Good for Walking? Anybody else have this problem?

Yes, the two wires from the buds (as opposed to the mated wires) transmit any sound resulting from movement directly to the buds and your ears. I like the sounds of these but I find them not well suited for listening while moving e.g., exercising, walking. Not sure if there is a way to improve the isolation.

Does not seem uneven to me. There is a rocking type motion that comes with walking with the boot on. It may feel unusual at first, but I quickly adjusted to the rocking motion.

Sorry, Miki, have just checked my pair & don't find that problem. Perhaps it's a defect in your pair.

i have two winnie walkers and i find that i have to keep balance by how i walk. since i lean forward because of my back the walker stays pretty much in balance for me.DID YOU NOT GET A PAMPHLET WITH YOUR WALKER? I WOULD CALL THE MANUFACTURE TO GET THE INFO YOU NEED.

I use mine for walking but I think they would be just fine for running. You can get the low padding ones to avoid bulk.

I live in the city and stick to sidewalks, avoiding rough terrain. Pavements present no problem. The walker moves easily over slight irregularities in the pavement. This is the second HUGO I own. I walk about three miles daily. it is helping to maintain my vitality.

I have found that they slowly slip out if i am jogging. If I am just lifting they remained in place. I also make sure to wipe any sweat off after use to prevent issues.

Seems good when running or walking fast. I counted steps casually walking and it skipped now and then

I have had good experience with the battery.... It lasts me a week or more and I use it about an hour or more per day during my daily walk. Regarding the 'choppy' audio... Initially I noticed a little of that, but moved my iPhone (source of the music I was listening to) to a different pocket and it resolved that issue. Sometimes there is a little "blip" when you are walking rapidly, but has not been bothersome to me.

Ya I had the same problem for a while but they DO get better with time. I think it was just a matter of breaking them in. I suggest wearing them for activities like workouts and such for a while. It took about 2 weeks for them to get better for me but don't quote that time frame. Hope this helps!

I had the same problem until I figured out you have to make sure both soft straps are around the legs as well as the thin straps are on each side and then tighten it securely. I have 3 dogs and each one has one. Won't go for a walk without them.

Travelling yes, running, though I have never tried, from what I can see by the design, I doubt they would fair well for running. They aren't the most snug fit. At least on my head. I mean they are perfect for normal walking but I am willing to bet you would probably have to stop to adjust them from time to time if you were running with them on. For me, they just don't feel like they would stay in place if I ran with them.

get the yaktrax walking or pro. i think the walking is the cheapest too and they are more meant for hiking.

I've had the same issues, so I took my to my neighborhood shoe maker. Old timer, who fixed it with ease. better than it was before. Did try local sporting good stores to no avail. Hope this help you.

I do believe the movements with your legs is still the same. Make sure there not to big, they may dig into the top of your shoe / foot.

I clipped mine to the waist or a pocket of my pants. It fell off 5 times and the last time I lost it for good while hiking. :-( I never had the right kind of shoes to clip it to my shoes - the top of my clogs were too thick for the clip and on work shoes it just looked odd. I like the tracker but had a hard timing keeping it on.
