Can anyone recommend a good Bluetooth stereo headphones for working out?

I have a "Motorola" S9 that I got off eBay. I put it in quotes because I'm pretty sure it's an Asian knock-off product. They work well and sound great for the most part, except they always shorted out during my workout due to sweat. They'd still work, but I couldn't shut them off. Then, after about 2 months of use, the headband snapped.

So now I'm in the market for a new pair. The Moto S10's seem to have very mixed reviews at best. They're marketed as "sweat resistant" but a lot of the reviews say they are not.

I don't sweat that much while working out, but obviously your head sweats before just about anything else while running or other aerobic exercise, and these things sit right on top of that.

I'd prefer something that also doubled as a phone headset, like the Moto's do.

Any advice?

I have the Arctic Sound off of Amazon and they seem to work and fit good but I don't work out so no idea on the sweat issue.

I run on the treadmill and lift with my sennheiser mm450's. No problems or signs of wear in 12 months. I also use them as noise canceling headphones for travel - only about 50% as over the ear models, but still drowns out even the loudest pissed off baby.

I've used the same Motorola S305 for over a year with no troubles. Running inside and out (90s to below zero) and beaten the crap out of them in the process. Sat on them, packed them willy-nilly into computer bags and luggage, still work great. I'm kind of amazed, really. Good for making calls too.

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
