JayBird Bluetooth Sports Headphones


My podcast listening has dropped off, but my concentration is surely up.
Which is why I won’t be buying these Bluetooth sports headphones from JayBird, despite the fact that they’ll probably never distract the wearer by falling out of the ears.

The Bluetooth headphones actually have a cable joining them together, which runs behind your neck.
The units themselves come with a flat, Paisley-shaped (or sperm-shaped) hook, made from a squashable, honeycomb material.
These squeeze inside your ears and grab onto the nooks and crannies therein, securing them against the most violently head-shaking of sports.

The buds, which double up as a microphone headset for your phone, are also water-sealed against dripping sweat, the downfall of many a pair of earbuds in my home.
They’re even reasonably priced, at $100. I’d also like to see a wired version with the same ear-grabbing tech.
