Solid performer.

Good ribbed ear buds that provide a strong seal with the right rubber seal from among three size choices. Sound quality OK, but during swimming it does not get perfect anyway. The black around-the-ear loops do hurt a bit compared to Lavod earphones of a similar type that I have used. Also: they need to be inserted snugly to keep the seal. Once the seal is broken while you're in the water, the transducer is wetted and the sound is muffled until they are completely dried. However, when you get them in really snug, the rubber seal can get stuck in your ear, as it comes off relatively easily from the buds! I have not found this a big deal, as I can grab the rubber seal by its back "plug" and pull it out, but beware. Using the smaller seals they provided did not help: they don't seal and then water goes in. I've had 2 of these, with a mean life of about 100 miles of swimming in pool water before one channel goes bad. That's pretty par for the course for such earbuds, and still a very cheap entertainment for long swims and long miles on a per-mile basis.

not too bad

these work good, they work well in the pool and sound pretty good (could be a little better but i didnt want to spend too much) these where replacements for my sony over the ear i have had for about 2 years they decided to quit on me so i went with these in hopes they would resist the sweat better. the biggest complaint i have is the over ear part is very soft and flimsy and ended up falling off if im running or lifting weights overhead. so they work good just dont fit right or at least as good as the sony ones i previously had.
