Guys i'm looking for some good lightweight headphones for myself. Will be used just during my jogging etc. Currently i use earphones(bundled ones). Anyways, i have always preferred headphones over earphones. So please no earphone suggestions. Phones/iPod i use while running/jogging. iPod Nano 6th gen and Sony Arc S or Nokia c2-02.
Budget: Anyone between 1k-4k 5k if its Damn good.

Thanks
 
Try getting your favourite brand of Over-The-Ear ones as they wont fall off your ear no matter what.
 
Meelec a151, its got a cloth cable, so no tangling,microphonics etc and Melecs usually are decently built. It would be around 50-60$. The sound signature is warmth personified and mid centric with decent bass and rolled off treble.
 
I will recommend you the m35 if you can live with the long cable.it has more of a balanced performance in the audio technica offerings and provides an awesome sound-stage for its price.It also has a fantastic grip and wont prove a hindrance when you are on the move.

those 11 foot wires can tighten your body mate. :boxed:

For OP,

go with

Sennheiser Adidas which is sweet proof, kevlar reenforced durable wires and those fits so easily. so even jogging, no need to adjust the headphone.
go with models like MX680i or CX680i or PMX680i whichever you prefer.
 
Why in the world you need headphones for jogging ? You will look like some crazy psycho :P

Get any decent IEM that should suffice. Wont fall off during running session.

Seriously think again before jumping to headphones.
 
I just bought a Sennheiser PX80 and they sound Awesome.
They are Foldable and small. Cord length is also around 1.4M so its fine..
But I Seriously suggest you to get an IEM For jogging, rather than a Headphone!
 
Try and get a brainwavz m2. I used them for 2 years around my workout.those babies are tough nuts.

I am not looking for those huge ones. Looking for those um..like slick ones-like those which sticks to the back of the head or like that dunno how to put forward my words and lol I will look like a cartoon if i wore those huge headphones on my head while running.
P.S.- I really don't have much knowledge about these IEM basically in audio-sound-bass and stuff so please mind my words. :ashamed:
 
Whether its slick or huge headphone are more likely to fall off while running (given you are running not walking), plus the wire will come into your arm movement for sure.

Earphone are very small and are perfect companion for any kind of sports, IEM fits right in and don't fall (have used Pl11, 30, 21, Brainwavz Pro Alpha, Ep630 and many more) never had an issue with any of them
Get any IEM within your budget.
