I need new headphones for my runs. I am looking for ones that are wireless/Bluetooth, will stay in my ears as well as comfortable. Any recommendations?

    I use JayBird BlueBuds X. They are a bit complicated at first (to get the right fit and setup for your ear). Once you get them right, they pretty much stay put (they do loosen when I really sweat). They are the best I've found so far.

    They do cost a bit more. They sound great (great for BT headphones, that is).

    I have JayBird Freedom Sprints (I think they're the "cheaper" version of the JayBirds), and they're pretty good. They generally are very secure, battery life is good, and they're constructed in a way that, while the sound is very good, you can still hear background noise—useful when you're running on city streets like I do.

    I don't know if they make wireless, but YurBuds have been great for me. I have funny-shaped ears and nothing stays in, except the YurBuds.

    I've got the JayBird BlueBuds X as well. Took a couple weeks to get a fit that worked for me, but love them. Have had them about one and a half years. No issues.

    Okay - I'm going to color slightly out of bounds here, but I'm going to recommend the Bose SoundTrue in-ear earbuds. They're wired. I know you asked for wireless/Bluetooth but I am so sick to death of the crappy Bluetooth interfaces on most consumer gear that I decided to stick with the wire. One less battery to worry about. One less Bluetooth connection to worry about (Is my phone connected to my car? my Apple Watch? my earbuds? my wife's car?) - I just plug in and go.

    I am on my second pair - I washed and dried the first pair, which is apparently not good for them - especially when they get all rolled up into one hot little ball of semi-melted plastic coated wire. They are more money - but they sound awesome, never fall out of my ears, and I have had zero frustration with any connection issues.
