 6 days/week doing weights and 45 min. cardio sessions, and they've held up pretty well. I'm a heavy sweater and haven't had any problems. I've had them about a month.

I understand your concern in regards to getting hot, but I believe you should be fine with these. I ran a half marathon in these and never got over-heated.

They may retain a small amount of water. The arch is solid and the gel parts won't but the sole on top where your foot rests may. I never had a problem with them retaining sweat after a very long mountain run and in 105+ heat I sweat heavy haha. Hope that helps.

They seem pretty durable to me. I'd say they'd hold up. They don't work very well for inside use, just an FYI

That is precisely what I use them for, and they have held up quite well. Good luck and happy training :)

They stay well and are sweat proof like the sports model. The problem I had was my ear canal cartilages would get sore after prolonged use unfortunately. Most people don't seem to be having that issue though.

I think you should be fine. I have four pair that go from office to trail sixteen hours a day and after a year have held up great. If the carpet is that bad then you might have to go heavier than a 7oz material

I sweat from head to toe during my daily workout and these are drenched but still holding on to my ankles. So yes they do handle a heavy soaking each day, although I haven't gone swimming or participated in actual water exercise wesring them.

I lift pretty heavy for my weight and sweat profusely. They work well for all my lifting and do not get soaked during my 2 hr lifting/cardio cycle. The wrist support helps a lot for the heavier lifts. Hope this helps.

Depends on the frequency of use. They're really light weight, so if you're looking for excersize they'll be a little lacking. Try getting a heavier set.

I wear them in many conditions (tough workouts and long airplane trips of 20+ hours) and they don't roll. They stay put and after many washing and wearings are maintaining condition.

Sweat resistant? I've seen no problem with them when I work out. I do some pretty intense workouts too. Just don't let them get yanked out of your ear. Had to glue mine back together! Hahaaa

I sweat heavily and haven't had a problem with mine. Been using them for several years - lost one set - the only issue I had was with ear wax but was not hard to fix.

I use mine for cardio (DDR and running) and they stay on just fine. The only issue is that when you sweat a lot you have to dry your ears but other than that I love them. For weight lifting they also work fine. The only issue there would be when you lay down flat such as for doing bench press. They kinda move a bit so you have to fix them.

Not at all. When you put them on correctly they stay in place no matter how rigorous your workout is. Put it this way.. I wear them when playing basketball, which involves sprinting and jumping and bumping into other players. You will not be disappointed with these.

No they won't! Ultimately, that's what killed both pairs that I had. And a comment response from the company stated back to me that they were designed for sport use, but excessive sweat would damage them........and that's what happened. So far, the only headphones to stand the test of time for my excessive running/ sweating has been my apple ear pods.
