For those who can’t stop talking on the phone while they hike Runyon Canyon

JVC appeals to the fashion conscious with a new streamlined sports headphones, great for hiking and blabbing on hikes

While a lot of headphone manufacturers jumped on the Bluetooth wireless bandwagon after Apple revealed its iPhone 7 headphone-jack-less design, JVC hit the sweet spot for those who want a stylish headphone set that can be worn doing just about anything, so you never have to hang up, even if your loud convo is annoying everyone hiking up and down Ruynon Canyon.

JVC’s latest headset, the HA-ET50BT-A ($79.95), is fashioned with anti-slip, water resistant materials and has a pivot motion fit, which is basically is an inch-long elbow-shaped rubber fin that can be rotated to nestle into the curve of the ear. The benefit of this fit is that it helps keep the headphone in the ear, of course, but also it allows the user to wear sunglasses over the ear or helmets and hats without any interference.

This headset also features an open type earbud with notches cut into the earpiece to allow ambient sound for safety when running or cycling along the roadside or other activity in an environment where you need to hear your surroundings. The open earpieces can be switched out for more dynamic sound as desired. The earphones come with a standard size earpiece and then five other sizes to choose from in the open and regular styles.

The USB-cable rechargeable 9-hour battery, which also doubles as the control center and microphone, is compact and lightweight, about two inches long, a quarter inch wide and about as thick as a flattened pencil. The control fob features raised buttons so the user can feel them rather than having to look at them to control them. The earphones themselves contain magnets, so when draped around the neck the ear phones cling to each other to hold them together like a necklace, so they will not fall off when worn around the neck when they are not in use. For those fashion-conscious athletes, the headphones are available in a choice of purple, yellow or black.

Bedsides all the fit features, these headphones deliver JVC’s renowned awesome robust and rich audio quality.

The concept behind these headphones is that serious athletes need stress-free headphones that stay in place so they can enjoy and be motivated by music while concentrating on their training, though you don’t have to be an athlete to wear them, and they will definitely go with your designer compression pants.
