Yarbuds earphones

Barneystinson

Anyone use these for running / activities? I've been a pretty faithful user of Skull Candy in-ear buds, but my latest pair is already starting to crackle and fade after only 2 months of use. I need something that will stand up to sweat and the elements and keep cranking out tunes

Heya Barneystinson. I have not tried the Yurbud phones, but I never had much luck with in-ear buds and working out. So I decided to go with a pair of Koss PortaPro headphones (over the ear) and I love em. Yeah it doesn't look cool, but I have never been about that. I just wanted something that would put up with my abuse and these definitely do it and they sound great, and I never have to worry about them popping out of my ears. I have worn em while running in thunderstorms and snowstorms and have had them for several years now, I would have to say around ten. They fold up and stash pretty well in a backpack or a glove box. They are still making that model too, so other people must like em as well. The only thing that eventually wears out is the foam pads that go over the ear, but the pads are super cheap and I have only had to replace mine just within the past year, so that's nine years of tough wear and tear on em. The last time I checked, Amazon had the phones for about 33 bucks, and a set of three pairs of replacement pads for under five bucks. Anyway, that's just my two cents, happy trails to ya!

I've got some h2o audio flex earbuds, they are totally waterproof so sweat doesn't affect them. I use mine for swimming too never had any problems!
