My earphones keeps falling out whenever I do my workout. What earphones are you guys using? I'm looking for cheap ones (preferably one I can buy at Walmart).

    Skull Candy are the best! They come with different size rubber fittings too! You should be able to find them at Walmart too, probably around $18.

    I love SnuggBuds... they are like surround sound in your head! They come in regular, smartphone (with microphone for use as a wired headset), and a cloth-wrapped version that doesn't get tangled like standard rubber cords. They are great!

    How much are those? Don't want to spend over $25 on a headphone that I'll only use for my workout.

    Shure earbuds. They are a little pricey, but will NOT fall out. I had the same problem and I started using my husband's. They are great! I have taken them over and now he has to get them from me if he needs to use them. Haha!

    SnuggBuds aren't sold at Wal-Mart, so they're probably more than you'd like to spend. I've only seen them at (running) race expos.... I think they're closer to $30. I use them all the time because I commute an hour each way to work on a train. (They definitely block out the sound of the train and talking people! Haha!)

    i tried all of those types, but they kept falling out because i have freakishly small ears and a pin head.

    i also tried the philips ones that hook around the tops of your ears- the proper sporty ones. crap. but again maybe to do with my odd head.

    i'm now with the philips sporty ones that are on a solid band, but still hook into your ears. they're working mcuh better for me, but are taking a bit of getting used to.

    i say go with the skull candy's. if they don't suit, at least you know you can trade up.

    Seconded! The ones with a solid band that go round the back of the neck are the only ones that stay one for me.
