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.

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.

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.

I just do a fast-paced walk on treadmills...not brave enough to run. It seems to be OK for my "speed"Sorry I couldn't be of more help

I wear them, so women can wear them too. They are nice and thin. Haven't had a problem with them moving or crawling in my shoe. Good luck.

I have not had that problem, nor has the guy who recommended it to me. I don't put it to aggressive use though. I love it, and its very comfortable to carry on your back while carrying other gear. Highly recommended for cost.

This only happens when I am walking down hill. I find I must keep my hands on the brakes to avoid it when going down hills

hmmm... I don't have this problem at all. Maybe you have longer legs than me, I am quite short. Maybe you need the next size bigger?

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

I have the same exact situation as you, and at first they used to slip a bit, but soon the top layer becomes more grippy and now I don't have any issues. I think washing it helped in my case. There might be some smoothing agent or shine agent applied to them that washes off and then they are a bit more usable with dress shoes.

Similar concern here. Really feel the balls of my feet when I walk or stand for extended periods of time. These insoles help quite a bit. For the $$$, a good investment. Will it clear it up completely; no. But they will ad comfort for sure.

You shouldn't have any problem with it moving. Mine doesn't. It is very comfortable. I'm glad I got them!

I do not have that problem. It slides slightly when I first start running, but then settles into position.

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.

As the other person said, they probably are too big for you. I do not walk or run with them, just do floor and sitting exercises, and they move around some even if I tighten them as much as possible.

I usually have the same problem, but these ones work great!! stay in my ears. even when I accidentally tug on the cord a bit, they usually stay in. My favorite headphones for running I ever have had!
