I want a good pair of noise canceling headphones for when I bowl in a league. Are they good for if you are bowling/ excersizing?

These aren't noise cancelling headphones. They are, however, good for keeping out sound regardless.

I don't think so. The cord is very long and might get tangled when bowling. They do fit snug and don't easily slip off. If I'm listening to music they do a great job of keeping all other sound blocked and sound doesn't 'leak' so others can't hear what I'm listening too.

I use these to run and when I run, I sweat. A lot! They stay in place, don't move around. Will they drown out your lawnmower? Probably. My concern when I run with them is that I cannot hear anything other than my music. This includes traffic, dogs, and an occasional--lawn mower! You should be ok. I hope this helps.

I don't use my headphones for exercise. I actually use them for general use. These are the best headphones I have ever used that are comfortable and compatible with my hearing aids.

When music is playing at reasonable volume, they're pretty good at blocking background noise, but not perfect. If you're just wearing them over your ears without input, the noise cancellation is more of a soft noise muffling than anything else. I wouldn't call them "noise-cancelling" so much as "reduces extraneous background noise so you can focus on what's playing".

These really aren't the best headphones for that. Not to mention they shouldn't be used outside if you want to keep them working.Their fluffy cloth that pads the headphones will probably make you sweat more. For practice you need something that is less fluffy and more leather/plasticy like.

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.

They work well for running but not at high speeds. I've used it on my bike and get a lot of wind noise that drowns out the music. They work at the gym but not as well as the type that are earbuds.

I wouldn't recommend it. They make my head warm when I'm sitting at the office using them. Also, the material may soak up sweat and lead to a foul odor after a period of time. I would get a good pair of quality athletic ear buds for the gym.

I would say yes but not for exercising. The are fairly large and they make you sweat of you are exercising around your head. I prefer smaller buds for that. They sound excellent and are really comfortable, just not sure what on you go means to you.

Not really noise cancelling. They are good and my son loves the pair I bought him....and they do cancel out a fair amount of noise but I am not sure they would be sold on that aspect.

The noise cancelling is pretty good. I have a roommate who plays drums and vibraphone, and he's usually pretty loud. When I put them on and play some music, I can't hear him practice. They're really good especially for the price, highly recommended.

I use these headphones for the exact same reason. They don't completely cancel out the noise but they reduce it enough that the noise isn't bothersome any more. Keep in mind that these are not technically noise-canceling headphones, but they are instead noise-reducing headphones which do a great job. These headphones are, in fact, better than the -canceling ones for this kind of situation.

Well, I would say if you want complete noise cancellation go with BOSE, but these do a pretty good job if you already have something playing, it's really hard to hear anything outside of your headset.

I guess you mean the sound isolation, it doesn't has noise cancelling but the soft cushions are covering your ears so well that it isolate the external noise very well. If you play in a club, I personally like to hear the music playing as well. The 3.5 Watt is also phenomenal, it so loud and clean that it makes it a lot easier to mix. I haven't found a better set of headphones so far and I had a few :-) . I have always looked around to get the best, the sound is just so real. You won't regret it for a moment. And did I mention that they are ultra light and have a massive ridged feel.

These were bought as a gift and the recipient said the sound was awesome and the plugs block out noise very well. If you are active, you may have a problem with the plugs staying in your ears, depending on the sport or exercise you are doing..

I am not a race fan, but seems to me that Nascar is already REALLY loud. These will help with hearing quiet background noise. Such as subtile wildlife noises on a quiet night. You may be looking for noise canceling headphones - that is NOT what these do. However the earphones with the electronic in the off position may help muffle the noise to some degree.

I wear them when riding my mower and when using the leaf blower. Some noise comes through, but I can still hear my music fine. They are bulkier than noise canceling but comfortable. For the price they are worth trying for flight travel. Hope this helps.
