    Hi. I had the same problem. Went to Walmart and got the "over-the-ear" type of headphones. Have had the same pair for 4 years now! They work great, never fall off, and are not uncomfortable to wear. No name brand either. Just the generic type. Go check out Walmart or Target. Good luck!

    I had the SAME problem!! I would run and once I starting getting sweaty or going fast, they would fall out and basically ruin my run cause I'd be CONSTANTLY fixing them. Before I used the standard iPod headphones, and now I use skullcandy, which has little rubber ear pieces on the end so that they fit into your ears and STAY THERE! I've gone on 10+ mile runs with them and NEVER had any issues now :)

    PS your comparison picture is INSANELY AWESOME!! YOU LOOK INCREDIBLE!!! :)

    I can't use the Apple ones that come with an Ipod. They don't stay in at all. I was going to buy the Skull Candy ones, but was having trouble justifying the cost when the ones I have aren't that old. But, if they stay in.. I can justify it.

    Thanks for the compliment! :)

    Target has skullcandy headphones for $9.99, if you can find them on sale they are only $7.99

    And here I thought *I* was the only one with this problem! Always feel better knowing other people are having the same issues. :)

    I have the ones that have a loop that goes around the back of your ear. I have small ears too and these do run a little big but I can always position them so they stay in place.

    Same here. The ones that come with my iPod don't work for me at all when I'm moving. Shoot, sometimes they fall out just when I'm sitting at my desk. I think I have the same Sony pair another poster mentioned. They were under $24 and they're great.

    I have Skullcandy earbuds. They work great!
    These are the ones I use and they don't fall out. If I run (which is almost never) sometimes I have to just re adjust from time to time, but they don't fall out.
