Not sure about the longevity of having buds not connected by a wire, that's why I'm not considering the earpods by Apple, they will fall out and get lost.Comment

Jawbone Icon was my favourite, lost it though sometime ago...need to find a replacement..... That was for work though not gym"why ride a vespa when you can push a lambretta?"
As I look ahead, I am filled with foreboding; like the Roman, I seem to see "the River Tiber foaming with much blood."Comment

I've got a set of Bose earphones. Very comfy, no peripheral sounds. Not sure what model, though; got them free as an apology when something wasn't right with the Videowave kit we'd got.The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't existComment

I got them so I could run in traffic and wear at events but all I could hear is the bloody traffic and no music. So if I wear headphones while running on pavements or events I wear my normal cheapish sports ones for running off-road turned down.
I would give the bone conduction ones away if I could find them...."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

They're awesome - use them for running + cycling. You can still hear stuff clearly around you. In fact they're the only headphones I'd consider whilst cycling...
I put down some words about the previous version:

The newer ones are a bit better as they have a titanium spring in the neck piece (I think) which means that they're a bit more robust.And the lord said unto John; "come forth and receive eternal life." But John came fifth and won a toaster.Comment
