Specific headphones for running?

Question

alright, the little earbuds that come with my ipod dont stay in when im running. so, i went and bought a pair from walmart that go around behind the ear (and without foam) but those fall out too. i tried sliding the back part into my hair to make them stay a little longer, which helped...a little. i run fast paced, and very determined, it is hard when my headphones keep falling out! i look goofy with my hands fixing my ears for my whole run.

what specific headphones did you buy? mine were pretty cheap from walmart, and i know to get the ones that go around your ear.

(plus, i have small ears, so idk if that makes it harder for the "one size fits all" to work for me. are there any that form to your ear?)

thanks!

Answer 1

i suggest using cd player headphones, they adjust to ur head just right and stay on tight!  i use them all the time when i go running by myself.  If those dont work try [this is gonna sound weird] putting tape on ur ears across the ipod headphones, it worked for me until i bought the cd player headphones.  When it was winter i used to wear a hat or earmuffs over my earbuds, i no weird right?  hope this helps! <3

Answer 2

i use iLove headphones that go around the ear...they may be the ones you have since they are available at walmart and are pretty cheap. skullcandy also has lots of good headphones available. i haven't used the around ear headphones, but have on ear and buds. the flamin buds are amazing and stay in my ears great..they also come with changeable rubber covers for your small ears. they come with three and i had to use different ones for each ear because i have odd ear cannals that are different sizes. i love them and skullcandy is a reaaly great and trustworthy brand. i love everything i've got fromthem. they have a large variety of shapes and colors to chose from so i'm sure they have something for you! they are also a decent price if thats what your looking for. if price isn't a matter, bose is a great quality brand and have headphones specified for running.
