My Favorite Workout Headphones Are $40 Off During Amazon's Big Spring Sale
A while back I switched to running while wearing bone conduction headphones (BCH), and I have zero regrets.
Sure, they may never match the bass in traditional headphones, but a good pair can bring you perfectly solid sound quality—not to mention the comfort and safety that comes with an open-ear fit and BCH technology (they really do send sound through your bones ).
Right now my number one favorite headphones for running, the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 , are available for $139.95 as part of Amazon's Big Spring Sale , a 22% discount off their list price of $179.95.
As my colleague Daniel Oropeza noted in his review , the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 are the best set of BCHs that either of us have ever tried.
They're across the board winners: Sound quality, secure fit, and battery life.
(That last point is especially important for distance runners—even if I forget to charge the night before a long workout, a quick five-minute top-up gives me around 1.5 hours of listening time.) If you're looking for an even more affordable pair (without sacrificing quality), the original Shokz OpenRun are also on sale, down to $89.94 from a list price of $129.95.
They might not have as powerful bass or as long a battery life compared to the OpenRun Pro 2, but they live up to the Shokz name.
