Can you hear around these headphones for adequate awareness while running near the street?

You'd definitely hear a horn honking, but beyond that, it's going to depend on how loud you play your music. If it helps, they don't completely block out all noise. If you were to have them in your ears but not playing anything through them, you'd still hear outside noises, if a little muffled.

I have had no problem hearing audio while on my bike riding next to traffic. The ear buds are not completely isolating, but do a decent job.

Hi, You would probably need to have them set to maximum volume, they do not by their nature aim at noise cancellation, I did manage to hold a conversation on my bike in traffic but noisy vehicles do cause problems. A noisy vehicle does not sound like an ideal use of these headphones, as the idea is to allow you notice other noise.

Glad to help...People often see to be able to tell when I am using the headphones....when in low to med noise environments the output is great. Seemingly the headphones do not defeat exterior noise so the result is often a mixture of everything that is going on my side of the call. Functionality is awesome...as long as you're in an enviro that is not noisy you will love 'em.

Yes, they are great for running. The sound is perfect. My solitary complaint is that they are a bit too bulky for my ears to hold up. Otherwise they are great

You can but not recommended. I would suggest the powerbeats wireless headphones for running.

Given the nature of these headphones, they do not isolate noise. Meaning people near you might hear some of your music, and you will hear both your music and a bit of the environment around you (not the best for bus rides). Consequently, I would not recommend these for walking or going on the bus.

They are earbuds, suitable for street walking running ir biking, since they are not noise isolating

Sure. These are essentially earplugs with built-in headphones. If you don't listen to anything, they still block noise effectively.

It would work great for jogging. Only remember that if your volume is turned up too high it might pose a safety risk because if you have to cross a street, for example, you might not hear a car approaching. Also, the headphones are pretty good.

I wouldnt recommend them for running. The protective earshell, although very comfortable, would not do well against perspiration. Better keep them indoors. The sound quality is amazing though -especially considering the price- and I'd recommend them for listening to music at home.

I would say they block about 90% of outside noise. However when listening to it loud people next to you will hear your music. For the money you can't beat these headphones.

I would consider these headphones to be only fair in isolation. You can hear quite a bit going on "outside".

No, if you are looking for headphones to run with headphones orverall isnt a wise choice. I would recommend running earphones or regular earphones.

They won't prevent you from hearing loud noises like say a motorcycle or truck when your out jogging,walking, etc (which may be a good thing) but they do a decent job of letting you hear the music with minimum interference. I think they are worth the price. You can spend more for better earbuds but if your looking for decent sound without high price they are worth the money.

Possibly will. The beats work best for noise cancelling, but for the price of these, they work out well too, plus some soothing music will surely help.

Yes you can hear anything around you as if ypu didnt have them in when there is no sound coming through them. It does not block the ear canal. You can still hear thing like cars and people talking when the volumn isn't to high. They are not like traditional headphones that block the ear canal.
