    Good earphones?

    I asked this at some previous point but never acted on the responses. Now I can't find them. I exercise with an iPod and while I realize that iPods don't give you incredible sound quality, I want to upgrade from the stock ones I have been using. Regular earbuds stay in my substantial ears even when I am running hard, so they don't have to be made for exercising with.

    What do people use?

            These? Do you use them for exercise? It certainly looks like you could. And the price isn't over the moon either.

              the truck would hit you so the driver could take your beats by dre.

              I am not advocating practicing unsafe running etiquette. If you choose to run with beats by dre, I still recommend running a safe, well-lit route, be mindful of traffic, run with a friend when possible, and always stay properly hydrated (like carrying a water bottle when you golf using a cart)

                    I think this is supposed to be a dig, but I'm not sure what to make of it. Golfing in Vegas means you can never have enough water. But I'm sure you'd agree!

                      I have Shure's that are amazing. Given the way I sweat though I don't exercise with them because they're too expensive.

                        Same. Shure is awesome.

                        I picked up a pair of V-modas from Costco today. They sound good and have detachable ear hooks to make them stay on while exercising.

                          I have the Shure SE210. I also have a pair of Shure SCL-3. Both are wonderful.

                            I've been looking for a pair to use while running, and those sound perfect.

                              In all my years of running with headphones I've found that the stock buds that come with the ipod are the best.. the right combo of sound and air for running in comfort.
