Buy Walking Videos180s Ear Warmer Stereo Headphones
Running outside in Salt Lake City has become impossible for me because we are experiencing an inversion and the air quality is worse than L.A. on a hot summer’s day, but if you are able to run outdoors, I’m sure you would appreciate these Ear Warmer Headphones from 180s. They look nice and warm and also let you listen to your tunes. I actually like them better than the Walkman Beanies that I saw at CES last month.
My only question is that if this is a “behind the ear” design, how does it stay on your ears? If I run, will it fall off? This is one reason why I hate shopping for headphones. You really can’t know how they’ll work when you exercise unless you take a run with them and get them all sweaty.
Gadgets like these can’t make you thin, but they might make the difference between going for your walk outside and skipping your exercise for the day.

Cool! I sure could use one of those up here in Scandinavia. Running outdoors is such a pain in the winter. Those headphones could make it a bit easier. Guess I will have to order them from the US…

I have these and they work pretty good, my only problem is it takes a while into my walk/run to get them situated on my neck so they don’t feel like they are falling off. But they sure beat the old earplugs under the muffs.

Maybe you can wear a hat on top of them. But then again, in that case you could just use the good old earplugs I guess.

Ear warmer headphones is a great idea. I actually never came across a pair of these. I live in Toronto and it can get cold in the winter. My biggest problem is that my ears freeze while jogging. I need to find a pair of these headphones.
