These headphones are good enough for working out. The sound quality is acceptable for the price. They are a little tight around the ears for prolonged use (over 45 minutes). I like the added safety of the reflective ear piece when running outside.
Sound was good but too hot on the ears for exercising in the gym. I switched to the in ear headphones.
I got these to try and kill my hearing more slowly than earbud headphones, but these headphones are really uncomfortable. After about a half hour of wearing them, I get a headache because they are pushing into the back part of my ears. Maybe I just have a weird-shaped head, but try and look somewhere else for headphones tat won't cause you physical pain.
I use this primarily for running, workout or doing the dishes- it's light enough and water resistant, which makes it perfect for such purposes. It can get a bit too snug too; I find myself readjusting them or taking them out every hour or so. However, like all behind ear headphones, they don't really block out noise that well, so take that into your consideration. As a Sony product headphone, the bass is quite good, though it can be a bit too much sometimes in my opinion. Sound quality is not mind-blowing, but definitely solid for the price range.Cord length is adequate for workout- a bit longer than I would like, but better than being short. For the record, I'm about five nine.In short, you will be hard pressed to find a better workout headphone for the money.
That's about it: the music sound good coming through these earphones.But, damn, if they aren't tight. I often don't notice, but I really wish they were adjustable.
