Find the Right Sport Headphones for You
Consider the different types of headphones available when making your selection:
- Earbuds and running headphones are light and compact, sitting comfortably outside the ear. Some styles feature a wrap-around hook that secures the headphones to your ears.
- In-ear monitors, or IEMS, resemble ear buds, but are inserted in your ear, resting in your ear canal as you listen.
- Full-size headphones cover the ear, often providing a wider sound range than smaller versions of headphones. Look for plush padding around the ear area for comfort.
Single- or dual-button controls on your device's cord let you easily control music, volume and even take calls on your smartphone. Use your headphones to make a statement. Earbuds, earphones and headphones come in a variety of styles and colors.
If you're planning on hitting the gym with your earbuds, ensure they are designed for an ergonomic fit. Flexible silicon offers a soft, comfortable fit that adapts to your ear. Some headphones are designed for sweat and water resistance, so you can condition with confidence.
Always consult product information to ensure your headphones are compatible with your phone or media player.
