Ok I’m beyond frustration on this issue so I decided to come to you folks for help. No joke, I’ve probably spent a thousand bucks in the last year or so on headphones for running/working out. I can’t find a pair that stays in my ear and plays music out of both buds after a few months of use. I’ve used every skullcandy known to man, some jvc’s, Sony and a pair of Adidas athletic wrap arounds. Nothing works like I want it to. Does anyone else on here have these issues or have advice? I’m open to anything and I don’t care how much it costs.

I love skullcandy.

I have a pair of Sony’s that I use at the gym, never had any issues with them.

Well,the issue with them and working out is the cord eventually drags them out of your ear not to mention gets in the way. I’ve dealt with a ton of different headphones over the years and athletes always seem to like the Bluetooth cordless ones as of late…

I use these bose headphones. They come with different size rubber pieces so you can adjust depending on the size of your ear.

I actually bought those and returned them. My $50 skulls sound the same and cost 1/2 the price. In hear headphones there isn’t much range you can go. Over the ear tho, Bose is a winner by far.
