Joggers, snowboarders, and other outdoor enthusiasts will delight in the Sony MDR-J20 headphones, as their contoured clips follow the curve of the ears to ensure a snug fit even when bouncing around. The headphones also feature a flexible ear hanger that reduces stress on the ear, along with an open-air design that lets in ambient sound without sacrificing the quality of the music. The latter function is particularly important when skateboarding or running, as users can listen for traffic noise and other audible threats. It's the audio, however, that matters to most listeners, and the MDR-J20 headphones deliver on that count, too. Each earpiece carries a powerful neodymium magnet that provides great sound at frequencies between 18 Hz and 22 kHz. Don't give in to poorly designed, bulky headphones that slow you down while exercising. The MDR-J20s, which weigh a mere 0.35 ounces, are a perfect fit. Less
Unique headphones with flex-shaped neckband for comfortable, secure fit during active or sports use. Bass enhanced for superior sound quality. Comfortable silicone earbuds.

Works Fine - Good Sound - They Stay On While Active

byraptorbill Aug 17, 2008

Pros Inexpensive Over the Ear Design, reasonably comfortable
Cons Sound is OK, not fantastic
Recommended it? Yes

I've been looking for the ultimate set of headphones while working out for decades. Exercising is boring, so I started with a Walkman (listening to taped audio books) and evolved over the years to my current iPod (listening primarily to Podcasts - mostly from National Public Radio).

Sony MDR-J20 is a unique, problematic headphone

bykc409 Nov 15, 2006
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros no tangle cord! over-ear strap
Cons the sound quality is not constant, not very hard to break
Recommended it? No

I run a little. Jog is a more fitting term for what I do. I'm not one of those authentic joggers either... I run on a treadmill at the gym. I've got an Ipod Mini and I like to make 25 minute track lists while i'm warming up and then do my thing. Anyway... after seeing two magazine ads in one week... Read full review »

Cons I have had no problems with this product! The price is perfect!!!
Recommended it? Yes

I have had my earphones for over a year now and I swear by them. I run for a minimum of two hours each time I run, and it feels like I am wearing wireless earphones. I have had skullcandy earbuds that died on me, and every stride I took I could hear the plastic wires bouncing and making weird... Read full review »

Headphones fine for running

byrrtash Oct 5, 2010
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Comfortable; Stay in place while running.
Cons Although they come with an extension cord, the primary cord could be longer.
Recommended it? Yes

I have been running for many years and have been using "over the head" headphones. These are my first behind the neck headphones which I purchased after doing on-line research. They are very comfortable and the ear buds stay in place, after you've selected the correct ones (they come with a... Read full review »
