I am pretty rough on my headphones, I do everything with them. I have been through 5 iphone earbud headphones and one Beats. The only ones that dont break are the ones that go over my head which i use for work, but like most people i work out with headphones. I end up losing hearing in one of the buds or they both break i think its the sweat and the cord getting torn up. Are there some solid headphones out there that wont break from sweat and the cord aint going to break?
Try in-ear buds. Skull candy if you like bass; I don't recommend if you're not really into that kind of music though. Bose in-ear if you feel like forking over 100$. Ugh, there are a shit ton more that I'm leaving out, here's a site to get reviews on brands: Buying Guide: Earbuds Under $100 | Product Reviews | Wired.com I personally rock Bose. Edit: From experience, the more you pay, the more durable
