Will have to get them online. Although... just got back from running with new 'Technika' (think this is Tesco's own brand) ones that are the 'plug' ones and they were very good. Although... I looped the wire through the back of my headband and because it's very tight to my head, they didn't wriggle about or come out. Hoorah

It seems to make no difference whether I get cheapies or expensive ones. Anyone have any they are loving right now? Like the OP I have small ears and don't get on with a lot of them and it annoys the piss out of me when they fall out.

Wobbling Sep 2013 6:55pm, 24 Sep 2013 2,805 posts	Quote Pin Wobbling I've had them since June and like all headphones, they don't get treated to well. I tend to fling them into a handbag, or a drawer. I use them on 3 out of 4 runs a week, I guess.
