SPORTS IN-EAR HEADPHONES

Eight pairs of the best sports headphones for when we can get out and about again

-

We’ve probably all spent a lot longer indoors than we intended this year. So if your New Year’s resolution­s include working off the effects of lockdown in 2020, you’ll need a pair of sports headphones to accompany you in your chosen exercise regime.

When we think of sports headphones, the first thing that comes to mind may be true wireless in-ear headphones, but they can also take the form of in-ear buds connected by a wire or neckband. When choosing a pair of sports headphones, sonic performanc­e is a considerat­ion, of course, but perhaps even more important is the fit.

If you are listening to music on the treadmill or out jogging, you’ll need a pair that will be able to withstand the rigours of your workout – both in terms of a comfortabl­e, secure fit and a durable finish, including being sweat-proof.

Here, we round-up eight examples of the best sports headphones, ranging in price from £55 to £249, and as you’ll see, there is plenty of choice and some affordable prices. So fingers crossed that we can all get out and about more in 2021 – whether you’re hitting the gym or pounding the streets, there should be a pair of sports headphones here to help you enjoy your freedom to run once again.
