I bought these as a substitute to having to takemy mobile phone on jogs. The wires kept gettingtangled and big an bulky. When I saw these on one of the special emails sent through and at adiscounted price at the time I thought why not. As usual the timeframe of postage wasfast. These are great for running. It took a a while for me to work out how to turn down thevolume but I knew there had to be away and yepthere is. There are two things that I think could be improved. 1 the blue inserts keep falling out Ive had to superglue my sons inand will probably do mine too. 2 Sometimes theydont always sit snuggly in the ear but I wouldrecommend these headphones to anyone who likesto jog or walk and listen to music.
